Time graph for Leslie Sansone's Advanced 5-Mile Walk
Lots of options — do it all for a truly challenging intermediate/advanced-level workout. Or do one of the pre-programmed shorter workouts for an easier Walk Aerobics session. Either way, you’ll get Leslie’s high-energy enthusiasm and super-easy-to-follow moves (basic walks, marches and kicks, never any fancy choreography or plyometric moves). Each segment features a distinct technique. Two sections use a very fast pace to generate intensity — “power walking” and “walking like a runner” (a 10-minute mile). The other three segments incorporate upper-body toning within the aerobics — each section with a different resistance device: her Walk & Tone Belt, light weights or a “stretchy band,” however one person uses no equipment at all. DVD has three easier options -- about 45 minutes each -- they use just one piece of equipment. To do all the segments, it requires 1 to 3 lb. weights, a 6-foot resistance band and a Walk & Tone Belt. ©2005. DVD has: Chapter menus.

Leslie Sansone's Advanced 5-Mile Walk

Great!!!!
This is such a great workout. Because of the versatility I was able to take this on my vacation and had my choice of what session I wanted for the day. Good job Leslie!!!! - posted by Joyce on 10/5/2008

Disapppointed
This is my first disappointment with a Leslie Sansone exercise dvd. You can't hear the music, the audio is terrrible I just kept watching the people to see how fast they were going. I liked the fact that I was using the band, the weights and the waistbelt but so disappointed that I couldn't get into it because I couldn't hear the music. - posted by Julie on 7/30/2008
The Best So Far!
I began using Sansone's dvd's last year. I was dubious that something that seemed so easy could work. Man, was I wrong! Her dvd's really helped me shed 25 pounds. But, they began to lose their challenge so this dvd was welcome. While the cover of mine doesn't match the picture here, I played a clip and it's the same. I like being able to choose either the full 60 minutes + or do shorter 33 minute segments. I hope she does more like this - using a variety of formats and to really rev up the intensity for those of us who've been doing her walking programs for a while. I've tried other walking dvd's but so far, no one can hold a candle in terms of personality and motivation. - posted by Jan on 5/1/2008
Love it!!
I have many of Leslies workout videos and love most of them. I started years ago with the beginner level and worked my way up. I am 50 now and do not like the high impact like I used to and that is why I like hers. I see results when I use her videos. I really liked this video because of the versitility of it. I love her talking as it does not get boring and she is very motivating. Way to go Les!!!! - posted by Charlotte on 4/4/2008
Ok, but it's not really advanced...
I didn't really like this tape. I was looking for something advanced and based on some of her four mile tapes, I thought five miles would really kick my butt! But I was wrong. She seems to compensate for the extra mile by making it very slow and boring (no grapevines, walk walk walk and tap, no mambos, no jog and kick, just the basics). You can barely hear the music and the pace is so slow it doesn't get your heart rate up. You might as well just do one of her three mile tapes twice to save money and get a better workout. The Fast and Firm 4 Really Big Miles is her best yet and the one that really gets your heart rate up and burns lots of calories - I do the first mile twice if I want five miles. This isn't bad, but more of a beginner/intermediate workout. - posted by Laura on 3/18/2008
One of my favorite Leslie Sansone workouts
I didn't buy this "Advanced 5 Mile" for the longest time because I didn't care for the clips, so it's a nice surprise to discover that this has become one of my very favorite Leslie Sansone workouts (along with Walk Strong). Please note that I never use Leslie Sansone as my primary workouts because I need lots more intensity, so I find it works to do my advanced exercise in the morning and maybe tack on a Leslie Walk for 30 minutes or so in the evening as supplement.... The great thing about "Advanced 5 Miles" is that the segments are varied, so the workout went by quickly and the endorphins were popping by the 5-mile mark! I'm surprised I had no problem doing this entire 5 miles, because usually I start getting bored with a Leslie workout by the 2 mile mark. But this one was different. I did all 5 miles and felt great at the end. Leslie has such a positive presence! A keeper!! - posted by Michelle on 2/13/2008
ok
I like the walking workouts because they are really simple, but they can get pretty boring after awhile. I've done the full 5 miles a few times, but my feet start to feel a little numb after stomping on the floor for so long. I'll use this one when I don't have a lot of energy, but only the 3 mile workout. - posted by Laura on 1/31/2008
Unsure
I have about 30 of Leslie's videos/DVD's. I did this one this morning and it is my least favorite.Her best in my opinion areThe 3 mile Powerwalk, 2 mile walk away the pounds for abs.1 mile super challenge for abs,Walk away the stess, Walk Strong, and the 3 mile weightloss walk w/ Mary Kay leading the second mile.This 5 mile is long but she doesn't use the boosters that much so I had to increase the intensity on each. The set is too crowded, sometimes less is best. And it did not keep my heart rate up. I have all of the boosters in fact I have DA powerwalking system instead of the belt.I will use this DVD but it won't beoften in my rotation. - posted by MMWin on 1/29/2008
What a walk!
I really like this DVD because it has variety. You use weights, bands and a walk belt. I don't have a walk belt, but I have rubber tubing with handles on each end, so I use that. It is a great workout, and you walk pretty fast in 2 of the segments. It is nice to see Leslie, Joanne and Linda so trim after all these years. You will not be disappointed in this one! - posted by Judy on 1/27/2008

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.

Chapter menus
X
You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Floor aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
