walk away lbs???

Peppychristian

Has anyone else done the walking video done on youtube (it was suggested on here) and if so how did you log it? It involves brisk walking with some variations.

Are you talking about Leslie Sanstone?

I have Leslie Sansones dvd walk away the pounds. I do it every once in a while if I cant get to the gym. I think it is a great routine.

Forgot to add, if you dont use a heart rate monitor to count your calories burnes I would log it as "walking"

I use it. I started with the 1 mile for a month with some 2 lb. weights I got at walmart not the weighted balls that are used in the dvd.

After a month I moved onto the 2 mile again with the weights. Now I'm working in the 3 mile walk for the abs but not using the waist training belt; I'm not using any weights right now, but once I'm doing it all the time I'll start working them into the routine.

So far, so good; lost 13 lbs since 11/4/11. I know the walking has helped immensely; I had lost 50 lbs several years ago by walking several miles every day with my labrador. When I lost my walking buddy I got lazy and put some of the weight back on. Now that I'm over the menopause hump I'm taking it off. I don't need a four footed companion to do the dvds and it's so unlike just plain old walking.

You really do get a good workout. Break a good sweat and feel fantastic afterwards. I count it as walking in the exercise section and depending on which one I do I either pick the 4 mph or the 5 mph version. Trust me - you speed walk in the 3 mile and it's a 45 minute long stay in place haul!
