Hey everyone! Check in with your walking workouts here. Anything Leslie Sansone.

Hello friends! Cannot believe it is April already!

Had a nice weekend here and we actually got a bit of rain! Got going for the week this morning with the Walk Slim 4 Fast Miles! Sweaty!!

Hi Annie,
Have you had success with these DVDs? I recently had spinal/neck surgery. My neurosurgeon has forbidden me to lift any weight over 10 lbs. So I am looking for a fat burning, low impact exercise.

Wow!!! 2 mi without weights.

Yayyy im glad you made this post! Ive been doing Leslie Sansone walks every day and i LOVE them! Ill be updating with my work outs for this month.

Wii PT Medium Upper Body: 2 sets of 11 exercises (30 minutes)
Step Aerobics on 6 inch step (17 minutes)

OOH! Look at all the new friends! So glad to see you all here.

Tubo, looks like you are doing it right, girl. Work your way back up and don't overdo!

Mantuagirl, yes, I have had great success with these workouts. I've had a fusion of my cervical spine and a lower back surgery, too. Mine were long ago, but I am VERY careful with my neck. None of Leslies videos use more than 3 pound weights, at least the ones that I have. If you've been cleared for low-impact workouts, I HIGHLY suggest any of her DVDs. Even the ones where she pumps up the action to hight impact for a short while are always introduced with the option to stay low impact. I have to stay low impact for my knees. You'll still get a great workout, though.

Hi Carol!!

Atarxia, welcome!!

Thank you! Oh and a lil something I wanted to share with the Leslie Sansone fans.....you can find many of the work outs/walks for FREE on Youtube!!! I watch all of mine via Youtube and there's tons of them all the way from the 1 mile walk to the 5 mile

Thanks for the response Annie. My mobility will continued to be limited for some time so these DVD’s may be invaluable. Best of luck with your knees.

I think I figured out my hip!!! I was fine for the last few days, then today I did the 5 mile walk dvd with the 2 minutes boosts after each mile and as soon as I started jogging my hip started hurting so bad. I think it is the jogging impact on it that is making it hurt so much. I didn't jog after I realized it was making it hurt but by then the damage was done for today at least. Next time I won't jog at all and see if it is better, if it doesn't hurt then I have figured out the mystery of the hurting hip, lol, I feel like Nancy Drew.

This is basically why I don't do the high impact. I bought the newest dvd for abs but there is a lot of jumping in it. I'll be 64 Sun. and I don't do well with jumps anymore.

3 Mile Weight Loss Walk this morning with 2# weights!
