Leslie Sansone: Walk at Home - 5 Mile Fat Burning Walk

The 5 Mile Fat Burning Walk with Leslie Sansone includes 5 different Mile segments, each under 15 minutes, so you can do one Mile or two, or all five. This video includes Boosted walking, into a light jog and other boost moves. Leslie makes it easy to do either the low-impact walking & moves, or the boosted moves. I never thought I would jog, but found I could do it with Leslie, amazing! I like to do One Mile in the morning and One Mile in the evening - so I get 30 minutes of good exercise and it does not seem like a chore! Also included is a short cool-down and stretch, although it is not on the Menu. It is at the end of Mile 5, and it is easy to use the track button on your remote to get to it if you don't want to do Mile 5. I would like it better if it were on the Menu. Miles 1 and 5 are just with Leslie, and Miles 2, 3, and 4 are with Leslie and a group. The group is nice because they are regular people, not fitness models, and it is interesting to see how different each person does the Walk with Leslie even though they stay in sync. One thing I like about Leslie is she will remind you to do what is right for you, so if kicks are not good for you that day, you can keep walking instead and you won't feel bad that you can't keep up. Bonus track is an eight minute interview with Nicole, who lost over 100 pounds walking with Leslie. Nicole is in the group segments of the workouts too. I really enjoy this particular group of workouts with Leslie, and highly recommend this DVD. I find Leslie motivating, upbeat, and habit-forming! Leslie has two beginner workouts at Realage.com (as of this writing) so you can see if you like her style or not. Those workouts are very basic so soon you will want the Five Mile Fat Burning Walk DVD to really boost those moves!

I can honestly say I am a Leslie Sansone veteran exerciser/expert since I own just about every walking video she has ever produced and work out to them often enought to have memorized all the routines. This is the one workout video I use more than any other for the following reasons .... 1) it's a 5 miler with no breaks, which means I can get in an extra long workout in less time, 2) the jogging intervals means a greater calorie burn, 3) her usual clear cues are easy to follow 4) the music and her pep talk keeps you motivated to keep going without getting bored 5) because this is a walking/jogging workout, you can vary the intensity yourself depending on your own fitness and energy level. Leslie is my favorite video exercise instructor for so many reasons, but mainly because she's such a likeable person and she makes all her workouts fun and non-intimidating or complicated. If you know how to walk, perform knee-ups, side step, perform grapevines, kick and jog, than you can do her workouts. This workout is divided into 5 X 1 mile segments. From the start menu, you can choose to do the entire workout or pick which mile to start from and go from there. Each mile ends with a 2 minute jogging interval and if you do the entire workout, you will have completed about 10 minutes of jogging. Leslie is by herself for miles 1 and 5 and has her walking buddies with her for miles 2 - 4. It should be noted for those long time Leslie fans, that a familiar face from Leslie's workout video past joins the fun in miles 3 and 4 and that mystery person is Denise, who originally joined Leslie in her 3 Mile Fat Burning workout video that was released sometime around the mid - late 90s. I recognized her right away! Sadly, Mary Kay, Joanne, Linda and Carol are not in this video. I've noticed Leslie has been introducing new walking buddies in her newer videos and she has several newbies in this one too. Incidentally, because this workout is a super calorie blaster, I have found that by doing this workout often enough, I can have weekend splurges and still maintain my weight. Another plus! I hope Leslie will release more 5 milers. I love them most of all since the 4 milers are getting too easy for me.

