Hi , I am getting bored of the elliptical and need a new workout. Yesterday , I found Leslie Sansone's 1 mile walk on Youtube and LOVED IT ! Although , I only burned about 85 calories , it was great. Anyone bought Leslie Sansone's CDs ? Are they worth it ? Would love to see some reviews !

    Yes. I own several. I recommend them to my patients. She is delightful company if you need someone to motivate you.

    I used her 5-mile walk video when I was recovering from an illness. It got me moving, but was low-intensity and not too tiring. Leslie is really friendly and approachable! I like her workouts!

    This woman has literally saved my life. When I was obese there weren't many workouts I could do. Even a 1/2 mile was a challenge, but I kept going and she helped me to lose and keep off 80+ pounds.

    Now I'm doing 4 - 5 miles with her everyday this month with ease (I'm in a challenge).

    Per mile there's not much of a calorie burn, but after 3+ miles they do add up. And I find her workouts don't stress me out, make me tired or sore (so I can do other workouts too) and they don't make me hungry.

    If you can handle her cheerfulness and chatter I say they are worth it!

    I feel the same ! Like I usually feel exhausted and hungry after some cardio workouts and am too tired to strength train , but her workout left me energized and not hungry at all .

    I used her DVDs years ago. My dog made it a challenge as she kept biting my feet to make me stop. It was unapproved unauthorized activity in her mind. Lol. Great workout but after I learned the routines I had to turn the sound off and have my stereo going at the same time...the chatter got to me! Lol

    Check your local library. Mine has a bunch of DVDs of hers. You could get a different one each week and change it up. I started with her DVDs and then gifted them to my Mom when I moved on to something else.

    Exactly! I used to think that you had to do intense exercise to see results, but that's not true. Sure it may take longer, but I wasn't in pain or dread working out like some of the others I tried so that made me want to continue.

    LOL! When I first got my puppy he used to think it was play time whenever I used these workouts. I did them so much that he eventually got bored. lol

    Great point about the library! My local one has a lot and I've even requested several. It takes weeks to get, but it's great being able to use the whole dvd before buying.
