1, 2, 3 Walk away the Pounds Leslie is the "Queen of In-Home Walking." This is different than walking on a treadmill, but seems equally effective. You can also walk any day of the year, rain or shine, day or night. There are no limits. Leslie travels all over the world promoting fitness and holds six certificates from the American College of Sports Medicine. She also owns Club Fitness and makes appearances on the QVC Home Shopping Channel. After trying a few of Leslie Sansone's workouts, this has been my favorite workout set. I like the way you can choose between walking 1, 2 or 3 miles. If you start with the 1 mile walk, you know you can do the second and then the third video. The Three Videos: Get Up and Get Started - 1 Mile. This video shows you all the basics for a brisk walk. You start slow and work up to a nice pace, then there is a cool-down and stretch. High Calorie Burn - 2 Miles. You will be so proud of yourself when you make it to the second mile. This workout has a new level of intensity to incinerate those calories. There is a warm-up and cool-down section. This workout helps you create a smaller, tighter waistline, builds strong muscles and bones, intensifies weight loss and works the legs, chest, back and arms. (30 minutes) Super Fat Burning - 3 Mile. I loved this workout. It took me to new places because after this workout, I really saw some good results in the stomach area. I had to keep looking in the mirror to make sure it was true. This workout firms the upper and lower body, improves coordination and balance and boosts cardio strength. (47 minutes) Since I'm not the queen of coordination, these workouts are nice and easy although let me tell you, the third video is going to really work you out! If you can stand in one place and move forward, back and put your arms up and down, you can do this! Therefore, this is really for anyone! I highly recommend this set to anyone starting a new workout program or for anyone who just wants to have a little fun with their workouts. You just become one of the group and Leslie creates a very friendly, accepting environment. The use of weights really takes these videos to a new level. At first I thought Leslie was just a little ball of energy and her happiness level was pretty intense. But the more I did the videos the more I realized how good it made me feel to be in the presence of some positive energy, plus it gave me an added boost of "I can do this." The music also just keeps you moving! If you have a 5 x 7 space anywhere near a TV, these are perfect. You don't need a lot of room like many aerobic videos require. Once you get used to the two and three mile workouts, you can pass along the one mile to a friend and get them interested in workout out too. I just send the one-mile workout to my aunt. After using these tapes, I lost two pounds in the last week and my husband thought I lost 10. Thank you Leslie! These workouts really do tighten and tone you all over. Workouts that add a smiley burst of energy to your day. If you are on your couch, you better be looking out for Leslie Sansone cause she is going to "come over and get you" off that couch! At least that is what she says in the video! ;) |
