8 best aerobic dvds

Product description

The first dance aerobics DVD released by Tracy Anderson in over 6 years featuring brand new dance combinations. These dances are unlike anything you will find in Metamorphosis, will further strengthen your mind/body connection, and is the highest calorie burning workout ever released by Tracy Anderson. In addition to a full tutorial with breakdown lessons of each dance, there are options to do all of the dances in one sequence, following along from the front or following along from the back. It's time to unleash your inner pop star. This DVD represents the full expression of the Tracy Anderson Method Dance Cardio program: It's challenging, but wildly effective and fun. Throughout the 50 minutes of new dances, you will torch calories as your mind reconnects with your body, and you will shed weight as you learn how to dance. Perhaps most importantly, Tracy designed this program in a way that will never interfere with your muscular structure work - quite simply, you will not be firing the same major muscles, again and again. Not a dancer? No problem: Tracy will take you through the choreography bit by bit, so you can move with confidence. There is a breakdown section of each dance as well as the option to follow the dances from the front or the back.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are there captions or subtitles for deaf people to understand
Answer:	There is no indication on the case that the DVD contains captions and subtitles. When I selected subtitles on my DVD player, none appeared; however, I have an older DVD player. There is not an option for settings on the DVD. You can only choose one of the routines to play.
Question:	Where can I find a step board just in like the one in this video, same height and length
Answer:	You can do a search on Amazon for "exercise step."
Question:	Will any step platform work in terms of length and adjustability? I see a few on the market that can incline and are different in length
Answer:	She only uses the lowest level. I got a step that is about 27 inches long. It works but I wish it was longer.
Question:	Is there a digital version? we don't have a dvd player

70 lbs

My name is Rebecca H. I am 41 years old. When I started doing Jenny's workouts I was amazed to I felt toned, energized and motivated to keep going! I found her workouts easy to follow and uplifting. Thanks to Jenny and her amazing workouts I have been able to lose over 70 lbs in a year. I workout with Jenny 5 to 6 days a week. I feel like I'm working out with a friend. I can't thank Jenny enough for changing my health and changing my life!

66 lbs

I just wanted to say thank you so much for your amazing step work outs. You helped me lose a total of 66 lbs! In 2012 I was over 200 lbs, 3 years and two babies later I'm down 66 lbs! Thank you, Tina Jo

93 lbs

Success story sent in from Andrew's wife, Sara: So proud of my honey and all his success. 3 years ago we both started losing weight slowly. He has lost a total of 93.2 pounds, 70 of which he completed in only 1 year by being a strict calorie counter with MyFitnessPal (an app) and by religiously working out to Jenny Ford's workouts. His dedication is astounding! -La Crescenta, California

51 lbs

I started my journey in November 2017 after a health scare, at 245 lbs and I am now 154 lbs. I no longer take any blood pressure or diabetic medications. I always loved step aerobics, when I searched, you were the 1st one that popped up. I began walking 15 min. a day and increased it to 30 min. I then incorporated your step videos. The more I did the the stronger I got. Now I workout 5 days a week and do your step aerobics 3 times a week. You’re videos and kind words keep me motivated. There are times when I just wanted to give up but then all of a sudden on cue I'd hear you say “you are strong” or “you have to take care of you”, and it makes me push even harder.

Four generations

Four generations working out together: Jessamy (34) is a busy mom of five, with her mom Teresa (56), grandmother Janice (75), and daughter. Jessamy said: "I love your workouts. I got a step for my birthday on February 1st and have been stepping with you 5 days a week since then. I have lost 6 pounds with a 40 pound goal! The 30 minute workouts are perfect for me. I am a mom of 5 and cannot afford the time it takes to drive to a gym to workout everyday but with your workouts, I have been successful! It’s been a lifesaver. My 55 year old mom has started to work out with you too and my grandma who is 78. She doesn’t use a step but is really enjoying following on the ground with you!"

73 lbs

My name is Lisa, I'm 37, a wife and mum of 2 from the UK. Starting weight 253.5 lbs. I suffer from depression and one day thought how could I get my lazy butt off the sofa and do some exercise. I scanned through YouTube and found Jenny Ford, I sweat buckets. It gave me so much energy, that I did it again AND the dancing ones too. I ended up buying a step, so I could participate in all the step workouts. In September, I started Slimming World. I have lost 73 lbs in 8 months.

97 lbs

. 9 months ago I started doing step to your videos. Today I weigh a whole 97 lbs lighter and I am nearly at my target and it's thanks to you with your step videos that has helped me achieve this amazing weight loss. -Many thanks Nigel

120 lbs

It's been a 3 year journey starting at 70. I broke my arm. 3 months later a back compression fracture. Ready for assisted living? I decided NO. After losing the first 50, I knew I needed more inspiration...and there you were! I can't do 30 minutes at one time. However, I can do 15 minutes twice a day! 120 pound total loss. You are real. You are sincere. Somehow you touched me through the workouts. I can do things I could not do a couple of years ago. I did go to PT. They started me on my road to recovery, but you carried me to the finish line...and I'm not stopping there! Everyone has that "button" inside of them that, when you push it, you can do amazing things you never thought you could! Rosalie Z.

The first section is more straight forward and linear using base moves that focus on intensity instead of complexity. The second section introduces a fun and easy to learn combinations.

User questions & answers

Question:	What are the three workouts on this dvd
Answer:	Yes, I just popped the cap off and used pliers (from my leatherman multi-tool) to loosen the rope pull it forward less than an inch and snip it with the wire-cutters. Now my 9' rope is probably around 8'6" and it's not slappin the ground well before it gets to my feet so smoother jump-roping.
Question:	How much impact is involved in these routines? I can work with complexity and intensity, but prefer low impact as my knees get older
Answer:	I cut the extra off of mine

Benefits of Step Workouts: What Can You Expect?

Step workouts give you a cardiovascular routine that’s easy on the joints. Plus, the movements are constantly changing and the music is motivating so there’s little risk of becoming bored. Step workouts can also be high-impact with more jumping movements where both feet leave the ground. In one study, this type of high-impact step workout resulted in significant improvements in bone density: hip bone density increased by 3.3%, lumbar spine density by 1.2% and leg bone density by 0.9%.

Equipment Needed

• Step with 3 Risers per Side
