Whatever Happened To Fitness Guru Denise Austin?


Aiden Mason | December 16, 2019


If you are into workout and fitness, then the name Denise Austin rings a bell. The self-proclaimed fitness guru has been showcasing impressive feats when working out that she made it to the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. As a fitness enthusiast, she has been active since 1980 and continues to display her prowess on the workout podium. There was a time when she used to grace our screens courtesy of her workout DVDs, the last, Yoga Booty Lift, released in 2014. The bugging question is where she disappeared as she has been on the down-low in the past few years.

Denise Austin’s Background

Denise was born on February 13th, 1957, which makes her 62 presently. Despite the old age, she wows her followers with her youthful looks, which she attributes to her strict exercising regime. She has always been a fan of fitness, with her beginnings going back to when she was 12 and starting in gymnastics. Her gymnastic forays led to an athletic scholarship, sponsoring her to the University of Arizona. She later transferred to California State University, where she graduated with a major in physical education. Her family is sports inclined with her husband Jeff Austin, being a standout tennis player. Her last born daughter, Katie Austin, followed her path in gymnastics and fitness and has her own YouTube channel where she shares her workout protocols.

Her Ventures

To answer the question of where she has been in the past few years, we look at the ventures she takes part in. She is quite a busy person, and that can be one of the key reasons as to why she is on the down-low. Below are some of the known ventures that Denise Austin tries her hands at.

1. Work Out Consultancy And Advice

As she is so proficient and knowledgeable in fitness to get the right physique, she is a perfect person to consult on such matters. She offers advice on several blogs and columns. Among the advice pieces she offers are evident on AOL. She talks on various topics, such as proper fitness regimens, depending on age, among other factors. She also touches on healthy living tips focusing on diet and exercising routines.

2. Crafting Work Out Programs
Banking on her experience in the fitness industry, she helps in coming up with fitness programs, aimed at achieving a healthy physique. Such programs are helpful to many who want to achieve a healthy-looking body. An example is the 10-week program evident on Hollywood life. In this instance, Denise helps you get into your work out mode by introducing you to the gradual week by week schedule. The routine is flexible and gives you a decent time-span to get you into the right shape.

3. Authoring Duties

Aside from training and offering healthy living advice, Mrs. Austin also takes her time to write books. Yes, you guessed it right; the main topic is about physical aptness. Among the books include Side Effect Skinny, Denise’s Daily Dozen, and Get Energy. You can view the books on her website. You can also get them on Amazon. Using her written work, she delves deeper into exercising to get you fit. She also touches on other aspects such as grooming for an all-round decent look.

4. YouTube Workouts

As earlier indicated, Denise used to showcase her exercising moves, which she shared by DVDs. However, there have been no DVD releases on her working out ever since 2014. It seems she found a new and reliable outlet to show her moves, enter YouTube. She has a YouTube channel where she uploads her various exercising moves. The channel boasts over 30000 subscribers and viewership numbers of over 300k. Using this platform is convenient as she reaches a colossal viewer-base to get much-needed exposure. The move to the video social site is working for her, and her consistency is paying off.

5. Sale Of Fitness Material

From her official website, there is a shop section. Under the section, there are items on sale such as the Stop the Clock Fitness plan and Stop the Clock Nutrition plan. The fitness plan focuses on ladies over 40 who want to get fit by losing some weight. It also offers an in-depth insight into lifestyle, health, and other useful tips for excellent health as you age. The nutrition plan focuses on dietary habits and plans to bank on for an energized body and mind. The plan borrows heavily from Denise’s nutritional habits. She keeps it all-natural and never misses a meal. Another fitness material is the 10-week plan, which comes in DVD format. As earlier hinted, it guides you on a flexible workout schedule.

Final Thoughts

Denise Austin is a respectable figure in the world of fitness and physical aptness. Her youthful looks are evidence of proper care that she employs to remain fit. Of late, she has been low key, bringing lots of speculations on her whereabouts. She seems to be doing fine, looking at all the venture she takes part in. You can keep up with her training session courtesy of her social media pages, such as YouTube and Instagram. Also, check out her site for various workout tidbits or to purchase some of her products. Take a page from her book to employ flexibility and natural nutrients in maintaining a fit physique.

Denise And Katie Featured In The Boston Herald


Denise and Katie Austin take on Boston for workout and pleasure

By Olivia Vanni | olivia.vanni@bostonherald.com | Boston Herald
September 7, 2019 at 7:32 pm

It seems that for famed fitness fanatics Denise and Katie Austin, a recent stop here in town really “hit the spot.” The mother-daughter duo may have been called to Boston to host a throwback exercise class together in our downtown, but they clearly worked off some extra calories exploring our city over the last few days.

