4.0 out of 5 stars It's great to walk three miles in your living room!, January 22, 2002

By	"dizi51" (Haverhill, MA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Leslie Sansone - Walk Away the Pounds - Super Fat Burning [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have a reasonably large library of exercise videos and must rate this as one of my favorites. The workout is a good one in that I really work up a sweat and can feel the burn, yet it is easy to follow with good cues and steps that aren't too complicated. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I didn't just exercise my legs, but also my arms, waist, and pretty much everywhere else, too. I also like the fact that it is possible to do the exercises with or without weights and can vary the intensity by making bigger or smaller movements. I am an avid walker, but living in New England means that I can't always actually walk outside so being able to get three miles in my living room is a very good thing! The only negative is that Leslie just plain talks too much which I find annoying at times. Fortunately, though, since you don't need every ounce of gray matter to follow the movements, it is easy enough to tune her out on those mornings when I would rather just exercise and not hear Leslie's banter.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Winner!, December 19, 2002

By	C. Bennett (New England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Leslie Sansone won herself a whole new audience with the Walk Away the Pounds DVDs. These workouts are a wonderful way to get fit for people of all ages and fitness levels. This DVD features the 3-mile walk, for more advanced walkers. If you have completed her 1-mile and 2-mile Walk Away Workouts, this is your next challenge.

The moves are very simple:
- knee lifts
- kick backs
- side steps
- kicks
- and of course, walking

To create more intensity, she has you stepping out further, squatting into the moves, and using light weights. While she promotes the "Walk Away Weights" in the DVD, light hand weights (2 - 3 pounds) can be substituted, just be sure to watch your form.

A helpful meter appears along the way, to show you just far you've walked. Leslie's warm demeanor and encouragement really keep you motivated to make it to 3 miles. Leslie also "puts a little heaven into it" and asks us to "count your blessings every day."

The workout can be customized to fit your lifestyle, and that is one of it's greatest features. When you're looking to work harder, squat down, push yourself, and use the weights. On days that you're just not feeling 100%, skip the weights and still get a great cardio workout.

If you enjoy working out at home, this is a must-have workout. Thank you Leslie!

5.0 out of 5 stars Klutz Here!!, June 30, 2002

By	"kiminnc" (North Carolina) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Leslie Sansone - Walk Away the Pounds - Super Fat Burning [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If I can manage to keep up with this tape, than anyone can! Yes, the chat from Leslie and company can get pretty sappy, but the workout is VERY do-able and the time flies by. I'm about 35 pounds overweight and am age 40, so I do break a little bit of a sweat, but the workout itself is painless and kind of fun. Not only does the walking help build leg strength, but the upper body moves are also helping me to tone up my arms and back. I have some other videos, but this one is my favorite and the one I least dread. I like the fact that the walkers in the background are all shapes and ages and they even have one walker that does an "easier" version of the moves. No fancy dance steps or complicated routine here - just straight forward exercise. On the video they use "walk-away-the-lbs." weights, but I use 3 lb. hand weights and they work just fine. Couple this with an ab workout and this should be all you need to stay toned and healthy.
