#fitspo through the ages: from Jane Fonda to Kim Kardashian

<h2>HOOKED ON FITNESS</h2> <strong>Dubbed the “queen of fitness,” Jane Fonda created</strong> 1982’s Jane Fonda’s Workout, which became the bestselling home video of all time. Her bodysuits and leg warmers could be considered the precursor to today’s athleisure trend. <br>Photo: &copy; Everett/CP
<h2>RUNWAY READY</h2> <strong>The original ’90s supermodels – Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington and Linda Evangelista</strong> – were anything but waif-like. This girl-next-door type possessed rock-hard abs, an athletic physique and a healthy appetite for life. <br>Photo: &copy; Getty Images
<h2>SPORTY CHIC</h2> <strong>For millennials raised on the Spice Girls,</strong> sports bras and tear-away pants were the uniform of girl power. They inspired late ‘90s pop stars such as Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Mandy Moore. <br>Photo: &copy; CP
<h2>DANCE FEVER</h2> <strong>A young Channing Tatum’s pas de deux with his future wife, Jenna Dewan,</strong> in 2006’s <i>Step Up</i> inspired the hip-hop dance class-as-workout – and our never-ending obsession with movies showcasing his sweet moves. <br>Photo: &copy; CP
<h2>EN POINTE</h2> <strong>Perfect posture, long, lean muscles and a swan-like elegance</strong> are the promised payouts of ballet workouts and barre classes. The trend exploded in 2010 with the film <i>Black Swan</i>, starring a svelte Natalie Portman. <br>Photo: &copy; CP
<h2>THAT BASS</h2> <strong>Kim Kardashian’s waist-trainers, Beyoncé’s vegan diet –</strong> they’ll help (maybe!), but a whittled waist and prominent backside that requires customized clothing are the result of countless squats. <br>Photo: &copy; Getty Images
<h2>ABS OF STEEL</h2> <strong>Last year was all about the backside,</strong> but this year chiselled abs are the new celebrity body craze. From Kate Hudson to Jennifer Lawrence, A-listers are proudly displaying their washboard stomachs as their best red-carpet accessories. <br>Photo: &copy; Getty Images
