4.0 out of 5 stars
A Good Exercise Video, November 16, 2001
By A Customer
I like several of Leslie Sansone's walking workout videos. From best to worst, here's how I rank the 5 I own:
2-MILE WALK -- 5 STARS. Her best video. Good pace, lots of variety. Not too hard for a beginner. It has a mileage gauge, which helps keep me going. (1996)
MIRACLE MILE -- 4½ STARS. A 1-mile walking workout in 15 minutes, plus a cool down and stretches. Great for those days when I haven't much time but I want to get some quick exercise in. Also good on days of cramps, if tired, etc. (1996)
WEIGHT LOSS WALK -- 3½ STARS. Has 3 20-minute segments of 1 mile, 1.5 miles, and 1.5 miles. Excellent for variety. Handy for those days when I want a different distance. Segments can be done alone or combined for a wide variety of distances -- up to 4 miles. A mix of familiar and different movements. Some of the exercises are a little goofy but it's good variety. Don't like the silent gaps between songs. (1993)
Not recommended:
PLUS 40 WORKOUT -- 2 STARS. A 2-mile workout, not nearly as good as "2-MileWalk". Seems somewhat amateurish. Has silent gaps between songs. (1989)
WALK & FIRM -- 2 STARS. Leslie with hand weights doing safe and simple exercises. Unfortunately, I really can't get into it, and I've never finished the video. (1998)
Leslie's videos are hard enough but not too hard for people just getting back into exercise. When I use them daily (especially mornings) I find I'm much less hungry all day. I've lost 9 pounds in 3 weeks. I try to exercise daily but usually do so 4-6 times a week. I feel better, sleep better, and have better posture.

This video got me hooked on walkaerobics!, November 28, 1999
I started a diet and Leslie Sansone's walkaerobics program the same day. Leslie is so encouraging that I didn't quit when I found the first day somewhat difficult. My legs tired, but I slowed down as she suggested during the video and was able to complete the one mile walk. Since that time, I have completed the one mile walk with increasing ease. Now I have the two mile walk video and the video for people over 40. I love them all. I have learned that low impact aerobics mixed with walking can be fun and definitely contribute to weight loss.
I recommend this video to any one who wants to exercise at home. I go to the gym three days a week and do the walkaerobics videos on alternate days.

Fast and effective!, March 11, 2001
This is one of my favorite Leslie Sansone walking tapes. Its a brisk 15 minute mile with upbeat music. Leslie is her usual encouraging self. She leads a group of exercisers with simple steps that are varied enough to prevent boredom but low impact and easy to do. I pop in the tape for a quick walk after meals. It burns calories yet doesn't take a lot of time. At the end of the tape she leads you in a few minutes of toning exercises. A super video!
