Leslie Sansone: 3 Fast Miles
R**E
Great intermediate workout!
I own many of Leslie's DVDs and I found this to be the most challenging 3 mile workout so far. It's not too much, but just right. She does the usual steps, with the brief addition of a mambo in the second and third miles. Don't let it intimidate you, it's easy! A beginner may not be able to keep up with the pace of this one, but if you're well familiar with Leslie's work, definitely pick up this DVD.The one thing that is annoying with this one is Leslie's cuing. She often announces the next move way ahead of time, and you're like, are you changing or not? A couple of other times, she changes abruptly.There is a timer that comes on every five minutes so you can track your progress. I like that it is not a constant timer, I find that way too distracting, especially on the longer walks.This will definitely be in my regular rotation.

This is one of the best Leslie Videos I have ever done
This is one of the best Leslie Videos I have ever done! I have been consistently using Walk Away the Pounds DVDs for 6 months, and have lost 31 lbs so far. The 3 fast miles is great nonstop fun. It doesn't have any jogging, or boosted walking segments in it, but you're moving so fast you don't really need them. Definitely a good, fast, and productive cardio workout!

Up the 3 mile intensity and some fun new moves!
I have been doing the Leslie Sansone DVD Walk at Home program for over a year now. Her program helps me to be consistent with my walking no matter what the weather is. I use to live in the city and ever since I had moved to the country, I had so many excuses with the terrain that I was going to walk on and the weather in Wisc. being so iffy. I have increased to the 3 mile DVD's but only had one. I was making up my own 3 miles between my 2 mile ones and my one mile DVD's. I want to highly recommend to those of you who have increased your ability to the three mile to get this one!!! It keeps the intensity throughout the whole 3 miles. I feel this has started to make a BIG change in the way I look and fit into my clothes!!! I also LOVE that there are faces of other gals that have been in her previous workouts and you can see they have had BIG changes in their figures!!!! But not only that, it feels more like you have joined them in the studio and it is so fun and relaxed!!! Get this one, you will love it. It has some fun new moves and keeps you sweating the whole time. At 48, I feel so fit and healthy doing these walking workouts AND NO INJURIES!!!!!! THANK YOU LESLIE!!!!!!

Fast and Doable
The pros, fast and the usual uncomplicated routine, no jumping or twisting good for an interim day work out, can be viewed with music only! The cons, her timing is off, the cues are off, the chat never stops, I ended up watching Jo or Mary Kaye who always stay on the beat.

Got Results
True to her word in the video, give her 7 days and you will see some results.I lost 2.5 pounds doing this video for 7 days straight in the mornings. I even ate cake and chips (in moderation).It's fast paced and you will burn calories and it makes you feel good onceyou have accomplished the workout. I have several DVDs of Leslie's and thisone did not disappoint. I highly recommend it.

Yes! Music Only Option
I LOVE this workout. Its fast all the way through and has incorporated some different combinations of moves than most of Leslie's other workouts. Moves are easy to follow but sometimes the queueing is off a bit. I really sweat to this one, and I'm in great shape! I use a pedometer when I'm working out, and this DVD ends up slightly in excess of 5000 steps, which is half of my daily goal, in just slightly more than 45 minutes. Its got a music only option, which is great on something that you watch again and again and again. (And I will be watching it again and again and again.)The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 .... the stretch at the end is very minimal, especially for the calf muscles; really need more stretching since we've been using the muscles pretty heavily all the way through the "walkout". I also don't like Leslie letting Mary lead the class, even for two minutes, although this one works alot better than some of the others that I've seen.

MET MY EXPECTATIONS
I was looking for a walking tape that kept a fast pace for at least 30 minutes....and this did it. I didn't want any other exercise It starts out with warm up and ends with cool down. Leslie talks too much...and the music is not the greatest....but it works for me. One of the best things is that you only need a very small place to do this in. Yes, your heart rate does go up. I use this dvd in my laptop computer when I travel or need to be indoors. I researched a lot to find this and I am glad I found it!!

One of her best!
Fast pace throughout, no "boosting," but you felt like you boosted.

Can't go wrong with Leslie
Hands down, the best fitness instructor in the business in my opinion. I love her energy and enthusiasm, and I really enjoy walking with her - don't look down on in-home walking as I once did - it's a surefire way to get fit and you can ramp up the pace depending on your fitness level.

Great work-out!
I love this video - I am doing 9 miles and will most likely add to it. What I like about it is that I can do as many miles as I want to - it is great and it works!!!
