Jane Fonda: Prime Time – Walkout

I do Jane Fonda workouts 4 times a week using several of her workout DVDs over the last 2 years. I'm 41 and I feel great - I've seen an improvement in my endurance and flexibility, as well as my overall wellbeing. I added this Prime Time Walkout DVD once a week, while using her more high intensity DVDs on the other 3 days. The Walkout workout is definitely different from her other workouts in that it's lower intensity, less jumpy movements, and a slower pace; this one just has Jane, no other people in a workout studio like her others. Jane looks fantastic, she made this when she was in her early 70s. I love that she jokes and gives you fitness tips throughout. The stretches feel so good as well and help you maintain flexibility. You start slow, go more intense, cool down and stretch. The total workout equals walking a mile, but the aerobics is more fun to me. I like that you can choose 2 levels with this, a lower intensity and a higher intensity. Even doing the higher intensity, I don't break a real sweat, but my heart gets pumping a little higher, not as much as with her other workouts. I love that I can get this workout in in 20 minutes in the morning. To make it more intense for me, I chose to use wrist weights and that really makes a difference by adding to the intensity and raising my heart rate. If you find it's not enough of a challenge for you, I'd recommend adding the wrist weights (1-2 pounds). For the price, it's a bargain to maintain my fitness on my terms. I also recommend Jane Fonda Total Workout and Jane Fonda's New Workout, those two are my most used ones.

I'm 37 y/old and for the most part I would avoid anything as old school as Jane Fonda. In the past I've done Shiva Rhea, Kundalini Yoga, Tennis, etc. But a few auto accidents into my life my body is now telling me my limitations. I have a neck injury and now some scoliosis in the neck and upper thoracic and lower area. I am currently dealing with the neck as even real walking, too fast, causes headaches and neck grinding. So basically I have the body of a 80 y/old:-) Well, I've seen 80 y/olds get around better than me, so a body of a near deceased person:-) So thank goodness for YouTube because I had a chance to look at many different fitness videos and I had eyed this video and another Jane Fonda workout. I decided this would be the best for me because: 1) You don't need a lot of room in your home to do this workout. 2) Its a gentle workout but you can break a sweat PROS: 1) Its a gentle workout- I didn't get much radiating pain from this workout and she doesn't ask you to do crazy stunts (like stand ontop of your head) 2) I LOVE the fact she has you warm up before walking 3) I LOVE the fact she has you stretch as a cool down 4) I think her cuing isn't bad and the steps she has you do aren't complicated in learning 5) There are two sessions, each only 20 minutes of exercise so you can easily do this before going to work. 6) I enjoy the setting of this video 7) Every part of the exercise program does what she says its suppose to do/feel CONS: 1) Not many cons. I just wished she had included a 2 mile walking program too. 2) There are some overhead exercises with the arm (and for me, this causes some discomfort). She does talk a lot, but its nice mindless chatter for me because its during the walking and its important stuff... sometimes she repeats it over and over again... but I don't mind because I found her DVD to be less annoying than many other aerobic or walking DVDs out there. I am really happy Jane did this DVD... after my recent accident, other than pilates, this DVD is the only other thing I can do without feeling much pain afterwards. So this DVD is my personal blessing.

I bought the WALK and the FIT & STRONG workouts. Other reviews were correct about the less than excellent quality and the problem with matching the music with the workout pace. It keeps happening during the exercise and it seems to be Jane's problem. I think she loses her "rhythm" so I just don't look at her. I listen to the music, do what she says and keep on going. What I like about each program is that it is exactly the challenge I need and both DVDs come with two exercise levels. Right now the lower ones are perfect for me. I am seventy and much too sedentary. I find it more helpful to do the right program for my age than to try to do my earlier "janes" at a slower pace. I am not sorry I bought these because they give me the kind of workout I need for my present life and condition. Give it a try.

This video contains two workouts, both of which are excellent. I do the first one when I have let myself get out of shape. It doesn't knock you out, but it definitely gets you going. The second one, according to Jane, is "a little more challenging." Lazy me finds it considerably more challenging but certainly nothing that will injure you in any way. Jane is such a hoot that you keep on going. 71 years old (me) and love this video. Perks me up.

Jane Fonda is in her seventies, and she recognized there are many seniors and others who are couch sitters. We need to get up and move, and what better exercise than walking. Jane Fonda started the exercise video craze years ago. Hers were the first on the market before VHS and DVD's had a name. Now, she has released this relatively new one for those in her age bracket and younger. Anyone who wants to exercise should be able to do a little. If you can walk a few steps, you can start with this video. It is not just moving your legs, but also moving your arms and more if your body as you become stronger. Getting up off of the couch is the first step. Put your arms on the sides of the couch and push up. Here we go, Jane gives us a little info about the impact of exercising on our physical and mental health. She starts us off slowly, and builds the exercise levels up slowly. This is a video for everyone who wants to start to move. It may not be easy at first, but it is a start, and if you keep up with the walking, you will soon be moving along. This is a start and it will improve your psyche if you keep up wit it. Recommended. prisrob 07-16-15

When Jane was promoting her workout videos decades ago, I was one of her fans and finally upgraded to the advanced workout. I lost weight and inches doing the workout every day. Bless her heart, now in her 70's, she has produced another workout for us older gals. Just as her earlier workouts, the Walk Out is a challenge to follow until you get familiar with the routine,but once you have it down pat you will be able to keep up to speed with her and be just as happy as she is to reach the cool down segment. I have bad knees and her workout doesn't give me any problems until the very end in the cool down segment when there is leg bending to stretch the muscles. I do not do those. I viewed the second workout and the walking workout is more intense but is only 18 minutes. It will be a while before I join her in the 2nd workout. Her workouts are informative yet offer a bit of humor. There is an EXTRA segment that instructs anyone with a bladder problem daily exercises that will strengthen the muscles involved and resolve the problem better than medicine. I am glad I ordered this workout-it is like old times to have Jane Fonda as my instructor.

