Movie Reviews
Love Leslie Sansone, but not the 3 mile on Walk Slim

"I really enjoy Leslie Sansone dvds. I like the Walk Slim 1&2 mile, but the 3 mile is a not for me. In the 3 mile workout, the music, the walkers and the addition of new steps all over the place just left me feeling frantic instead of energized. However, the 1&2 mile is classic but improved Leslie Sansone. Just a heads up though, it is really one workout. Specifically, the 1 mile chapter option just brings you into the already started 2 mile walk. Now the 2 mile walk I really liked. I liked the music, the pace, the steps, the intervals, all of the walkers, her chatter, all of it. The intervals are, of course, periods of higher intensity exercise followed by recovery exercise. I really feel that the low impact version is the same as in her past videos - she just never called it out as such. But there has often been periods of more intensity and then back to walking. The great thing is that it really isn't distracting to have some walkers do the high impact and others the low impact. I only became a bit distracted for a very short instant during the third interval when 4 of 6 were doing high impact.
On a side note, the DVDs I received wer mislabeled. The disc for the 3 mile really had the 1/2 mile on it and vice versa. I am returning the discs to Amazon. Maybe I will buy again at a brick store for easy return in case I get another one like this. P.S. My favorite leslie Sansone are express 4 mile super challenge and WATP 3 mile fat burner."
Two Thumbs Up for the 3 Fast Miles

"There are two DVDs in the case. The first one is called Fast Start and has a 2 mile interval walk on it (she lets you know when one mile is done so if you don't want to do 2 miles, you can skip to the cool down). She does her usual moves (marching, side steps, knee lifts, hamstring curls) and every few minutes gives the option of doing a higher intensity burst (jog instead of march, leg swings instead of side steps). It's a perfectly fine workout and I'm sure lots of people will like it, but it didn't really appeal to me and I don't know how much use I'll get out of it. The second DVD is called 3 Fast Miles. It moves along at a pretty brisk pace. She throws in a few extra moves that you don't usually see in her workouts. Don't worry, the steps are still easy enought to catch onto, and it adds a nice bit of variety to the usual fare. There are some spots where her cueing is off, but after a couple times through you know where they are and can anticipate it. Also, late in the workout she has MaryKay lead for a little bit, but she isn't miked so you have to watch her hands to know what move is coming up. The good news is, this workout has some of the best music she's ever used. It's very up tempo and some of it is actual recognizable songs with lyrics. It makes it feel kind of party-like to me and Leslie herself is quite obviously having fun here. This is my new favorite Leslie workout!"
Faster, Stronger Leslie!

"I own several Leslie DVD's and REALLY, REALLY enjoy the faster pace of these two workouts (2 mile and 3 mile.) The two mile workout comes in at about 30 minutes, and the three mile workout is about 45 minutes; neither is choreographically challenging, but you will work up a good sweat! Leslie is as chatty as ever, the music is better than ever, and the setting is ... updated! The interesting camera work and black background give it a fresh, modern look different from the "garden patio" or "window" settings of her other workouts ... and it's just plain fun!"
Awesome

"let me tell you i have done alot of leslies videos and this one is awesome it is sooooooooooooo much fun to do and you will definetly feel it the next day. i know alot of people dont like to hear her chatter but this one is so much fun to watch because it has awesome music and it is very uplifting. of all her videos this 3 mile one is the only one i am going to use from now on. i used a perdometer and it calculated 5894 steps short of 106 for the 6000 you walk for a regular 3 mile walk. trust me this one is fun.for those of you who cant stand the chatter it has a music only button."
Fast Start, Fine Finish!

"I ordered the Walk Slim Fast Start & 3 Fast Miles, thinking they would be similar to other Leslie Sansone work-outs. I should have tuned into the word "fast" in the title, but it went right over my head. These workouts are definitely faster than most of her other workouts. Since I am 58 years old, overweight, and have been dealing with rheumatoid arthritis for 10 years, they proved to be a little fast for me. I can do the two mile on a good day, but the three-mile is beyond my reach at the moment.
However, I think that younger people in good shape would really like both workouts.I have read reviews of Leslie's walks saying they are not challenging enough. Well,these two are! The music is snappy and you will really get a good workout if you can keep up and make it to the end! You will also use your abs a lot. I am sure you would lose weight if you did these regularly.
