I have had Leslie Sansone's 3 Mile Power Walk / Power Firm for a while now; I bought it for $9.97 at Wal-Mart just because it was such a good buy. I haven't used it much; I tend to favor more intense things.
Well, my parents are both avid walkers, and the weather has been so bitterly cold here in New England this week that my Mom was complaining she couldn't get out for her walk (my Dad, I think, is part polar bear: he'll go for his walk no matter
what it's doing outside
). She was feeling tired and grouchy because she was missing her only form of daily exercise.
Well, I gave her my Leslie DVD to use in her house on those cold days and she has been
loving it! She says that while she has been happy walking a mile a day, Leslie makes her want to progress to go further.
It sounds silly but I feel so great about having helped my mom overcome a fitness obstacle (the weather), plus set a new fitness goal. Obviously, I am glad she's made a commitment to any exercise at all; it'll keep her healthy and make her stronger and more fit. She is a beautiful, vibrant, young 63 years old and it makes me so happy to see her enjoy fitness and exercise.
