    Just had my first go at the 3 mile walk and loved it. Thank you again for the information. I definitely will make this a part of my exercise routine :-)

    thanks for your reply, I'll log it as low impact aerobics in future - I agree, I make it more challenging myself by jogging instead of marching :-D"

    Lots of ways to bump up Leslie. If I use light handweights (or weighted gloves) I tend to use my upper body more. More arm movements (especially over head) increase my heart rate a bit.

    I addition to jogging ....kicks & kickbacks can be "plyo" or hopping type moves. Leslie's 4 Mile Power Walk has lots of higher impact moves. http://www.collagevideo.com/workout-video/leslie-sansones-just-walk-4-mile-power-walk-6190

    A weighted vest would help to burn more calories (ankle weights ??? these seem a little scary).

    Also, a mini-trampoline can help someone who needs to stay low impact jog during the "boosts."

    I do her 51 minute 3 mile walk with a resistance band. I try to up my burn by doing squats instead of her basic side steps and I usually jog in place rather than walk. All in all--it's pretty decent if not just a tad boring. I log it as low-impact aerobics. Definitely worth doing.

    She mentioned at a fitness conference that the 3 mile 46 min walk /aerobic exercise burns about 389 calories.

    This depends on your personal stats. Going with low impact aerobics should give you a close estimate.

    I'm pretty new to the forums. What does it mean when you reply with "bump?"

    can someone explain what this is? do you walk at home?

    Low impact aerobics .... no choreography..... fast music keep you moving to the beat.

    Essentially you march in place for awhile, then switch to side steps for awhile, then switch to kicks ....... you keep changing up the moves to keep it interesting. Then you add some arms movements. For someone who loves choreography or loves to dance .... you likely won't like it. I've got 2 left feet & plenty of excuses not to walk outdoors .... this is a godsend for me.

    Lots of DVDs (Target, Wal-Mart, etc) ... here's a clip

    Basically, it's used if not many people have replied to the thread and it has fallen to page 2, 3+ in the forum. People will reply with merely "bump" to literally "bump it up" to the top of the list again in an effort to get more responses/discussion.

    Low impact aerobics works best I think. Walking works too, but during the warm-up & cool down you are walking slower than 3.5-4 miles per hour.

    I use hand weights on the 1 and 2 miles ones when I'm short on time and as per my HRM the 2 miles with hand weights burns about 350 for me.

    I like her Walk Slim dvd. It takes you on a 5 mile walk with 2 miles using resistance bands. You can pick and choose what mile or miles you want to do it. I LOVE IT!

    I love her DVD that offers 5 different walks, ranging from 1 mile to 5 miles. 2 of them are using bands. They are fantastic! I felt energized and noticed a difference in my core almost immediately! And her DVDs are not very spendy - right around $10.00
