In the photo, young women wait to perform at an aerobics dancing contest. They are wearing nylon aerobics outfits and sleeveless white knitting shirts, covered by their own coats due to the weather.

During the early 1980s, aerobics dancing became popular and people who participated in contests on behalf of enterprises and work units would be the envy of many.