The weather was on their side coming into the weekend, when they were seen shooting workout promos at the Boston Harbor Hotel. The pair were bouncing about for the cameras outside, underneath the waterfront establishment’s iconic rotunda.

Katie appears to have broken away from her mama for a little bit as she checked out a couple of locally based businesses focused on wellness. The lifestyle personality apparently hit up Booty by Brabants for a little “light shopping,” according to the caption on an Instagram story that showed her carrying armfuls of the brand’s athletic wear. It also looks like she ventured out to the suburbs to film some videos at Puma’s North American headquarters in Westford.

Fortunately, their visit wasn’t all workout and no play. We see that the younger Austin also hit the town with friends, grabbing dinner at Tuscan Kitchen in Seaport and keeping those evening vibes going at Bodega Canal.

The pair reunited for the whole purpose of their stay here in the Hub: to lead a joint ’90s-themed pop-up class, as part of the Boston Harbor Hotel’s Summer in the City series. The Austins and their guests packed into a room, where they broke a sweat doing retro aerobics and total body toning for 50 minutes. After the event, which was also presented by hoo.be, they all partied and sipped on well-deserved cocktails from KEEL Vodka in the hotel’s Rowes Wharf Bar.

Denise Featured In The Boston Globe


The VIP Lounge with fitness guru Denise Austin

By Juliet Pennington Globe correspondent, August 27, 2019, 5:04 p.m.

From left: Katie, Denise, Kelly, and Jeff Austin on safari last year in South Africa’s Kruger National Park.

Fitness guru Denise Austin loves going on safaris in Africa, but is hoping to get to the Italian Riviera in the not-too-distant future. Austin, 62, is a pioneer in the fitness industry. She has sold more than 24 million exercise videos and DVDs, authored 12 books on fitness, and starred in long-running television fitness show. Austin and her daughter Katie, 25, a fitness enthusiast, author, blogger, and model, are hosting a waterfront retro aerobics pop-up at the Boston Harbor Hotel at 11 a.m. on Sept. 7. Following the 50-minute workout — during which Denise will focus primarily on low-impact aerobics and her daughter will offer a more “high energy” version — participants are invited to an after party (also at the hotel, and hosted by KEEL Vodka) where drinks and healthy snack food will be served. Tickets to the after party cost $30 and may be purchased on Eventbrite. “I am so excited to be headed to Boston to partner with KEEL Vodka, the Boston Harbor Hotel, and hoo.be [a Boston-based tech startup] to put on this workout event with my daughter Katie,” said the mother of two, whose other daughter, Kelly, is 29. “Boston is one of my favorite cities, so we hope to see you there.” We caught up with Austin — a San Pedro, Calif., native who lived in Alexandria, Va., for 32 years before moving several years ago to Manhattan Beach, Calif. (where she lives with her husband, Jeff Austin, a sports attorney) — to talk about all things travel.

Favorite vacation destination? My favorite vacations have been going on safaris in South Africa with my husband and daughters. Seeing the animals in their real habitat with my family was an amazing life experience.

Favorite food or drink while vacationing? I love to try the local foods of whatever city I am in. I definitely still try to eat as healthy as possible on vacation, but it’s OK to indulge. That’s what a holiday is all about.

Where would you like to travel to but haven’t? I would love to travel to Cinque Terre in Italy to walk the coastal towns and eat the wonderful foods along the way — a great way to travel while working out.

One item you can’t leave home without when traveling? I cannot leave the house without lip balm and coconut oil. Airplanes dehydrate us, so keep moisturizer in your carry-on.

Aisle or window? Aisle because I drink lots of water on the plane, so I have to get up a few times during a flight — which is also great for circulation.

Favorite childhood travel memory? Our family would go as kids to Palm Springs to enjoy the warm weather in the winter, to enjoy all the outdoor activities. I am carrying the tradition on with my daughters and extended family, as we go every Thanksgiving.

Guilty pleasure when traveling? I love myself a good cocktail!

Best travel tip? For every hour you fly, drink one glass of water. Then, when you land, you will be hydrated and ready to go with energy. It’s a perfect way to help you fight jet lag. Also, making sure you keep up with your workouts when traveling.

Published on Feb 7, 2019 by Eclecto Tuber

This is the first Super Stomachs workout that Denise Austin did for VHS, released in 1988, and she is *very* amped up. It's clearly early in her career and she goes a bit overboard on the pep.

Compare this 14-minute Super Stomachs workout to the 40-minute VHS Super Stomachs tape she released in 1993 (https://youtu.be/uki8jeeZ6kw) and you'll see a very different and much more video-friendly Denise Austin.
