Yes, please do Fran. I'm not going to rush out to the post office quite yet. I'll try a couple of the workouts to be sure I don't feel differently.

Donna My package will probably come Monday - so Tuesday I will give it a go. I completely understand if not liking it to return it & get a refund. I walk almost everyday so even if these a quirky I will keep unless something is horrendous! Walking is my only cardio I care to do & with no TM now & not walking for exercise outside Leslie is my go to girl. I am hoping they are enjoyable. I love her All Time Favorites one & it is my favorite Leslie so far. What ever it is I will give everyone my honest opinion but everyone keep in mind my of walking with Leslie!

Hi,

Donna - I'm sorry it was a disappointment - hate when that happens. I don't like that they won't play in a computer - I do most of my workouts w/ my laptop - it just works better in my space. Plus it is nice for travel or if you have guests or something and need to workout in a different location of the house.

Fran - eager to hear your thoughts when you get your kit!

Donna

Disc 1 - Miracle Mile 1

I watched the walk segment in its entirety. The music wasn't bad on this walk. It ran for approximately 15 1/2 minutes. There was not an actual cool down and no actual stretch. There is a timer after the warm-up is completed. With approximately 5 minutes to go Leslie does her "HIIT" training or boosted walking (jogging) for about 25 second intervals. After the intervals she walks over to what I call a clothing tree stand and grabs the band. This would be the point to start walking slower and cool down. She does a few exercises with the band while walking.

Like you I use Leslie almost exclusively for cardio and I do purchase everything she releases. If I can get a decent mile from each disc I may keep the kit. I really wanted the gloves. If I were to return the kit they don't have a way to break down the cost of the gloves. By the time I pay the shipping cost to return, order the gloves with the shipping charge I won't gain much of a credit.

I watched part of disc 2 again. I was wrong, I do see some familiar faces from the newer sets. Camille looks very different. Very short hair and is quite slim.

Donna - I had no idea that some DVDs won't play in a computer. I've had the opposite happen - when a disc won't play in the DVD player but will play on the computer.

Her sneakers were "toned down" after disc 1!

I see you live in my area. It is hard to walk outdoors right now! I went out at 6:00 a.m. for my dogs, and it was already 90 degrees.

I have had that happen, too! I have some Kathy Smith workouts that will only play on my computer.

I hope you can find a way to keep the kit and the gloves. Maybe you could trade or sell some of the DVDs you don't like?
