Richard Simmons - Sweatin' to the Oldies 2

Pros: active, good music, can exercise in the comfort of your own home

Cons: None

Review: Okay, I have to be honest. I absolutely hate exercising. Part of the problem is that I have *no* time during the day to fit it in. Goes with working full-time outside the home and parenthood. But, looking at the scale and noticing that my clothes just...

Pros: real people, good workout, works entire body

Cons: only bad if you hate oldies music (obviously)

Review: My parents bought Sweating to the Oldies 2 a long time ago, and it just sort of stayed in the video cabinet - used only a few times, if that at all. I've recently started watching what I eat and exercising. I was getting bored of always doing taebo, so...

Pros: thorough exercises, good motivation, good music

Cons: None

Review: I'm always a little embarrassed to admit that I'm a faithful devotee of Richard Simmons' "Sweatin' to the Oldies 2" video. I guess it's due to the stigma attached to Richie and his own, er, unique style .. not to mention the fact that most...

Pros: The music is very moving and enthusiastic. You cannot help but getting up and dancing.

Cons: The only con is that there should be more videos of this type out.

The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this workout to anyone that is inspired to learn some new dance steps and lose weight as well. Lose weight and party like a rock star.

Review: I must admit that I totally just love Richard Simmons. This workout inspired me to keep going and breaking a hard sweat, and an enjoyable one I must add. It is not just your typical workout it's more of a dance class and party combination all in one. I ...

Pros: Fun to do

Cons: It takes an hour out of your day

Review: Let me preface this by saying I hate to work out. I have never been an athletic person, and avoided any kind of sport whenever I could. The only "athletic" thing I was involved in in high school was cheerleading, which I loved, but when I was...

Pros: Total Body Toning

Cons: Availability- it may be hard to find?

The Bottom Line: This is a perfect tape for beginners. Sorry, but its not just pencil thin skinny chicks. This video shows REAL people exercising. If they can do it, so can you.

Review: Sweatin to the Oldies 2 is my favorite Richard Simmons exercise video. I first became aware of Richard and his Deal-A-Meal program in 1986 (UGH I'm getting old !!) My brother used Deal-A-Meal and Sweatin to the Oldies 2 to lose about 75 pounds. I was...

Pros: He slowly moves you in to exercise

Cons: I can't afford to buy all his stuff.

Review: I love Sweating to the Oldies II because it gives me hope. Richard always pick me up when I am at my lowest. He get you up on your feet and moving making you feel like you can do good at something. His video is very inspirational. He know how to get...

Pros: real people, fun exercises

Cons: need 1 or 2 lb. weights to go along with the video

Review: Fun, fun, fun! No one can compare to Richard Simmons and Sweatin' to the Oldies II is a great video. The songs are peppy and you'll never "hear" the songs the same way again when they come on the radio. Just when you think you're going to...

Pros: Good music

Cons: A little lengthy

Review: There is nothing but good I can say about Sweatin' to the Oldies 2. It has wonderful music and fun aerobics. It isn't complicated at all, and Richard is good about cueing on steps and moves. If there is anything negative about it, it is a little bit...

Pros: great music and its actually fun

Cons: none

Review: I have all of richards sweatin to the oldies tapes and this one is my favorite. I love the music and the moves are so much fun.
It gives you a good workout but it's not so difficult that you can't get thru the whole thing. This one even has...
