I do the Leslie Sansone " walk away the Pounds" on rainy days or days that I can't get outside and walk.. Its a little more vigurous than just walking.... Any ideas? Thanks again!

    If you search on 'walking' there are several different choices....different paces, etc., could you choose one of those?

    I'm doing the same thing and I call it low impact cardio. Right now I can just do the 1 mile mark, it kicks my butt :wink:

    I do a similar dvd by denise austin and I log it under general aerobics...b/c it feels more like light aerobics than walking to me. I also feel that those dvds keep you moving at a faster pace than you walking on your own outside where your pace and stride can vary. Hope this helps!

    Maybe a faster pace walk then you normally do? Like if you normally log a 3 mph walk log a 4 mph walk. Sorry I have never done the program, but that's about all I can think of.

    Depending on how intense it is I would say log it under either high or low intensities work out.

    On the video I use, she does a mile in 12 min. that would be a 5mph walking, right?

    Ok.. I did the tape and in it she mentions " this is why its called aerobics" and " this pace is a speed of 5 mph" So i would guess that either one of them would work.. THANKS again e1!
