Way back at the beginning of the Aerobics craze, Ron Harris put out a video called Aerobicise: Beautiful Workout. This showed a number of women in spandex (a new material at the time) performing rhythmically, and some say erotically, in a stark white studio. The implied eroticism of this film (seen briefly in a scene of Risky Business) has been brought to full fruition in these two new films.

This disk contains two nearly-identical films with only a difference in coverage. Ron Harris's Nude Aerobics is just that. Scenes of women bouncing in aerobic poses almost identical to the original Aerobicise. There is no talking or explanations as to what each movement will help or provide but anyone who can keep up will definitely be in shape.

The second film, Ron Harris's New Aerobics, is identical to the first except that the women involved and wearing colorful spandex and not their birthday suits.

The nude version includes extra footage for those who are watching for more than just exercise. When a small camera appears in the lower right corner, just hit the menu button on your remote and you will get a minute or two of a closer and often more explicit camera angle. To scan through this footage, just advance to the start of each track and hit the menu button. If the track has extra footage, you will see it at this point without having to wait for the camera icon.

Nicely put together with a professional look. The stark-white set offers no distraction and adds an arty quality to the visuals. The original Aerobicise offered four "workouts" but this disk has more and each can be accessed directly by way of the menu.

This is one of my favorite movies (of its kind) -- from the late `90's. In one sense, it's a kind of visually appealing exercise video - with an entrancing disco-like soundtrack.

In another sense, it's a very beautiful portrayal of aerobics - which elevates the activity to be on par aesthetically with synchronized swimming.

And lastly, by offering us both "clothed" and "nude" versions (which follow one another on the disc), Ron Harris, the creator, has given us something that is either the sexiest aerobics video ever recorded -- or the ultimate workout video parody - or both!

Hey, let's face it. Aerobics is not just about exercise. It's also about looking sexy - both during and after the workout.

And for men - who probably end up undressing the women working out with their eyes anyway - this video saves them the trouble of having to tax their imaginations so strenuously!

Each version of the video features ten workout segments; Stretching, Jumping, Group Stretching, Squats and Bends, Crunches, Body Movement, Aerobics, Cool Down, Leg Lifts, and a Group Finale.

All of the girls (in the first half) are wearing thong-style leotards - which, as a costume choice, is probably a little ahead of its time! This garment selection also adds emphasis to each girl's hips and shapely rear - while also making her legs look incredibly long!

The cute babe who appears on the cover, incidentally - is featured solo in scene nine - "Cool Down." Not only is she just as gorgeous in the video (both clothed and nude), if not more so - there are also some enticing close-ups of just her lips - which reminded me of my own experiences receiving enthralling lap dances from other female performers. (But that's another story . . . )

The women who perform are all fit, but in a feminine non-steroid kind of way. There are no six-pack abs, thank goodness - nor any tattoos or body piercings as well. Without exception -- all of the women's curves are enticingly soft!

Each babe appears either alone or in an arranged group of women. And most of the performances take place on a giant revolving turntable - set against a totally white background - so the beauty of the girls is, without a doubt -- the primary focus of this video.

There is a bevy of nice facial shots -- and all of the women are mysteriously attractive with deep-set eyes and ruby-ripe lips. Also present in each vignette is a teasing array of glances - "you know where" - that are all brief and tastefully captured.

But it's the overhead views - taken while the girls perform on a gigantic ever-turning Lazy Susan - which brilliantly reveals this aerobic sport's undeniable resemblance to women's synchronized swimming! (But please, don't just take my word on it!)


Moving on, as good as the "clothed" rendition is -- the disc takes on a whole new dimension when one switches over to the "nude" version.

The individual and group performances from the ten scenes in the "clothed" rendering - are then duplicated exactly in the "nude" presentation - to provide us with a very heady aesthetic experience indeed!

As my husband explained it -- "It's like having x-ray vision -- which is every adolescent boy's ultimate fantasy come true! "

Moving in tighter, given this video's production year - the girls aren't totally clean-shaven - which actually endows each performer with a much more natural appearance. But the most intimate shots are probably much briefer because of it!

Lastly, all of the girls are attractively firm-breasted (with silver dollar-sized areolas or smaller) - which definitely adds to the video's allure - rather than creating a distraction!


In terms of usage, I sometimes find myself playing this video while I'm in the kitchen cooking -- as a wake-up video for my husband in the morning - or occasionally as a refreshing (visual and aural) pick-me-up in the afternoon when I'm alone!

As a suggestion for the present -- perhaps Mr. Harris could offer us a remake - where the girls are totally clean-shaven (and maybe sporting some body art or other adornments). This would allow the camera to linger longer - and closer - while still retaining the delightfully sensuous visual appeal of the original! (Hey, maybe the times have changed - for the better!)

If you enjoy the beauty of nude women (moving), `Totally Nude Aerobics' is a video classic that will still entertain - ten or even twenty years into the future -just as it does now! Don't miss out!


p.s. I should also mention -- that the unclothed version contains bonus footage scattered throughout - which ups the intimacy level significantly! Enjoy.

