Summary: A plain old good walk
Review: I own entirely too many walking tapes, but this one is a find. Good pace, original music which is not repetitive, excellent warm up and cool down section. Tape gives you the option of two 30-minute sessions or one 46-minute session. There is an instructor assisting you with warm up and cool down exercises and the occasional reminder of proper walking technique, breathing, etc. These instructions are not "invasive" as the instructor's voice is pleasant and the interruption is brief (some other tapes I have include the ramblings of slightly condescending instructors with annoying voices). All in all, a good walking work-out.

Summary: Good for beginners
Review: Like another reviewer, I bought this tape with high hopes for a great walk. The music is pretty, and I enjoy listening to it, but the pace is WAY TOO SLOW! I usually just put this in my walkman for company while I walk, and walk much faster. I also hate the beginning where the instructor talks through a warm-up and stretches. Why not just start walking? The longer workout, combining both sides of the tape, is what I usually use, and even this is not strenuous enough for me. Like I said before, the only reason I keep the tape, is that I like the music.

Review: then you might like this tape. However, if you actually like a beat in your music...run the other direction. I would recommend this to someone who has never owned a walkman and gone on an exercise walking workout. The music is from most elevator soundtracks....I would describe it as listening to a Michael Bolton cd. I have to admit that I was really in shock with the slow-jazziness of it. I had high hopes when I bought this tape....instead, my grandmother now listens to it.

Summary: Nice Beat ! !
Review: Weight Watcher's Walk includes music and tips for three different levels of walking along with warm-up and cool-down sessions.The music has a nice beat. When I first began walking to "Weight Watcher's Walk," I thought to myself, "I sure wish this tape didn't include that annoying warm-up session. Her voice sounds like someone who is trying to either put someone to sleep or practicing stress relief techniques." Then I read the review written by "A Reader from Russellville, AR." I agree with her 100%. I "hate the beginning where the instructor talks through a warm-up and
stretches. Why not just start walking?" I don't mind the cool-down, but the warm-up is an annoyance. I do my own warm-up and don't feel like listening to someone elses warm-up routine. I would like the tape much better if there was one 40 minute walk and a one hour walk. I will continue to use this cassette tape for my walking routine because I like the beat of the music. After the warm-up, it gets better. I give it 4 stars ****.
