SANSONE,LESLIE - WALK SLIM: 5 REALLY BIG MILES (1 DVD)

An amazing walking workout, ideal for all ages. You build up at your own rate. The music encourages you to want to keep up with the beat. I can see a big difference in the way I look after 2 weeks. Looking forward to getting some more of Leslie's DVD's. She in amazing

COST: FAIRBEST BITS: Excellent dvd, love all her workouts, being rural and having four very small kids its very hard to get outside and walk, so I use these dvds a lot to get healthy.BAD BITS: A little cheesy but I don't mind itRECOMMEND: 100%

Great DVD to follow

It is suitable for everyone who wants to be fit and healthy. I love it and I love almost all of Leslie's workouts. Why? Simply because they are very good. :)

Although I did not care for this DVD as much as Leslie Sansone's  Walk Slim Fast & Firm 4 Really Big Miles [DVD] [2008] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC ] or her  4 Fast Miles [DVD] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC ], it DID have its' merits particularly in MILE 4 which is described on the back cover of the DVD as: "Intervals of fast walking and strength training give you a "full body" FIRMING SESSION with bursts of cardio walking!" I really loved this mile the most out of the five because it challenges you with a series of repeated squats and lunges, which, I agree with Leslie, are probably the best exercises for your legs (quadriceps and hamstrings) and derriere. In both this mile and in MILE 2 the toning band, or what Leslie has historically called the "stretchie", are used a great deal.I agree with at least one previous reviewer that for cardio this may not be the BEST of Leslie's Sansone's DVD's. The pace at least SEEMS slower. I missed the "boosted walking" of the previously mentioned DVD's. Strength training, however, especially to those of us over 50 is as much, if not even more, important than cardiovascular exercise. Women especially start to lose muscle mass after menopause.In the end I would recommend this tape be used as an alternative to other DVD's Leslie has put out alternating it with the faster, more rapidly paced tapes. You are supposed to vary your exercise routine anyway so that your body doesn't "get used to" a routine and then, not being challenged enough, does not show improvement.

great!!
