As we get older, gravity becomes our worst enemy. But the gravity-fighting exercises in this workout, claims instructor Denise Austin, will help firm up arms and thighs, shrink the waistline, lift and tone chest and buttock muscles, and increase your metabolism so you burn fat faster. Actually, this is a traditional aerobics class set to sing-along oldies such as Good Vibrations, You're Still the One, Mony Mony, and Joy to the World. Austin is accompanied by a class of both men and women, all slim and fit. This 45-minute workout includes 20 minutes of aerobics with simple choreography, using familiar moves such as marches, knee lifts, kicks, lunges, grapevines, twists, and the pony. If you're an aerobic-dance novice, don't worry--the moves are repeated enough to get them. A 15-minute toning segment is done without weights: leg lifts, squats, lunges, abs, and pushups. A nice 10-minute stretch sequence finishes your workout. This video is best for beginning to intermediate exercisers who like simple choreography, or for someone who hasn't worked out in a while. --Joan Price

4.0 out of 5 stars Beware of duplicate tapes disguised with new covers..., August 7, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Denise Austin - Anti-Aging Cardio Dance Workout [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Although this workout is useful, I had already owned the exact same tape under the title, Fit and Fabulous At Any Age. When I saw the Anti-Aging Cardio workout video, I naturally assumed I had never seen it, thought it might be good and ordered it online. To my surprise, I opened the tape (which I was told once opened cannot be returned!) to find the same video under the Fit and Fabulous title. That the tape was duplicated under a different title was very misleading, and to be told that once opened, a tape cannot be returned, is deceiving, since I obviously had to open the tape to view it. I've heard this has happened before with workout tapes, and since I use workout tapes as the major part of my workouts, perhaps it should be noted that some tapes are copies under a new title/cover.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Total Workout, March 15, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Anti-Aging Cardio Dance Workout [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have used many of Denise's video and they are all excellent. I workout aerobically 5-6 times a week and jog over a mile each day and I still found this video a challenge. It was wonderful. It incorporated excellent stretches, a wonderful upbeat workout, toning exercises, and stress relieving yoga. I felt great afterwards. This is an excellent video if you are looking for something that has it all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart pumping, break out in sweat...fun!, September 16, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Denise Austin - Anti-Aging Cardio Dance Workout [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I checked out this video at my local library just to try it...and I love it! Honestly, as a beginner I can't do all the moves right now. But the music is so upbeat and the moves fairly easy and fun that you just keep going. The toning and streching segments are great too. It gets my heart pumping and I know I'm boosting my metabolism.
