Leslie Sansone: Walk Away the Pounds - Super Fat Burning

Summary: Love It!!
Review: I recently got turned on to Leslie and she is now my favorite cardio workout!! She is so easy to follow.. the moves are simple, but not boring. This is definitely a workout you can stick to!!!! Its not too hard, but boy does it get your heart rate up... and the simple kicks and knee lifts really work your butt and lower body.. and the simple arm movements give a great workout as well. Much better total body workout than plain old walking... and I love that its on DVD!! The work out is 3 miles.. but she tells you when you hit every .5 miles.. so you can really tailor the workout .. if you want to gradually move up.. or don't have the full 49 minutes!! Great job Leslie!

Summary: this is great
Review: I have never bought an exercise video because I thouht they were all a joke and not worth the effort or the money. I wanted to lose weight, but really hate to exercise. Then I saw an infomercial for Walk Away the Pounds and thought, how hard can that be.... I have really seen a difference in my body and my enegy level. I have lost a total of 8 lbs in just a month of this program. I think Leslie is informative, supportive and encouraging. I cant wait to get home everyday and Walk Away the Pounds. I saw a new infomercial for Walk Away the Pounds for Abs today and I cant wait to start the new program...I highly suggest that anyone looking to lose a few pounds, without stressing yourself out give this wonderful program a try.

Summary: I love Leslie!
Review: I received this dvd in the mail this afternoon from Amazon and popped it in my player immediately. This is a great 49 minute workout. On my first try doing the workout, I could follow it! It really works your thighs and upper body. She uses 2 lb ball weights but I just used my old 3 lb hand-held dumb-bells. You have the option of not even using them if the workout is too hard for you. Leslie's basic techniques are simple to do, she cues very good, it's safe and yet it's fast-paced enough to get the heart rate up there. I have a bad back so I'm careful about the types of workouts I do (can't jog, do kickbox-aerobics, ect). This is finally a workout that really gets me sweating without moving all over the place trying to keep up. Now, I'm sure there's those aerobic fanatics who'll say this workout is boring b/c of the repetitive moves, but I'm not trying to dance here. I wanted a simple yet effective workout without injuring myself, one that I could do, one that I work up a sweat, and I finally found one on DVD! I felt this was money well spent and I'll be doing this workout 2-3 times a week.

Summary: Great exercise - quit the blather!
Review: The exercises on this video really work up a good sweat, but I wish Leslie would stop the incessant yakking and keep her mind on what she's doing. Telling us we're going to do knee lifts and then doing kickbacks throws everyone off. And saying "just a few more" when she means anywhere from 12 to 42 more repititions is ridiculous. Stop the commercials, anatomy lessons, and stupid talk and give us more on form - and more silence would be nice, too. By the end of the tape I'm ready to strangle her.

Summary: Good Walking
Review: I was so excited to buy this video, I got it in 4 days after I had ordered it. I'm only 19 and with a 6 month old baby. My husband is a couple of years older than me but we almost look the same age. I weigh 152 lbs. I was trying to exercise regularly to get back in shape, but it's hard to do it on your own. I think this is a great video. I would recommend that you do your own stretches and some warm up before the video starts because she goes straight to walking. The 3 miles goes by in about 40 min then she does a cool down and 1 min of stretches. There is about 8 people joining her. There is no silent gaps in the songs. Overall the video production is good. Sometmes I do have to fastforward a mile when I don't have much time. You workout all your body muscles because she does kicks, and good arm movements, you feal your heart pumping and you do sweat after a while. SHe's not "anoying" but she does talk alot, if you want the work out you can just ignore that detail. I will come back and report any weightloss after two or three weeks. But this is a great way to get in shape in the comfort of your own home.

Summary: no professional dance training required!!!!
Review: I have tried a lot of exercise videos over the years, and found the following problems with them: the instructor and background exercisers appeared to be "Stepford Wives"; the music was irritating; the instructors were irritating; and finally, if you were not a professional dancer and/or in olympic competition physical condition, the routines were impossible to do. I just had my first child, and was finding it hard to get out of the house everyday to walk, so I decided to try one more exercise tape - "Walk Away the Pounds" - fantastic! Great workout, easy to do but really works muscles and cardiovascular - she builds in a nice balance of upper body work without compromising the "fat burner/aerobic" benefit. The 3 miles (I wore my pedometer, and it was close!) went by quickly and I know it was a much more beneficial workout than if I had just gone outside and walked 3 miles. You do not have to be coordinated or in shape to do this. If you can get up on your feet, you can do this exercise! Leslie is not too "chatty" and the music is just enough to keep you moving at the right intensity - mostly you don't even notice the music, it is there just to provide the tempo. If you're looking for some way to exercise, and don't want to join a class or use other tapes where you have to be a "dancer", get Leslie's tapes! Just wonderful!

Summary: Easy Choreography!
Review: I love all of the "Walk away the pounds" tapes but this one is my favorite. I like this tape because you get a great workout
but you don't have learn a bunch of complicated routines and
patterns to do the tape. With this tape you can work as hard
as you wish. The cues are very clear and easy to follow. The
music is non descript but not anoying. The participants in the
tape have a variety of body types and are not spandex princesses.
Leslie Sansone is a bit chatty on the tape but you can't help
liking her. I think it is very refreshing to see an aerobics
instructor who is fit but has body flaws like the rest of us.

Summary: Good Workout!!
Review: I love this workout, it's a challange, it's about 49 mins. long and you have the option of having weights involved, I use 3 lbs weights. It made me sweat and I could feel the burn in my arms and thighs, if you like Leslie's workouts you'll like this one. I workout 5-6 times a week and I can sweat good with this one, it's simple to do, VERY easy to follow and no complicated footwork. She's a very "happy" Person in all her videos, but I'd rather listen to her any day over Richard simmons (gross)! Anyway this is a good buy for those Cardio days. My hairdresser used this workout for 3 months and lost 15 lbs without following a strict diet so this is why I tried it. I know I'll lose weight with this workout it's awesome. Try it!!
