 Richard is the Best. This isn't his best. April 18, 2001

I use this and Sweatin' to the Oldies III. I love the music and dancing, however it is hard to follow this video because the camera isn't always on Richard at the beginning of a dance or when he changes steps. Head shots don't help with foot work. STTO III is more professional in this regard. At first I thought that this didn't provide as good a workout as STTO III, but my heart rate and sweat prove otherwise. I believe it is because these dances use your arms more. Richard is great for those of us who don't have perfect bodies and probably never will. Even though I am toned and losing weight, I will never look like Denise Austin or Kathy Ireland. I've just ordered the original STTO and will let you know what I think.

I am not into exercise one bit. I hate it. But a health scare and being tired of shopping at the plus size store (and their lack of nice, reasonably priced clothes) made me get off my [rear] last month and start to exercise every day. I bought this tape and started to do it every other day, cut out soda, and ate better. I also do weights on my off days for about half an hour. In a month, I cannot say how much I lost. But I can tell my clothes fit better. The music in this tape is inspiring. Richard tells you to keep going just when you want to stop. The best part of the tape (aside from the routines) is the motivational ending (when you see how much weight everyone has lost). It is a good first step into exercising.

I alternate this with the "Dance your pants off" video. This one is about an hour long, and it includes upper body resistance workout and floor abdominal workout. The aerobic portion is just hard enough; I am a beginner and this makes me SWEAT (the only way to burn fat!) but I can do it. In comparison, Dance Your Pants Off is about 45 minutes long and mostly aerobic with emphasis on lower body activity. As far as instructional quality, Richard has a way of encouraging you to keep at it. But he doesn't give much direction on the steps & changes, so it takes several times to get the moves down. I always feel better after doing these videos.
 Did not enjoy this workout.... January 28, 2008

I do acknowledge that a lot of people enjoy this series of tapes/dvds and have lost weight using them, but I did not enjoy this workout. I have some of his other tapes (not in the Sweatin to the Oldies series) that I like much better!
Just o.k. February 17, 2009

It would have been better if the moves were shown at a slower pace & then speed up so you have a chance to learn the steps.
