The Walk Diet

Leslie Sansone
Year Released: 2004

Categories: Walking Aerobics


This is the dvd that was sold in Walmart under the title Muscle Mile One, but is actually the 1 Mile Walk Diet DVD. I have a lot of Leslie DVDs and this one is very easy and beginnerish in comparison. The set looks like a plain room with wooden floors. The background people are not teachers from her studio, but are regular people who I would guess are on her walk diet program.
She does not use any gadgets - no walk away weights, bands, etc. She only uses her 4 basic steps - walking, side steps, knee-ups and kicks (she doesn't even do kickbacks in this one!) She occasionally adds an upper body move with her arms, but not a lot of that either. The pace is not brisk (like in the power series) and is probably comparable to her original WATP 1 mile walk pace (although in that one she uses weights.)
If you want a good intro to Leslie or just want an easy walk for those days when you don't feel up to working out, this fits the bill. It's only about 17 minutes, and I will use it on as a warmup on those early mornings when I'm not quite awake, but want to work out.

Instructor Comments:
Leslie is her usual nice, chatty self!
