Can anyone recommend an easy easy walking DVD (no floor exercises) for me who is 78 years old, out of shape, very overweight, and who gets winded easily? I have the "Jessica Smith Walk on, 5 Fat burning Miles" DVD and can do about 8 minutes and have to stop. TIA

Leslie Sansome has a series of walking videos. They go from 1 mile to 4 miles in the set I have. They are very simple, basically walking, side step, high knees and kicks. They are a good workout. If you can't do the whole video, just do what you can do or slow down and move as best you can. With repetition, you'll eventually be able to do the whole thing.6

Do you need dvd? Youtube has lots of walking videos. Some of my go-to's are Jessica Smith, Leslie Sansone, Reps to the Rhythm, and Jenny Ford. Pahla B also has a channel aimed at women over 50.4

TY everyone for your comments. YouTube won't work because of where my computer/monitor are located. I have to watch a DVD on the TV.1

I know myself that walking outside is an absolute chore with my balance issue. The days when I could just take off and go geocaching with my family are long gone.

Beginner Leslie Sansone - Start! Walking at Home 1 Mile or Leslie Sansone for Seniors.
There are other instructors too. There is a Weight Watchers Walking DVD with Ellen Barrett that is for beginners. Look for Weight Watchers Walking Kit. This is really well done if you can find it.
Stott Pilates makes a couple walking DVDs too. The shortest one is called Walk on to Total Fitness. The music is a nice change from the usual.
Debbie Rocker Walking for Weight Loss is another one. Debbie is rather dry, but the outdoor scenery is beautiful. If Leslie Sansone foot patterns are challenge for balance, or whatever, this will be a good option. Debbie Rocker DVDs are even more basic than Leslie.1 -
Jenny Ford has a walk across america dvd collection0
