Description:
This 1990 workout is simple enough for even first-time exercisers. Leslie Sansone and a roomful of women (whom she addresses as "girls") from her fitness center present 45 minutes of "walk-aerobics" consisting of four basic, low-impact moves: marching, low kicks, knee-ups, and side steps (also known as step-touch). Although Sansone sometimes adds directional and arm changes, the steps get repetitive. This might appeal to some beginners, but will bore exercisers who prefer the stimulation of variety, choreography, and/or challenge. Since the moves are so simple, it's incomprehensible why Sansone never catches on that she should cue the viewer's direction rather than her own. Her frequent "right, left, right, left" is annoying when we're actually doing "left, right, left, right," mirroring her. After the aerobics, you get 15 minutes of traditional floor work for the lower body and abdominals. --Joan Price
