5.0 out of 5 stars JANE FONDA'S PREGNANCY, BIRTH, AND RECOVERY WORKOUT, February 3, 2000

By 

Barbara Sanders (OREGON, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pregnancy Birth & Recovery [VHS] (VHS Tape)

JANE FONDA'S VIDEO WAS VERY EFFECTIVE DURING MY SECOND PREGNANCY. I HAD PROBLEMS DURING MY FIRST PREGNANCY WITH HIP PAIN, LOW ENDURANCE, AND FATIGUE. WEIGHT GAIN WAS ALSO A PROBLEM. I USED THE VIDEO IN THE MORNINGS THREE TO FIVE TIMES A WEEK. IT WAS VERY STRENUOUS BUT VERY EFFECTIVE. I LOST 10 POUNDS DURING THAT PREGNANCY AS COMPARED TO A GAIN OF 50 POUNDS FOR THE FIRST. IT HAS BEEN 12 YEARS AND 2 ADDITIONAL PREGNANCIES SINCE THAT TIME AND I AM ORDERING THE TAPE NOW TO HELP ME GET BACK IN SHAPE AT 47 YEARS OLD. I KNOW IT WILL HELP ME REACH MY GOAL OF FIT BY 50. THANKS JANE!

1.0 out of 5 stars What A Disappointment!, March 25, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Pregnancy Birth & Recovery [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you were in decent pre-pregnancy shape, this video will be too easy for you. There's no aerobic portion and the floor exercises are very boring. Plus, it's annoying. The 80s feel is hard to overcome. And the part where they haul the babies out and Jane Fonda looks at them adoringly made me laugh. I even played it for my husband so he could laugh too. I consider this a waste of money. I wish videos were returnable.

2.0 out of 5 stars Boring and slow, January 6, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Pregnancy Birth & Recovery [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I find this workout to be boring, slow, and uninspiring. I used it with my first pregnancy eight years ago and recently tried to exercise with it. It is old and outdated. The newer videos for pregnancy workout feature a fun aerobics segment which this workout omits. Some of the techniques in the exercises do not match what is said on the newer videos today. The newer videos I have found state that they conform with the Guildlines of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. I feel safer performing movements that have been deemed okay for pregnant women. Also, in the videos I have, the instructors are pregnant themselves. I highly recommend the Kathy Smith Pregnancy workout along with the Buns of Steel Pregnancy workout.
Get both for variety for almost the price of this one video.
