Editorial Reviews

The small area in front of your TV is all the space you need to follow this 45 minute walking workout. Equivalent to a 3-mile walk, this workout uses much more muscle of the upper body than a typical walk outdoors. Leslie uses the Walk Away Belt during the 3rd mile. Walk Away the Belt not included.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable as always, quirkier than most..3 miles well spent!, January 19, 2005

This review is from: 123 Mile Super Fat Burner with Leslie Sansone (VHS Tape)

A slight variation on most of Leslie's videos, in that it takes place in her actual living room & she is joined by perhaps half a dozen walkers of varying ages, differing costumes & no real cohesiveness. They are acknowledged but not encouraged to participate in the chatter. Some of them seem ill at ease, & the overall quality of the camera work is a bit more amateurish & home movie-ish than one might expect.

Still, a great warm-up to the 3 miles, a slightly more subdued & businesslike demeanor from Leslie...all's on the up & up...until the second mile, which is given over to one of the Walkaerobics instructors, Mary Kay, who emerges from her fellow background walkers & proceeds to demonstrate a frenzied, almost sadistic, CERTAINLY challenging workout for a full mile. Whoa!!

While I appreciate shaking up the formula now & again (& Mary Kay is one impressive broad with her boundless energy & exaggerated & innovative moves), she doesn't quite have Leslie's gift of reaching the widest possible audience & making this sweat-inducing challenge seem accessible. But she's inspiring in her own way.

Leslie returns, bringing the proceedings to a satisfying cool-down & stretch. Even with the jolt of the middle portion, it's a great & well-spent 3 miles. I think it dates from 1998 & looks relatively contemporary, has pleasant, beat-driven instrumental music & less emphasis than usual on posture/benefits of exercise/talk of fluid & muscle activity & joints & other fitness jargon.

Overall a fun presentation & worth owning, I think, for an occasional change of routine.

I love Leslie Sansone & actually appreciate her cheery chatting...she has a spiritual, joyful quality that shines through the script as well as genuine kindness & determination.

Track this down & enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars An intense 3-mile workout!, February 16, 2007

This review is from: 123 Mile Super Fat Burner with Leslie Sansone (VHS Tape)

This is one intense 3-mile workout! I liked the variations on regular moves--the cross-over knee lifts use muscles you didn't know you had, the lunges with the WalkBelt were demanding, the grapevine/knee lift combination asks your muscles to quickly move your body around.

The nice thing about Leslie's workouts is that once you learn the techniques, you can adapt them to pretty much any of her other videos to increase the intensity. The variations in this workout are definitely going to be incorporated in the other LS workouts I do.

At the end of Mile Three she says you can use the WalkBelt in Mile Two and just adapt to the moves. To me Mile Two is the most intense mile in ANY of the LS workouts I own (and I own a lot, including the 4-Mile Express and the fairly new 5-mile). My new fitness goals are: 1. Get through Mile Two without collapsing, and 2. Once I can do that, add the WalkBelt.

I just got this video yesterday and did the workout last night. I liked it so much I've bought a second copy to keep as a spare. This video is going to get a lot of use from me. (P.S. I'm 60 years old.)

I love this video. You can do 1, 2 or all 3 miles. Lots of variety in the steps, much more so than her Walk Away the Pounds Tapes. Leslie and Mary Kay are very encouraging. I lost 12 pounds doing this workout. One of my Favorite Leslie Sansone workouts.
