    me too me too!:flowerforyou:

    I have the DVD's but have yet to use them for any extent of time, I do use the gym but would love to use these more at home to have things here in between gym workouts.

    Thanks for having this group available:drinker:

    Looking forward to my work out when my daughter Abby goes down for her nap, will need to get laundry going first but then it is walking here I come.

    Plus me and a friend are checking out a gym only 2 blocks from my apartment so that should be good. We figure the only time we will be able to work out is late at night but that is ok since it is open 24 hours..... Plus I figure if we make a plan to meet it will make me go to the gym.

    I am going to start training to do a 10K at the end of summer so I figure this will help.

    Chat Later,
    Tracy
    Sounds perfect Tracy, close to home, working out with a friend, ENJOY!:wink::happy:

    Hey MFP friends....

    Today is a rest day for me.. I am so sore from working out with the trainer. My arms are swollen. It's horrible but a good horrible..

    I was going to go for a walk outside but the wind is horrible and we live in a pretty rural area, everyone has 5 acre parcels so we have dust blowing like mad..

    I'm working on my food diary today.. Shopping list ect...


    walk away those pounds.....

    :ohwell: HELP

    Which is the first Leslie Sansone WATP DVD to begin? I'm a bit confused.. Here's the ones I have maybe someone can help me figure out what order to use them in. :flowerforyou: Gawd, I hope this isn't a silly question:blushing:

    Walk Slim Fast Start 1 & 2 Mile - 3 Fast Miles

    Walk Slim 4 Fast Miles

    Walk Slim Fast & Firm - 4 Really "Big" Miles

    Walk Slim Fast Firming (total Body workout to Firm & SLim your arms, legs and flatten your tummy!) with firm band

    This is the order I think they go in, am I correct?

    Thanks Gang for any help on this:flowerforyou: :wink:

    That order looks pretty good to me but I don't really think the order is as important as the length you can manage. When I started I did one mile a day the first week and then moved up to 2 miles a workout. Then just increase as you feel like it. You can also increase your intensity by making bigger movements and following Leslie's leads for more intensity. I have several of the workouts and just rotate them as I want while trying to mix up the targeted areas. One day I'll do a workout that targets abs, then the next day do arms or legs. I think it helps to mix up the muscles you are targeting. Since I work I usually save the longer workouts for the weekends.

    This list came from the walkathome website. I never knew there were so many.

    Live At The Club, It’s Walk~Aerobics by Leslie Sansone(2 miles) (You'll see Nancy, JoAnne, Lucia, & Judy in this first ever Walk Aerobics) 1986

    Advanced Walk Aerobics (2 miles)(LOTS of arm work and a burst of really FAST music that has you speed walking!) 1986

    Walk Aerobics 40 Plus Workout (2 miles) (Has a modified 'muscleman' arms movement) 1988

    (IMO - thankfully no boosters were used in these first 3 workouts - they are super intense enough without any!! Cheryl)

    The Too Busy To Workout Workout (firming segment at end w/weights) 1988 (LOVE to jog? This is the mile for you!! About an 18 minute mile with 3/4 of it jogging - TWISTING while jogging, SIDEKICKS while jogging, KNEELIFTS while jogging, and JUMPING JACKS! You'll see Nancy and Beth in this workout. The 12 minute firming segment includes the military press, lateral raises, bicep curls, tricep kickbacks, oblique twists, side bends and lunges!)

    Basic Stepping with Walk Aerobics (w/stepper) (30 minute step workout with walk aerobics added in - HIGH energy for sure!!)

    Walking Fat Burner Workout (1990)featuring the walk leaders. (This is Leslie's first 3 mile 45 minute workout - included are jogging intervals; with MaryKay demonstrating how to do these same intervals low impact. Following the walking is the 15 minute firming segment which includes leg presses, leg raises, crunches and reverse crunches.)

    Walk Aerobics for Seniors 1991- (2 miles of a fun, fun walk with Leslie and a group of real seniors; watch for "uncle Skinny" in the red/pink hat in the back row - when he 'travels' you'll see him walk right out of the room! He's a real hoot! I love the music in this - most of it is the Big Band era music and so appropriate for this group of walkers! Lots of arms, great pace and its not for sissys!!)

    Walk Off Weight System-Weight Loss Walk 1992- three 20 minute segments equally a total of 4 miles- (Leslie alone in 1st segment-intro to the kickback, and other new steps: out out-in in, double knee lifts, box step, side shuffle. This segment is 1 mile.
    2nd segment equals 1 1/2 miles and includes the mambo, heal touches with knee lifts, tap outs with arms up, out, and down, forward tap back and tap, and its got some kinda country music! Some clever combo moves like 4 knee ups forward and 4 kickbacks back, walk up 2, legs out and in walk back 2, legs out and in, the box step, and more!
    3rd segment equals 1 1/2 miles and includes a sort of cancan step of knee up and kick, then knee up and kick to the other side, tap outs with arms out then down and back to work the triceps, double side steps with a knee up and arms pulling back and forth, out together out knee up and arms up and down, to mention a few.
    This is a real sweaty workout and what a workout you'll get!!!

