 Leslie Sansone: 40-Plus Walk Aerobics
ASIN: 6301560922
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: Walk Aerobics is for fun and fitness
Comments: Purchasing Leslie Sansone's Walk Aerobics 40-Plus Workout has been one of the best decisions I have made. It's refreshing and encouraging to see that those participating on the video are of different shapes and sizes, and different levels of fitness, instead of 'body beautiful'. The exercises are easy to perform and at 30-35 minutes in length the workout is not too long. Being overweight, over 50 and out of condition, I am happy to find a workout that I can actually perform comfortably and feel enervated afterwards, and now motivated to exercise daily. I have now purchased several other videos in the series. I recommend this video to anyone who is not interested or does not have the time to go to the gym, doesn't want to pound the pavements and wants an easy-to-perform exercise routine that will greatly improve one's overall fitness level, have fun and burn calories at the same time.

 Walk Aerobics for Seniors - Live at the Club

Summary: You don't have to be old to do this one!
Comments: After purchasing many of her tapes, I found they are basic and clear cut, so you can be any age to do this one, especially if you are a bit tired and want to take it a bit easier - you can on this one. Her tapes are not hard -- she uses simple steps -- you cannot fall or hurt yourself - no twisting or turning, etc. You simply walk in place, use some simple arm movements, simple back and forth steps, side steps, etc. She is highly motivating and very down to earth, and I personally feel you can be any age, from a child to a older adult, to do her tapes. Just purchase them and enjoy!

Summary: The only Leslie Sansone "Walk Away" tape I haven't cared for
Comments: There were two things about this video I didn't care for--and one of them was my own fault. I didn't notice the video was from 1989, with all the poodle hairdos and glittery workout clothes and leggings! I found it very distracting (but I giggled a lot, not something I often do during exercise videos so maybe that's really a plus...!)
But I found the low audio and video production values of this tape much more distracting. I believe it's one of her earliest videos, which might account for it. The others I've bought and used (I have at least 12) are far above this both in production and professionalism of Leslie's instruction. Very grainy video and it was often hard to hear the music. And as anyone who's followed Leslie's walking tapes knows, she IS perky and sometimes runs off on a topic with all sincerity, while we're all sweating away at our 24th repetition until she collects herself! Personally I don't have a problem with the perkiness and I'm advanced enough that the moves aren't much of a problem but occasionally I find myself talking to the TV saying, "Come ON, Les, get on to something else!"
I really liked that the folks in the video were actual students of all shapes and sizes, and, yes, a few men! from her classes. The set was not conducive to clarity of audio, though, and seemed pretty tight since it was so chock-full of "regular folks" doing the exercising.
Overall, I love her tapes, but get some newer ones with better production values and fewer people, I find those much easier to follow.

Summary: I have never had to look elsewhere for an excercise video.
Comments: Leslie is the first person I get to deal with every morning, and she always puts me in a great mood, and the workout is just enough to get you in a sweat, but feeling refreshed!I have had this tape since '87, and have worn out two copies!

Summary: all of the Leslie Sansone Walk Aerobic Tapes
Comments: I started using the over 40's video when I had a leg operation and had to walk every day. Although I am not over 40 I was very unfit. I progressed to Walk Aerobics, Advanced Walk Aerobics and the Fat Burner Workout. I have gone from being totally exhausted at the end of every workout to being energised and able to do another workout with weights, I am able to climb stairs and have lost weight. The Walk Aerobics tapes are superior to others because they are simple, effective and can be done in a small area