If you want an instructional workout video then go with something by Kathy Ireland or Denise Austin... this vid is simply naked women doing aerobics. From a straight male's perspective it's absolutely awesome and very entertaining, but don't expect this to be an instructional workout video as that is NOT it's purpose. The women are very attractive and energetic and of course VERY nude! But then again, that's the point isn't it?

Finally the erotic nude workout DVD I have been dreaming of!

7 gorgeous women (with natural breasts) perform fast-paced exercises while cameras artfully pan back and forth over their bodies. There are about 10 exercises with up to 4 ladies exercising at a time. They are placed in interesting positions to each other in a completely white studio that does not distract from the main attraction.

The workout is shown twice, clothed and nude, and both are worth viewing. The clothed version shows the ladies from very titillating angles, more so than the nude version (for example, in the jumping jacks exercise.) However, there are still many times in the nude version where you will clearly be able to see all details. Thankfully, the DVD allows you to select slow-motion play for about 20 seconds' worth of the most revealing camera shots of every exercise routine. The girls are exercising vigorously but smile every now and then, which really endears them to you.

The way the cameras pan over the bodies, initially showing only part of an arm or similar, shows the DVD is not meant to actually work out by, as it is initially hard to tell exactly what movements are being made. It has the effect of whetting your appetite to see more. Sometimes that can be bothersome, though, if it continues too long. The music is upbeat but slightly repetitive.

Bottom line: Ron Harris did a wonderful job. More, more, more!

If you like this, consider Totally Nude Yoga and Tai Chi, Nude Stretching and Nude Tai Chi, where beautiful women (enhanced breasts in the latter two videos) perform slower exercises, in an elegantly erotic way. My wife likes all of these, too.

This video is for those persons who will enjoy seeing women's bodies in motion. The human form, especially one in good shape, is a delight to behold. Totally nude gives the viewer a chance to view not just the form but also the musculature of a body in motion. As you might have guessed this video is not an instructional workout video, but it is one of entertainment that will be enjoyable to the viewer.

The nude part goes for 1 hour and then there is another hour where they do basically the same moves with clothes on. The camera angles get very annoying after a while as, for some strange reason, there is a tendency to focus on the knee, or the small of the back, or the top of the head and so on. The camera shots from above get quite annoying after a while!

The 'close up' extra's are good but mainly repeats in slo-mo of stuff already on the tape. The vision is clear and fairly sharp. The music is average. The photo gallery is OK.

All things considered this was a wasted opportunity for much of the show.

Oh, and the actual exercises are a bit strange and I'm not sure that many of them would be used in a normal aerobics class (wouldn't recommend following this to get fit, more as a warm up)

this is about attractive women exercising naked , the camera work is good ,the models are attractive with very nice bodies,it is an erotic video not an exercise video, if you are looking for erotica, this is good.

I've owned this DVD for some time now. I've watched it several times and enjoyed it very much each and every time. The women are beautiful and seem
to be really having fun as they exercise, especially nude. The clothed version is very nice, too. Of course, being a guy, I prefer them nude.
I also like the fact tha the four women seem to have no modesty at all--
they never tried to cover up or hide anything; in fact, sometimes they seemed to be exposed a little more than necessary (no complaints here!).
I like this DVD very much and would recommend it to any man who wants to enjoy watching beautiful nude women, also to any man who wants to get his wife to exercise (especially nude and beautiful).

Odds are if you are a male with normal desires you won't be buying this movie with the intent aerobic training. I will freely admit that I was motivated by the thought of watching attractive girls dance around in the nude. Having said that I thought the women where okay, as in nothing you would throw out of bed, but not exactly ravishing beauties. No doubt because of the exercises they are performing; all but one of the women seemed to have normal size breasts (and even she didn't seem disproportionately large). The very absence of obviously fake breasts was a refreshing change to me; as I much prefer the look of natural ones. These days it seems like every girl out there has to have "augmented" breasts.

Some of the things I will fault the movie for is the very harsh lighting which shows off all the imperfections on the girl's skins. One girl in particular had a number of moles. But because the lighting was so harsh the moles stood out far more than they should have. Another gripe is the make up on their faces which seemed just a little too heavy for aerobics. Some makeup yes, but a little softer would perhaps have made a difference. The girl with above average breasts had a close up facial scene, and it looked more like she was practicing her on screen orgasms. Perhaps I am slow but I couldn't quite fathom the purpose for that close up.

I did not bother watching the clothed version of this DVD as it seemed to be contrary to what I was looking for.

If anyone is looking for a serious work out DVD I would suggest looking else where. There are I am quite sure many others better suited to the more serious minded. On the other hand doing some of these aerobics or better still convincing the woman in your life to do them could be kind of fun. Most certainly you would enjoy watching them.

It is both aesthetic and erotic. If you appreciate the beauty of female body from an intellectual perspective, this is the best choice: Pretty actresses, perfect figures, good photography (with some graphic designs), liberal philosophy (in that there is no forbidden areas in human body and every part is regarded as equally beautiful), and high taste (purely figures in athletic motion without any unnecessary words, background, and body decorations). I cannot say the movie is flawless (there can be improvement on the artistic side and I do not like some close-up views - they are not well designed and they last too long), but it is the best so far for the beauty of human body in motion and I wish to see more of this type of products.
