Fitness and Jane Fonda - a stroke of luck for the fitness industry. The fitness video "Jane Fonda's Workout," released on April 25, 1982, was the catalyst for a previously unimagined fitness euphoria. Around the world, housewives, teenagers and working moms began sweating it out with Jane on the carpet at home. For three years, this aerobics video topped the best-seller charts.
With her more than 20 fitness, primarily aerobics videos, the aerobics queen reached an audience of millions and helped an entire sport achieve its final breakthrough. With women, a new target group was won for the fitness studios and at the same time the foundation was laid for modern course systems. Female customers were particularly attracted by the new dance aspect, but also by the communal experience of the workout, which contrasted with the more individualistic approach to equipment training.
Healthy eating is a concern for the now 80-year-old, two-time Oscar winner (for "Klute" and "Coming Home"). "Of course I pay attention to healthy eating. This morning I had oatmeal and hot lemon. I don't eat wheat flour or coffee. Instead, I eat lots of fish and only light meat, no red meat."