    Walk Off Weight System - Firm Off Weight (w/weights) 1992 This workout is an equivalent of 3 miles if all three 20 minute segments are done. 1st segment concentrates on the lower body-hips/thighs/backend; 2nd segment is the upper body; 3rd segment is more leg work and more abs and waistline work. These exercises are THE best basic exercises to really target the entire body! They include: leg raises for inner and outer thigh, bent leg raises w/or w/o weights, pushups from the knee position, military presses, lateral raises, bicep curls and tricep kickbacks-all with weights; also included is the squat, lunges, lots of crunches. A great exercise for the lower abs is: hands positioned under the tailbone, bend knees, crunch up and bring knees in, then take the toes and touch the floor; a more intense move on this one is to cross the feet and keep the knees apart then bring the knees up when crunching then toes to the floor. You really feel this one the next day!!

    The Miracle Mile 1996 (A 15 minute mile that flies by! All the basic,classic steps you love! An awesome, sweaty, heart-pumping mile! Then finish up with a 5 minute firming segment with lunges, pushups and ab curls.)

    2 Mile Walk 1996 (30 minute 2 mile walk with lots of great combinations! Grapevines with arm circles and kickbacks; knee up and 3 walks; kickbacks with heal touches and kneeups; squats and abductions at the end, its a 12 minute first mile and a 13 minute 2nd mile.


    Firm Up Fast (w/exertube and/or weights) 1996 (3 toning segments, each 10 minutes long - works all the muscles!)

    1, 2, 3 Mile Super Fat Burner (w/walk belt in 3rd mile)1998 (3 great miles, the infamous "Mary Kay Mile" is mile 2! Third mile introduces the walk belt)

    1 Mile High Calorie Burn (w/weights & 'Perfect Portions' talk at the end) 1998 (great way to begin a day when you only have time for 1 mile!)

    Signercize

    Walk And Firm Fat Burner (interval walk w/weights) 1998 (2 mile interval workout with 5 firming intervals; lots of squats and lunges, includes the box step and the forward tap, back and tap)

    Fit-N-Firm (w/Lex Loop aka Fit Cuff) 2000

    Walk Off Weight At Home - 1/2 Mile - introduction to the walking (volume 1)

    Walk Off Weight At Home - 2 Mile Walk! w/Florine Mark (volume 2) 2000

    Walk Off Weight At Home - Power Walk 4 Miles! w/Florine Mark (volume 3) 2000 (miles 1 and 2 have Leslie walking with Florine Mark from Weight Watchers as well as other WW staff; miles 3 and 4 have Leslie and some of the walk leaders power it up- nice seeing the walk leaders each taking center stage and leading the group.

    Walk Off Weight At Home (edited verson of 4 mile) (volume 3) 2000
    (The first 2 miles of the Power Walk 4 Miles)

    Power Walk (w/gloved weights in mile 3) 2000 (3 great miles of walking while wearing 1 or 2 lb gloved weights; LOTS of lateral raises, bicep curls and tricep work. A strong reminder to always wear good supportive fitness shoes while walking.)

    Power Firm (w/ankle weights) 2000 (Standing work as well as floor work, exercises include leg curls, back leg lifts, staight leg raises, leg curls - complete workout for the outer leg as well as the inner thigh and backend).

    Walk N Tone (w/walk belt) 2000 (2 high-energy miles with lots of walk belt use - for those not using the belt, follow Judy!)

    WATP: 2001
    1 Mile Get Up And Get Started (w/ weighted balls) 2001 (Great 1 mile walk that incorporates the weighted balls for some great upper body work!)

    Muscle Mile One (w/weighted balls) 2001 (Nice solid one mile walk with the weighted balls added for some upper body toning)

    The Morning Mile Plus Abs (w/10 min. abs workout ) 2001 (high energy mile with great firming moves with the weighted balls; short abs workout which includes the basic curl and the reverse curl-simple yet so effective!)

    Walk And Kick 2001(All the walk steps we love PLUS some added kick box moves to spice it up and make this a real fun 2 mile calorie burning workout!)

    Walk And Jog 2001 (A high-energy workout with intervals of walking and intervals of jogging. Not sure if the jogging intervals are for you? Not a problem- follow MaryKay as she stays lower impact with walking- all the while getting a fabulous calorie burning 2 mile workout whether you jog or walk!)

    Yoga Walk 2001 (Great one mile walk followed by some basic, beginner yoga poses)

    Today instead of doing WATP I tried a new video from prevention magazine, it is also a walking workout. Pretty good. 20 minutes of cardio! And then I did the 8 min series, Yoga.

    I do the WATP 2 Mi Version most days. If I get inconsistent with it I notice a HUGE difference in weight loss. I had lost 10 lbs on MFP and then I fell off the bandwagon. Just got back in today and WATP kicked my butt lol.

    sandara :drinker: Just wanted to say thanks SO MUCH for taking time to share all her DVD's I had no idea there are so many out there. WOW

    I purchased mine from a woman selling sets of them NIPon Ebay and she had quite a few (all the same series) and perhaps got a great deal and was purchasing them to make a bit of profit on ebay. Either way the price was far less than I'd seen anywhere else.:wink::flowerforyou:

    Nice work everyone, it looks like you all are doing GREAT. Sorry I have not been on for almost a week, have had a crazy schedule, but I did get in work out 4 out of the last 7 days.

    I hope to get the 2 mile walk in today while my dd is down for her afternoon nap. But I know I will be going to the gym tonight so if I dont I will add some more cardio at the gym.

    Will chat more later and do personals.

    Way to go everyone hope you have a great Tuesday.