When I read the reviews I was hesitant about getting the Jane Fonda WALKOUT DVD because some said she was a little out of beat, and others said it was a workout for beginners, or elderly. I ordered her two Prime Time DVDs anyway. I'm very pleased I did. I am impressed because although it is low impact, the more advanced workout in her program is plentiful, especially if you pay attention to her movements, and stay strong. I've been faithful at staying fit through the years, but in my 60's, my life became hectic for a period of time, and I slacked off a bit, and felt like I needed a new program. After a month of using Walkout, followed about Jane's Prime Time Fitness, I've lost weight and inches, and I can see definition coming back, and I feel great, even sleep better. For me, it's a far better work out than Curve's roundabout. I like Jane's positive attitude, and her encouragement. She stresses good posture, which after a few weeks became natural. I'm feeling confident and ready for all that comes my way. This is a great workout for Baby Boomers who want to be fit and fabulous, like Jane Fonda.

I love this DVD. Now that Jane Fonda is in her 70s, she finally did a workout I can keep up with! Seriously, I use this DVD workout every single day. To get an excellent 20-minute workout, you don't have to go to the gym, do your hair, leave the house, or worry about how you look or what people will think. Play the DVD, and 20 minutes later you are done. If you're really ambitious, do the second, more intense 18-minute workout. I am crazy busy, and even I can manage to fit 20 minutes of exercise into my day. Even I can manage 20 minutes of the self-discipline needed to do this workout. If you're more fit, you can add steps and motion and intensity to the workout. If it's a day you can barely get out of bed, then you can ratchet down the intensity. Yes, it can get monotonous, like any exercise routine, but I can stand monotony for 20 minutes. Since buying the DVD several months ago, it has made a significant contribution to my overall fitness. I have been doing Jane Fonda's workouts since the 80's, but this one is the winner.

Great for balance and coordination. Difficult at first but stick to it then great. Jane Fonda: Prime Time - Walkout

It is a great workout

母のために買いました。コロナで外に出るなといったものの、運動不足の状態があり、家の中でできる運動を考えましたが、楽しくできる、高齢者でもできるものをといろいろ探しましたが、なかなかなくて、こちらに出会いました。残念ながら日本語訳バージョンがなく、リージョンも外国対応で、普通のDVDではみれないので、パソコンをテレビにつないでみていますが、なかな良いです。楽しく運動できました。

I couldn't see how I could walk a mile watching a DVD. However, it is low impact aerobics for about 18 minutes. It is really good. Jane Fonda, as usual, is an excellent teacher. The only criticism of this DVD is that Jane Fonda looks so good. Couldn't she have a bit of fat SOMEWHERE?

※注：このDVDは、リージョン1（アメリカ合衆国およびカナダ向け）製品です。 リージョンフリーのプレイヤーをお持ちでない方や、リージョン1DVDを再生した経験のない方には、リージョン2（日本・ヨーロッパ等向け）の以下の製品をおすすめします。 ジェーン・フォンダの若返りエクササイズ~エアロビック・ウォーキング~ [DVD ] 80年代にワークアウトビデオで一斉を風靡したジェーン・フォンダが、2010年に出したDVDです。 収録内容は ・ウォークアウト1 26分間 （マーチング／足踏み、左右のステップに腕の動きやひねりを組み合わせた体操、最後にクールダウンのストレッチ） ・ウォークアウト2 26分間（ウォークアウト1より若干運動量はあるもののほとんど同じ内容） ・ケーゲル体操 約4分間 （骨盤底筋の体操、尿漏れ等を防ぐ） シニアが気軽に運動できるように、という意図でしょうか、時間はやや短め、軽めの運動となっています。 最初やってみたら、きっと（これなら楽にできるわ～～）と思われることでしょう。 そのぐらい、一見何でもないような動作を組み合わせたエクササイズです。 でも、運動した翌日、結構足や腕に心地良い筋肉痛を感じますので、バランスよく体を動かすことができているという感じです。 「ケーゲル体操」は、骨盤底筋という、尿漏れなどを防ぐインナーマッスルの体操です。ジェーンはタイミングや間隔を説明してくれ、肝心の「運動中」は、ジェーンの顔のアップが写っている… というちょっと面白い（？）内容です。 ケーゲル体操も含めて、短い時間で楽しく運動できる内容ですので、年齢を問わず、女性だけでなく男性にもお勧めします。 特に、忙しくてなかなかジム等に通っている暇がない…という方にぴったりです。思い立った時にすぐできますよ！ エクササイズの合間のジェーンのおしゃべりも楽しいです。
