How to log Leslie Sansone's walk at home?

Options
Hey everyone,

Hope I'm putting this in the right area, but I just started doing Leslie Sansone's Walk at home exercise (found 2-15 mins on youtube, which gives me a 2 mile walk) but I wasn't sure how to log.....I've been logging as low impact aerobic only because when I looked at it online on netflix.com, it shows under category low impact workout.....I'm hoping to buy the dvd here soon (Money's tight, ugh!) But I LOVE :love: this workout!!!! SO easy, esp when I have 2 kids who barely let me exercise.....

Can someone help me?

    Good question! I just log as walking, and then usually it's 15 minute miles, for however many miles I do. But I almost always use weights so this makes me wonder if maybe it's actually circuits or low impact aerobic like you said. I'm interested to see what others think.

    I do her DVD's and this is how I log it also. Love her videos! I got a couple of mine at Wal-Mart for about $10. :)

    Well, if 1 mine is 15 min, you are going at 4 MPH. that is my thought anyways.

    I love her too. I use the "walk a mile" which is 21 minute video on exercisetv.com but I never knew how to log it either. TY for the question and answers :)



    I just found this online

    Rate = distance/time
    = 2.6miles/35mins
    = 13/275miles per minute
    Multiply by 60 to convert to hour
    = 156/35 miles/hour.


    so on 1divided by 21 minutes = 0.04761 times 60 = 2.8571 miles per hour
    on the 5mile / 73 minutes = 0.6849 x 60 = 4.1095

    I wear a HRM. I am 5' 3" and I weigh 204 pounds. I burn around 100-125 calories per mile. Yesterday for her 3 mile I burned 303 calories. I just made my own category for it.

    Yesterday I found a DVD of hers at Target for $10. It has 1, 2, 3 and 4 mile walks on it. I thought it was a great deal.
