5 out of 5 stars My favorite!   June 7, 2007

This video is the perfect way for me to ease into my day. I get up, put on the coffee, then pop in "Stretchin' To The Classics". The music is soothing and the stretching takes away that morning stiffness. By the time the tape is over 15 minutes later, I feel calm and limber. And, my coffee is just finishing.

I also use it sometimes in the evening when I get the urge to snack. Popping in this tape gives me 15 minutes to let go of that urge and replace it with a different type of feel-good.

The fact that there is no talking, just music, in this tape makes it particularly soothing. The moves are learned quickly without cueing because they are slow.

I have successfully used Richard's tapes for years beginning with the original "Sweatin' to the Oldies" from 1988. After countless playings, my old tape still works beautifully -- amazing! I can always count on his tapes to take off those extra few pounds that creep on when I am not looking.

I highly recommend this tape especially if you like classical music!

I have trouble getting motivated to begin an exercise program. I have tried yoga - forget it - even though it says "for beginners" you have to already be in shape. Richard Simmons has always been for US - His videos are do-able and they make you feel good. Richard is an inspiration to all of us that have difficulty in the area of weight and fitness. We can do it!


5 out of 5 stars gentle range-of-motion exercises   May 4, 2006

As a former professional massage therapist, this is the tape I use every day whether I also workout or not. Much the same way I take a multi-vitamin every day to make sure my body's minimum daily needs are met, this is the minimum amount of movement everyone should get each day. It's not hard, doesn't take long, and will make you feel gently better. It's great by itself on a rest-day, or for an extended cool-down from aerobic or anaerobic exercise. (Also, since there is no talking (just music), you may turn the sound all the way off if you want to do it while someone is asleep in the next room.)

I also love it. I do it in the morning. That's when I'm grumpy and stiff. This one video has helped me snap out of my morning depression. Thank you, Richard!

I just love this video! It is so relaxing. I do this tape every night before I go to bed and it makes me feel so good!!! I would recommend this video to anyone who has general aches and pains associated with getting older.
