1988 Crystal Light National Aerobic Championship Opening

[@Peleus2000]

I would just like to point out that: 1. someone actually taped this when it was on. 2. they saved the tape for 23 years.

[@BiohazardBunney]

What happened to America's obsession for fitness anyway??

[@YSLH]

Wow. I'm now at least 70% happier than I was before I watched this.

[@MattisseWH]

I don't think I've ever been as excited for anything as these people are for this in my entire life.

[@TyphoidBryan]

This is the opening? How long is the whole program? 8 hours?

[@skiddz17]

Why am I so entertained?

[@sananima]

how do you win at aerobics

[@MikeyGaming]

WHY can I NOT stop watching this?!?!?!?!?

[@leifdjuric]

They just....keep.....going.....

[@dianacious86]

i wonder how they look right now

[@irishcajun85]

My life was not complete before I saw this.

[@demonkitti27]

After watching this, I feel motivated to go run 88 laps around the block.

[@psychii14]

They....don't....stop....moving o.o

[@kers3480]

God bless the 80's.

[@slackdave]

my face is just not big enough for smiles like that.

[@Superfubario]

I would have passed out 50 seconds in.

[@epinephrin]

I love the names of the gyms they represent... "The Firm" in particular. Every last one could easily double as the name of a gay bar.

[@Rhickey76]

Thats a whole lot of spandex

[@KyleMikula]

I went to that mittdawson guys page and the closing scene of this programs credits clearly reveal that there is no real title for the song played throughout. ALL MUSIC WAS CUSTOM MADE AEROBIC RECORDS INC. Trust me I'm just as pissed as you guys to find this out. I just played this video over and over again trying to listen to the lyrics to find this out. You're all very welcome.

[@roboshea]

THIS IS MY DREAM

[@qIdlbIp]

What crossfit will look like in 30 years

[@SLEEPTHIEFofficial]

I am totally obsessed...what is wrong with me? I NEED the opening song...NOW...

[@themerryband7631]

So.Many.Eddy Murphy's.

[@TheGreenerBean]

I don't know why I can't stop watching.

[@117425yt]

those 80s hair cuts, oh dear.

[@ChristaLovesDrama]

I think this is the medicine the whole world has been looking for!

[@Mvxp]

omg, their facial expressions are priceless!!!

[@kostaledmund]

I want to be an honorary chairperson of the national fitness foundation... in 1988.

[@395276]

Fuck. I hate it when I'm ready to watch a prime movie and they show a fucking special program about aerobics instead.

[@sagebates]

This show needs to come back!

[@1negenius]

#MyRingTone

[@Pluh88]

Sad thing is, in twenty years our grand children is going laughed at us like we are laughing at them.

[@rossdidit2]

[@TurtleeyTY]

[@babuschka]

This is so incredibly awesome. Who won? Did the guys all exchange numbers? Where can i get the singlet? Do they all have arthritis? Where are these people now?

[@YvetteO.]

LMBO! I'm interested to see how the rest of the "competition" went. PLEASE post it! The eighties were something special!

[@XJaggedgeX]

[@steveoflyz]

[@Pengin002]

I've never read a more accurate description.

[@ricadaripper]

I watched the whole thing, and want more! Lol !

[@gwmkwan]

this is better than P90x workout

[@SamIAm8700]

Look at the guy at 4:51! He was definitely ahead of his time in the aerobic world! I think I learned that move in Zumba last week! LOL!

[@VerySeriousUser]

Most awesome opening EVER!

[@12katiekate]

Hahaha alan thicke as host. Nice. And I can't believe I just watched this whole thing.

[@Wolfsky9]

Only if you were part of those amazing high-kicking years, can you really appreciate this! I was there--I know--even though it's now a distant memory, what a memory it is!! And Joan Wenson is & will always be, the very best, ever. She was the gold standard, for sure. Wolfsky9

[@fitnessmaniac5]

LOVE IT! thanks for posting

[@TheDoldrumsSir1]

I'm going to dress like Alan Thicke from now on. Look at that fuckin' sports coat!

[@gaijinhunter84]

If you go on the 1987 aerobic champs video I sure they tell you what the name of the song is as I think the girl performs it. The best bit about this is the team intros

[@dawidjan1993]

This is so crazy? Lots of happy people dancing and jumping to cool music! ;)

[@ainefewer]

does anyone else notice the woman at the back left of the triangle completely lose the choreography at about 0.34 lol

[@capoeirascience]

[@anubato]

Robin Scherbatsky at 1:17 and 2:59

[@Imtoold]

Natalie portman lookalike in the audience at 6:48

[@w0shic0w]

Imagine how old these people will look now and whether their bodies will still be that tight....

[@carnage4th]

4.30 knows she is the coolest

[@Bonsithebrilliant]

Oh, 80s...

[@Collin_Cornwell]

I NEED THE SONG!!

[@killerwill77]

I cant find this song anywhere! We need and 80's guru

[@SamIAm8700]

I could not stop laughing through the entire thing! This reminds me of my moms work-out videos when i was little!

[@Pinskip2]

The look on the guy's face at 2:29 is the best thing I've ever seen.

[@93luv2sing]

Oh 80's you so silly.

[@AndrewMcDreamy]

THE SONG IS AWESOME!!! What's the name of it, anyone?

[@DimensionBodyworks]

[@syntaxerorr]

My god...the late eighties / early nineties.

[@tastysandwhich]

The 80s were so weird

[@kers3480]

Sorry to break it to you, but they have tights under them.

[@Sikthkid]

[@CreepingSorrow]

Oh God! I had to take a break after every minute of this video

[@jamesetimmer]

Crystal Light was around in 1988?

[@MrEpile]

[@Knowles30]

[@KenziGrace3]

Oh thank the heavens that the years of spandex and lady mullets are over..

[@Fatfrogsrock]

Look at them go!

[@Triksta89]

someone please tell me the name to this amazing song

[@yalbetterpissoff]

anyone know the name of the champion song?

[@chortovs]

@killerwill77 so no song answer yet?

[@darc222]

AMAZING!!!!

[@shouldnotseeme]

That's because of endorphines kicking in and also, you must have lived a shitty life. But you can change it.

[@waddlebird]

what is the song called?

[@MrJimbronson]

You know that your in for a good time when Alan Thicke is involved! Does the background music say "Get me off?" Bring this competition back and everyone perform naked! I'd watch.

[@Khronnus]

So much spandex.

[@idanceaway7]

1:17= ROBIN SPARKLES
