Richard Simmons' charming personality and know-how make Sweatin' to the Oldies a classic of the 80s rage for exercise videos. The music is great, and will appeal to people of every age, and I've enjoyed just listinging to it for inspiration while working around the house.
As an added plus, Sweatin' to the Oldies rates mega-stars as a fabulous family activity that not only entertains, but gets us off the couch for some very real health benefits. Don't be fooled by the simplicity of the routines. There's some serious exercise here.
The Complete Collection of Sweatin' to the Oldies is a tremendous value!

Paraphrasing American Pie*
o/~ A long, long time ago, I can still remember when this music and exercise used to make me smile o/~ and work out with Richard and his diverse crowd of fellow exercisers on VHS.
Now the folks at Time/Life have released the full set of the first 4 on DVD.
But wait!
There's more!!
A motivational and "Get back on the wagon!" never-before-released bonus DVD!!!
I looked through the blurbs and reviews, but didn't find a handy-dandy list of the included tunes to which to sweat, so here it is:
Original
1.) intro
2.) Dancing in the Street
3.) Beyond the Sea
4.) On Broadway
5.) It's My Party
6.) Peggy Sue
7.) Great Balls of Fire
8.) Wipe Out
9.) He's a Rebal
10.)Personality
11.)Ain't No Mountain High Enough
S2tO - 2
1.) intro
2.) The Locomotion
3.) Fever
4.) My Boyfriend's Back
5.) Breaking Up is Hard to Do
6.) Windy
7.) Big Girls Don't Cry
8.) Jailhouse Rock
9.) Summer in the City
10.)Respect
11.)Rescue Me
12.)Oh, Pretty Woman
S2tO - 3
1.) intro
2.) Gimme Some Lovin'
3.) Louie Louie
4.) Out of Limits
5.) Do Yo Want to Dance
6.) the Name Game
7.) I Get Around
8.) Born to Be Wild
9.) Rockin' Robin
10.)Build Me Up, Buttercup
11.) California Dreamin'
S2tO - 4
1.) intro
2.) Shout
3.) Shotgun
4.) Dance to the Music
5.) Up the Ladder to the Roof
6.) Heat Wave
7.) Mony Mony
8.) Proud Mary
9.) Devil with the Blue Dress On
10.)the Wanderer
11.)Someday We'll Be Together
For Extra Credit, you can freestyle/improvise the moves to any tunes on your Ipod when you're away from your TV. My favorite: the Captain & Tenille's *Love Will Keep Us Together.* My only rules are: I gotta keep movin' through the whole song; and every time she sings "STOP!" I gotta kick the alternate leg up over my head (this maneuver not recommended for those not limber enough to find their own toes. ;-)
* You can work out to *American Pie* but you may not EAT any pie on this plan.

Everyone laughed at me when I told them I was purchasing these DVDs... Now everyone is doing the exercises with me, including my husband who is a bit of a "REDNECK" and made the most fun of the thought of me getting them and of course Richard Simmons...
But, no one is laughing now... My hole family has been doing these exercises for almost a month and we love them. You really do alot of sweating... For the price and the convenience that you have to be able to do them at home on your own time this is a good deal. I have seen other offers but you only get 2 or 3 DVDs for the same price.

They should have added a little something new to the "Oldies"...
They should have added a little something new to the "Oldies" selection. Found to be a bit disappointing to us.