Getting back into an exercise program after gaining weight is really hard. I usually walk or ride my bike, but I was too heavy and embarrassed to put on active wear and go outside in public. So, this dvd was an excellent way to get back into it again. Each mile is a little bit harder and they let you know when you hit each half mile too. Leslie is very motivating and upbeat, and the steps are easy to do. Don't let "easy to do" fool you though. I work out hard and really sweat. The steps are simple to learn, but this is a really good workout. In fact, I really feel that I work out much harder than I do when I walk outside or ride my bike. After 4 weeks I'm up to 4 miles now and it's great. I've lost 7 pounds also!! I'm very happy I got this one. The music is pretty good, but since I do this 4-5 times a week, I needed some different tunes or I'd lose my mind, a common problem with dvd's at home. Simple solution, put on Pandora and play your favorite dance music. It's a little off beat from the dvd, but you can still follow along easily and honestly, I think I accidentally go faster when I'm listening to my own tunes. They also do 2 minute power boosts (higher impact but not crazy) at the end of each mile so you can always work out a little harder and push yourself if you want to, or just stay at the low impact steps. I think this is a great dvd to grow with, from beginners to intermediates. Advanced people? I don't know, I would say they would be ok too, but might find it too elementary. 12 minute miles are nothing to sneeze at though, I am very proud of the fact that I've worked myself up to a 4 mile/48 minute aerobic workout. There are sneak previews on youtube of the first mile, so if you're not familiar with Leslie, you can get a glimpse. That's what I did before buying.

You'll burn fat in this one, all right! Choose from five 12-minute miles for when you're pressed for time or do them all at once! This is a high-energy walk that includes 2-minute 'boosts' (gentle jogs) at the end of every mile. Leslie has some great interaction with her cast at times - she's got such a great sense of humor! I like doing this one first thing in the a.m. before work - I can get a good 2 miles done and do a cool-down and stretch in just under 30 minutes. I'd recommend it for Intermediate - might be a bit brisk for anyone who hasn't exercised in a long time. But as always, you can definitely modify the moves to suit your own fitness level, such as sticking to a power walk when Leslie goes into the boost - she'll tell you that herself as well. Highly recommended

dass die Workouts von Leslie Sansone in Deutschland nicht bekannter sind. Es handelt sich hierbei und ein Low-Impact-Training, das zwar fordert, aber für jeden machbar ist und nicht erschöpft. Ein wunderbares Cardiotraining, für jeden machbar, da man die Intensität auf die eigenen Bedürfnisse anpassen kann. Die Programme von Leslie erstecken sich über 1-Mile-Workouts bis hin zu 5 Meilen, die dann aber auch Zeit erfordern, da man für die fünf Meilen ca. 1 Stunde, 20 Minuten (inkl. Stretching) rechnen muss. Allerdings finde ich die kurzen Workouts sehr ansprechend, wenn man mal nicht viel Zeit hat, sich aber trotzdem mal bewegen möchte. Keine Entschuldigung mehr für die "ich hab keine Zeit für Sport-Fraktion" - 15 - 20 Minuten SIND für jeden machbar. Ab und an nervt mich Leslies Dauerbrabbeln Für Andere ist es motivierend, es lenkt ab und die Zeit vergeht schneller. Mir wirds manchmal zu viel und ich greife auf meinen MP3 zurück und schalte Leslie stumm. Ansonsten, ich wiederhole mich. Tolles Produkt, tolle Workouts, Leslie ist sehr sympatisch und ich kann sie nur weiter empfehlen

Leslie s'entoure de femmes (et d'un homme) de tous âges, qui ont eu ou non à lutter contre le poids. On cale ses pas ou sa course sur place sur la personne qui nous correspond par son âge, sa corpulence ou son niveau. On choisit de toujours marcher, ou d'alterner avec des pas à base de jogging. Ce programme ne nécessite pas d'avoir beaucoup de place. Il est toutes zones, donc visible en Europe ! et s'adresse aux débutants comme aux confirmés. Leslie et les autres marcheurs sont très motivants.

Ottimi esercizi. Leslie Sansone é sicuramente simpatica e trascina facilmente anche i piu' pigri. Rispetto ad altri suoi lavori manca l'utilissimo (a mio parere) countdown sullo schermo che indica quanto manca al termine della sessione. Leslie é molto chiaccherona e ha un entusiasmo molto americano. Puo' piacere o infastidire
