Summary: Older Walking Workout with Leslie
Review: If you are a veteran of the Walk Away The Pounds 2-mile walk, you will have no problem completing this two-mile, 30-minute walk. It is a do-able supplement to the Walk Away workouts, for days when you don't want to use weights and need a little more variety. This DVD does not have any strength training, and uses very little in the way of arm movements.

However, there are a few things that really date this DVD. Be aware that this is a re-released old workout from 1992. The music is very dated. Leslie is also continually referring to using a VCR with the workout: "Fast forward to the cool down" or "if you didn't catch this step, rewind and do it again." The clothes and hair styles also really date this DVD, from the "big sock" look to the layered leotards.

The moves themselves are more complicated than her Walk Away workout. For example, she has you doing several variations on side steps - lots and lots of 80's style grapevines, stepping to the corners at an angle, and even backwards.

The bonus features on this DVD include a short biography of Leslie (non-interactive), and a URL link to Current Video (the manufacturer). The DVD features a three-minute introduction, where the walkers themselves are interviewed about the walking workouts and their success with them. Leslie then introduces the walkers (the same walkers as the "Miracle Mile" DVD). What I really appreciate about Leslie's choice of walkers is that they are "real" people. One of the walkers lost over 100 pounds!

While I really appreciate Leslie's Walk Away Workouts, I find this release to still need some tweaking (how about a make over?). I only use it occassionally, to throw some variety into my workouts. If you're bored, and looking for something else to try with Leslie, give this a go.

Summary: Let's get walking
Review: Bought this on a whim after seeing Leslie mentioned in one of the women's magazines. Walking indoors seemed like a stupid idea to me. I love to get out an walk with the dog etc. But, I tried this. It is a great workout. Arms, thighs, etc. It is encouraging to see chubby people working out, not all beautiful model types. Leslie can be a bit goofy at times, but she gets you through two miles with ease and sweat. It is worth the money. Go for it.

Summary: great tape
Review: I've been using this tape for a little over a week and I find it a great workout. The first time I tried it, I thought it was a little too easy. However, by the third time, I made sure to lift my legs higher on the kicks and raise my knees more on the leg lifts and "walk" more briskly with more arm movement, and I really started to feel the workout. Definitely something I can see myself keeping up.

Summary: Two Mile Walk
Review: I hate exercise; I love Leslie Sansone. She is fun, friendly, supportive and non-threatening!After alternating In-Home Walking (with weights)-a favorite-with Miracle Mile (no wgts.) for about four years, I have now used this one and the Two Mile Walk and Firm about 5 times. The first two are perfect for beginners; the second two are more intense and good workouts. The Two Mile Walk is with a group, in a gym, no wgts. (you could add them); the Two Mile Walk and Firm is without the group on her gorgeous patio in Pennsylvania and alternates between aerobics, no wgts., and firming, with wgts. You can stop any time and fst.fwd. to cooldown. You can also fst.fwd. her success stories after the 1st time! I am still not bored with In-Home Walking and feel the same about the Two Mile Walk. They are actually fun!

Summary: A Wonderful Workout!!!
Review: I purchased this exercise video a week ago. I love it!! It is so easy to follow. I like how it tracks miles in quarters so you can stop at equal intervals. I started off getting to a mile and then worked up to a mile and a quarter, now I am up to a mile and three-quarters. I would recommend this video to anyone who wants a great workout with easy steps. I just ordered another of Leslie's videos today.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great in the Winter!
Review: I ordered this tape while stuck in Minnesota for several months during the winter. Admittedly, I am no jock, and had not been working out, so this was about my speed. I like the "meter" that let's you know "how far" you've "gone" to that point. I'm back home now, and back to actually walking OUTSIDE, but have passed this tape on to my 68 year old mother who uses it everyday, and has used it to recover from an ankle injury when walking away from home was too worrisome. If you just need a good tape for home workout, this is a good buy.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I am enjoying this!!
Review: I received this video about a week ago. I have begun using it and I am sweating up a storm. It is strictly low-impact, however it is effective. I will admit that the more weight I loose and the better my health becomes I will have to do two things first I will have to at wrist weights and then I will alternate this program with a more advance program. I don't know what other people look for in a video but I have read other reviews, and the comments are interesting. "the outfits, the music, her talking. For me it gets the job done.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I love this video
Review: I love this video. Leslie Sansone is a great instructor. This workout is VERY EASY TO FOLLOW, and it's FUN. I get bored very easily with some workout videos, but this one I love. She does a variety of steps and she KEEPS ME MOTIVATED, too. The only thing I didn't like is that there isn't alot of arm movement, so I just move my arms the way she does on her other videos (but, I still gave it 5 stars, because I love it so much). She has alot of great videos. I also recommend "Leslie Sansone's Walk & Firm Far Burner." It's a great work out with weights.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for home workout
Review: When you can't get to the gym or out for a run or walk, this video is perfect... Easy to follow, upbeat and depending how you work your arms and marching, can be as high impact as you want from a walking video. Would definitely recommend to all ages.
