The tape was made in the mid 1980's and has this Chuck Norris look-alike leading you through the exercises. There is a room full of people in leg warmers, headbands, and spandex. It kicks my arse everytime. Simple exercises that don't make you feel like you have to be a supermodel. I can’t believe I’m admitting this but….

A topic that deserves honorable mention - the importance of a little resistance training in weight loss. My best/easiest/most healthy weight losses? The ones where I was weight training. Sometimes that alone was enough to just keep the weight at bay. And you don't need a gym for that either - if you want to spend a little money you can buy a cheap set of dumbells, or there are thousands of exercises out there that use your own body weight or a wall as resistance. And you don't need to be Arnold or even do heavy weights, just a little bit adds a lot!
