If it's time to get your body to wake up and smell the calories burning, this is the workout for you. It's all about-say it with me-Interval Training. One of the fastest ways to turn your metabolism into a major fat-burner is to add short bursts of intensity, or intervals, to your workout. In this 30-minute power-walking workout, we'll add two-minute intervals of light jogging to our brisk walking pace to keep that metabolism revving in the red zone. The results? A slimmer, firmer, more energized you! You'll love what this high-powered, in-home walk/jog program does for every part of you.

I tried this workout for the first time today and absolutely love it. I've used Leslie's 2 mile video and wanted something new to add some variety to my exercise. However, I wasn't ready for a longer workout like the 3 mile. This workout is still only 30 minutes, but is a little more intense than her 2 mile walk with intervals of jogging. There are other fun moves as well that keep the workout interesting. As a lifelong couch potato I never imagined myself jogging, but it was easy interspersed with the walking. I've never really enjoyed exercise and I usually watch the clock to figure out when the workout's going to be over, but at the end of this one I was actually having so much fun I wished it would last a little longer. I highly recommend this DVD.

A great mid-intensity, mid-length workout appropriate for a wide range of exercisers
November 5, 2005
Format:DVD
I'm a regular exerciser, and I've always viewed Leslie Sansone as being more for beginners. I do have one of her other videos, WATP for Abs, 3 Miles, that I like to use when I want a longer, lower intensity, "no-brainer" workout, but I wasn't sure if Leslie could produce a shorter routine that would still provide the intensity I'd want. After reading so many great reviews of Walk and Jog, I decided to take a chance on it, and I'm so glad that I did!
Walk and Jog is basically an interval workout in which Leslie alternates segments of her traditional walking moves with gentle jogging. The workout begins with about a 6-minute warm-up which quickly got my heart rate into my target zone and kept it there. Leslie then introduces the intervals, first by upping the pace of the walk for 3 minutes, then by transitioning to 2 minutes of jogging. Again, it is a very light, fairly low-impact jog that you can easily tailor to your desired intensity level. During the jogging intervals, Leslie incorportates other moves such as front kicks, corner kicks, and leg swings (a pendulum move). There are a lot of kicks and knee lifts throughout the walking segments as well, which I really liked, as I these provide some extra core work. Also, Leslie increasingly adds arm movements to up the intensity. There are a total of 4 intervals, and then the workout ends with a 4-minute aerobic cool-down, bringing the total time in at just under 32 minutes.
I found the intensity level of this workout to be exactly what I was looking for, as I stayed in my target heart rate zone virtually the entire time, including the warm-up and cool-down. The workout could be easily modified to suit your own personal intensity level--one of Leslie's four background exercisers keeps it low impact the entire time, but you could also add additional arm movements or even light weights if you were looking to up the intensity. Leslie says that the workout is equivalent of 2.5 miles, and the time really does fly by--I couldn't believe it when she said we were halfway through. Finally, not only was this workout effective, but it was fun too! I especially enjoyed the jogging variations, and since I don't like high-impact work, I loved that these segments were kept pretty soft and low (yet still intense!). I think this video would be suitable for a wide range of exercisers, and I highly recommend it.

I've been doing Leslie Sansone's walking videos for the past year, and have managed to lose over 20 pounds in the process. I started with the 2-mile strength walk and incorporated the Stretchie and 3 to 8 pound dumbbells, then progressed to the 3-mile and 4-mile walks. Looking for the next step in the walking challenge, I was excited to see Leslie's new Walk and Jog video, so I immediately ordered it. What a workout! It is just the extra push that I needed in the progression of my exercise program. Whether you have a lot of room or a smaller space in which to exercise, this program offers that extra challenge to intermediate exercisers looking to progress to the advanced level.
