Hey Guys
I apologize if this is a repeat question but I did use the search feature and could not really find an answer...
I am just trying to figure out how to input Leslie Sansones 2-Mile Walking Workout.
Now, I do not have the "bands" but I used 2 cans of corn thru the entire video and also did a much peppi-er walk...it was more like a jog in place... at first guess I figured "moderate" aeorbics for the 20 minutes then low aerobic for the 5 before and after minutes of cooldown, for the less intense walking.
This is tricky as I do not want to over calculate and allow myself more calories then I earned thus defeating the purpose of eating back what I burned and not going over calories but at the same time to under calculate will result in not eating enough of the calories vs what I burned..... I am trying to be REALLY good about staying within allotted calories.
Dont want to disappoint my fellow smurfs :happy:
Unfortunately, I do not have HRM yet so I am trying to "guess" as closely as possible
I guess what I am asking is, do any of you do the same workout using more of a jog in place approach...and if so, would you consider that moderate intensity aerobics or still light????
Thank You all so very much for your patience with me as I am still learning and need a bit of help every now and again....so far your responses to my questions have been exhilarating and full of knowledge and motivation!
Cheers!

I typically do the 3 or 4 mile walks, but I put them in as "walking" and choose the pace that seems most appropriate, i.e. very slow, brisk, jog, etc. the resistance bands don't add much calorie burn wise, so I would just put it in as jogging or very brisk walking. Definitely get the bands though as they are AWESOME! you can find them on Ebay or even at Wal-Mart...they aren't that expensive, and you can keep the band in your purse and do it while you're at work (well depending on where you work I guess) or in your car or pretty much anywhere! I love Leslie Sansone and her resistance bands...wait til you get to the Walk Away the Pounds Express 3 Mile walk...the resistance band part there is REALLY good0

I do anywhere from the two to the four mile workout DVD's. They are normally 15 minute miles overall workouts so I put them in as walking.0
