I really enjoyed this workout. I'm 60 years old and I have been doing The Firm Aerobic Workouts With Weights (mostly Volumes I, II and II, which are my favorites) for 24 years, five times a week. But my knees started giving me problems so I am now only able to do the floorwork portions of The Firm workouts (which are excellent). Jane's workout fills the gap to provide the aerobics I need. It's fun, easy to follow, and makes you sweat -- not to mention that Jane is so enjoyable to "be with" and so beautiful and inspiring to watch. I recommend this workout for anyone, really, but especially for those who can no longer do squats, lunges and iron aerobics. It is fun and effective. I liked it so much, that I just ordered her three other Prime Time workouts: Trim, Tone and Flex; Firm and Burn; and Walkout. Thanks, Jane.

I'm in my 60's with hip problems. Not really the exercise video for me. I can't get past the warm up :(

Mixed Assessment on This One

This is the second CD by Jane Fonda I purchased. I'm using it to limited degree for some change to the first, but the first (Walk it Out) is far better overall for my interests. A plus with this CD is the setting is an exercise studio as contrasted with a made-up living room in the other CD. In this one, I also liked her selection of a small number of diverse people (ages, genders, body types) to participate in the routines as would be found in a class and that she introduced them. Finally this CD has little unnecessary patter. There are three exercise sets here. The first is described as Doo Wop. I thought it was energizing and excellent for the exercise set. The second is Latin music which is just not to my taste and the third is something she termed as "Old School Funk". I found the latter set so mild and the music just "OK" that I went through it only twice before I rated it as boring. Just wish she could take the best of Walk it Out and this CD.

Great video for those needing a lighter workout

The video is an older Jane who is no longer "going for the burn". It is a gentle, thorough, and effective workout.
