Leslie Sansone Walking Challenge

bhurley1424

Do any of you ladies know if Leslie Sansone does a lighter intensity walk? My doctor is restricting my exercise for a few weeks due to a strained back but said I can do some light walking.

Hey, I'm not sure which dvd you have already, but usually on the back or the insert of them it has the website of her other dvd's or you can always look on amazon or google it also. But I know she has a few different walking dvd's, some are for kids and families, some are for the elderly, she has beginners walking dvd's... not really sure which would be considered lower intensity though.... I'm sure you could modify any of her dvd's though... when she is doing knee lifts or kicks just do side steps or lift a little off the ground but not all the way? Just check with your Dr first.

You are all doing so good! Keep it up, we'll all reach our goal for August!

Today I did the walk off 10 lbs- 3 mile dvd.

August Goal: 60 miles
Miles so far: 16
Miles to go: 44

I have the 1,2,3,4,5 mile Leslie Sansone video. When I first started doing it I did a mile every day for a week and ended up sore. I'd like to try 1/2 mile for a week then graduate to a mile, then 1-1/2 miles, the 2, because I have over 100 lbs to lose and serious joint problems and back problems and am always waylaid with pain when I exercise. That's 19 miles til the end of August starting today, and skipping the day I am on vacation at Waterworld in Adventureland in Des Moines, IA.

I am so inspired!

Thanks! I've been looking and I think I'll try the beginner one (I have a 5 mile walk and tone one I think) and modify like you said. I'll just take it easy. I haven't done any more miles yet; may be just a 1/2 mile at a time now.

that's a good safe way to start walking... just work your way up. Don't want any injuries and if you start with too many you could not only get hurt, but start feeling less inspired to do it. I love these walking dvd's. I didn't do any walking today, but I'll definitely be doing it tomorrow. We're all going to reach our August goal and be so proud we did it! Then we can set a new goal for September!

Hi! I would like to join in, too. I bought a Leslie Sansone DVD about 3 weeks ago and haven't cracked open the cellophane yet. So, this would be great motivation for me. I'll pledge 10 miles for the remainder of August.

hufflepuffin

I have the DVDs, too and I would like to join!
I'm sure I can kick out 25 miles by the end of the month!

Any of you are free to add me, too. We can do this!!!

Today I did the 1 mile walk at home with Leslie Sansone but I have absolutely no idea how to list it in the exercise log on this site. Any help from anyone on here would be appreciated. My goal is to do 25 miles by August 31, 2011.

On her dvd's I try to find out if she states how fast, some of the dvd's on the back or throughout the video she states if it is 4mph, 5mph, etc. Sometimes I just go by how many minutes it takes to complete a mile and use fitness calculators to determine it.

Welcome to the new walkers! This challenge is a great way to get motivated to walk! I'm hoping to reach my goal for August and increase my goal for September.

Did the 5 mile walk/jog video today (after doing 60 minutes on the elliptical.. so my legs are super sore right now)! I did not walk at all Saturday or Sunday, I've had this toothache all weekend, wasn't as bad today as those days so I made myself suffer through it and just workout anyway... sitting around wasn't making it go away.

August Goal: 60 miles
Miles so far: 21

as long as you stick with it and complete as many as possible... you need to heal your body, so take it easy.
