Summary: Great start to my day!
Review: I absolutely love this video. I bought a copy and sent it to my sister, also! Leslie Sansone is just the right amount of 'perky', not too sugary sweet like so many others. The music isn't the greatest, but I find myself only listening to the beat, anyway, so it isn't a factor. This video gets me going every morning - it's not too difficult or exhausting, but it gets my heartrate up!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Intro to Leslie Sansone
Review: This is the first Leslie Sansone tape I've ever tried and I enjoyed it. The instructions are basic with no choreography required as in so many tapes. Since I'm accustomed to workouts with Kathy Smith and Karen Voight, I found myself incorporating more arm movements than Leslie does to get my heart rate up. It's a great tape for those mornings when you don't feel like using the bench or having to remember complex dance moves.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great workout in 30 minutes!
Review: I highly recommend this workout. Leslie is very encouraging and gives you the motivation to keep going right through to the end. It's easy and fun. Before you know it, the workout is done. You can even do this if you don't have alot of room. You can do it in place.

It's great to see a group of women on a workout video that are just like you and me, not thin and perfect. This is a great cardiovascular workout and you do work up a bit of a sweat. It's low-impact, so you are not jumping around like most aerobic videos.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: easy to do
Review: This video was easy to do. It only lasts 30 minutes, yet it gets your heart rate elevated. The steps were not hard and she explains what you can do if the steps were to involved for you.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Short and effective for a variety of exercisers!
Review: This is a short workout (approx 30 minutes) that is suitable for a variety of fitness levels. Leslie leads a group of exercisers in a 2 mile walk, about 15mph. A meter at the bottom tracks your progress. A beginner can easily stop at 1 mile, and eventually work up to 2. A more advanced exerciser can use this tape in addition to another tape or on a day when a less rigorous workout is needed. I enjoyed the workout. I have a number of intense, dancy tapes and I was looking for something that was simple and quick. Leslie varies her step enough to prevent boredom but not so much that you have trouble keeping up. Side taps, basic marches, grapevines just simple steps. The conversation is easy and encouraging. She does get a bit shrill in her laughter in the middle (why dont these video leads realize we will have to listen to it over and over when we do the tape) but fortunately its only for a few seconds. Overall the tape is a nice addition to a fitness program!

Summary: Helped me lose 15 pounds (so far)
Review: This was the first of five of Leslie's videos I purchased over the last six months. I enjoy this video quite a bit and use it in various combinations with the other videos I've purchased by Leslie. In my opinion, this is the most intensly aerobic video she has made to date. The workout is a two mile "walk" in 25 minutes, filled with a lot of low impact moves such as sidesteps, grapevines, arm movements and other cardio raising moves you can do in four square feet in front of you television. It is cardio focused with toning a low second place. There are two parts of the video that may be hard on delicate knees, so keep that in mind. If you're concerned about knees, you may want to start with her "Over 40" video; a 30 minute/ 2 mile workout that is very good, but less intense - perhaps start with that and move up to this "2 Mile" video. I found I did better when I did that. If you want a lot of toning and cross-training focus I recommend her "In-Home Walking" video, a 20 minute mile with hand weights or "Walk and Firm: Fat Burner" video, a 35 minute, 2 mile walk/cross training video with timed intervals of aerobic and weight training (using hand weights). Of course, a great addition is her "Miracle Mile" video, great for that short, intense burst of cardio (15 minutes) for those days on the run.

Summary: Leslie Sansone's 2-Mile Walk
Review: Of the half-dozen or so of Leslie's tapes I own, this is my favorite. I've used it so much I actually wore it out and had to order another! It provides an excellent half-hour workout with a minimum of the silliness and extraneous chit-chat that can mar some of her other tapes. I really like Leslie and the five women in this tape seem like real people. I've lost over 10 lbs without dieting just using this (and other Sansone) tapes and am very pleased with the result, although I now have to use weights and add more intensity to get the best workout because my conditioning has improved so much. High recommended.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: great tape
Review: I never used an aerobic video before but bought several to try out for some diabetic patients and weight loss patients that I work with. After watching several, this one stayed home. Use it regularly in between exercise bike or treadmill. Highly recommended. My wife loves it too. I am buying several more copies for her friends

Summary: Great Workout
Review: Leslie Sansone's "2 Mile Walk" is a great exercise video. The variety of steps makes this workout interesting and challenging, and you can change the pace to suit your personal needs. If you don't think you are working up enough of a sweat, just lift your legs higher and include the suggested arm motions throughout -- it works for me. I alternate using the "2 Mile Walk" video with the shorter workout on Leslie's "In-Home Walking" video, and I find her approach to be reasonable and her style to be positive and reassuring. I have used my NordicTrack for years, but I was really ready for a change in my exercise routine. Leslie's videos are best for me because of excellent cues, clear and timely instructions, step simplicity, and her very pleasant demeanor. I have wasted money on walk videos by other exercise gurus, but the "2 Mile Walk" video is not a waste of either time or money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great workout for any fitness level
Review: I am over 40 and more than 80 pounds overweight - I have been treadmill walking 2 miles 3x a week for 8 months and I found Leslie Sansone's 2 mile walk challenging but do-able. It is definitely a better workout than what I have been doing but I can finish the whole thing. Her voice is easy to listen to, the music is good, and she mixes it up enough to make it interesting but not confusing. It goes by so fast you won't believe that you did the whole two miles by the time it ends. I love this tape!
