1980's work out video reference

I'm trying to find good images of the workout video fashions of the 1980's. The best I could find so far are Jane fonda work out videos, and the music video for eric prydz, call on me (it's new but is a parody of the 1980's workout video)

I've tried unsuccessfully to find what I want on google, so I was wondering if anyone here has some hidden stache or knows of a good movie/music video/etc to google for.

*edit: nevermind, http://www.jane-fonda.net/ gave me what I wanted. But if anyone DOES have good ones, post here as well. 8-)

As a teaser, this is for my steampunk challenge entry.

A couple other places I'd try...

Is this going to be anything like your geat overweight-jogger model?
I'd buy _that_ for a dollar!

You need to get "Let's Get Physical" by Olivia Newton John.

Oh, yeah and what was that one John Travolta did after Sat. Night Fever? The one where Jamie Lee Curtis was the aerobics instructor?

This should inspire you, this is a pretty good song too if you're into electronica.

Yeah thanks Malcolm, but had you READ my original post, I've seen this. Good video though. 8-)

Sorry man, right after I submitted that post I noticed you already mentioned it.

for some damn reason, i remember there being a few shots of a character working out in 80's gear, in front of a tv playing an 80's work out video in the old movie "return of the living dead II" .. hmm.. was it 2 or 3. i only saw one of them, so don't laugh at me. i think it was 2.

why i remember this, i have no idea.

Look for "jazzercise", an old Cinemax show. Damn, that was funny. Mid-80's, woman in spandex, stretching. What's funny is the trademark camera moves and bad music. One angle in particular points straight down on the women, as they stand in a circle, bouncing their rears around. Quite amusing indeed.
