  Jane
Fonda's Low Impact Aerobic Workout is the sixth video in the
Workout series, and by far, one of the best.
This innovative routine combines low impact aerobics with thorough
stretch routines to give your body a total workout. |
The
class is composed of:
6 minute warm-up
35 minute low-impact aerobics
10 minute cool-down
The class offers more advanced users to add progressively heavier
wrist weights to add intensity to their aerobic workout. The combination
of weights and aerobics not only burns fat, but will build the muscles
in your arms. If you are a beginner, do not use wrist weights.
When you have become very familiar with this program, begin adding
half-pound wrist weights, and increase in half-pound increments
every 4-6 weeks until you have worked up to about 2 pounds per wrist.
Jane advises a maximum of 1 pound per wrist, but weights at the
1.5 and 2 pound level (which Jane's fitness line manufactured) can
be safely and effectively used for this class.

Also, this class has what is perhaps the best stretching in any
of Jane's videos. The warm-up and cool-down are well-coreographed
and demonstrated.
The exercises will surely help one to increase their flexibility.
|
  
The music is very energetic, combining country-style and upbeat
steal-drum-like mixture of Caribbean and fun latin jazz, similar
to the musical backgrounds used in the Stress Reduction Program.
It makes for excellent music to background the high energy, dance-like
aerobic moves. |
 
Jane leads this program entirely by herself.
She leads ten other, very energetic students in this well-paced
and clearly-instructed program. |
 This
class also has some comic relief, with the addition of student Peter
Sprague, who "wanders in to the studio during taping."
His foolishness is not to be missed. This
is one of Jane's workouts that is truly for every fitness level.
New users will enjoy the low impact movements and length, while
advanced users will enjoy the optional wrist weight usage and
the many ways to intensify the workout. During the workout, Jane
makes allowances for the participant's physical problems, making
the workout enjoyable for many, and not just for the physically
fit. Some of the stretches can be difficult for beginners, but
modifications are demonstrated for those
unable to complete them.
 This
class is perfect to put in place of the aerobic sections of the
earlier Workouts that include high-impact aerobics. Still love
your Original Workout
but need more than 2 minutes of aerobics? Here's your answer.
Combining this program with other workouts will ensure a total
body workout.
For
those looking to build muscles while getting a great cardio-workout,
consider combining this program with Total
Body Sculpting if you are a beginner, and combining
it with Workout with Weights
if you are more advanced. If you are looking to use this in combination
with a total body workout that does not use additional weight-resistance
equipment, combine this with the Original
Workout or the New
Workout.
Seventeen
years after its release, this remains one of the most effective
workouts ever produced. For optimal results, combining this and
the Complete Workout
and maintaning a good dietary program will ensure you amazing
results. |
