Leslie Sansone 5-Day Slim Down |
 My favorite Leslie dvd! |
| I have approx. 8-10 Leslie dvd's and this is probably my favorite. I like the slight variations added in (diagonal knee lifts, the arm movements) that don't lose the basics that I am used to, enjoy, and can feel successful with. I like using miles 1 & 4 together, and 2 & 3 together; feels like a great overall workout. There are a couple of spots edited together that lose a step, but that's easy enough to adjust to. And there are a couple of spots where Leslie forgets to give much advance notice on a change, but it's minor. I really love the movements in these miles. My hamstrings got more out of this than with her other dvd's, and I didn't even realize it at the time...way to sneak that in, Leslie! I didn't feel it till the next day, but it was the good kind of sore. I felt great after completing these miles. I think this is a must-have for Leslie fans, or those new to Leslie and working out. - posted by Ruby on 10/20/2009 |

| My Favorite!!! |
| I love this workout! I don't do 1 mile a day. I do the last 4 miles all at once everyday and add dumbbells along the way. I LOVE the fact that Leslie is by herself in the studio without a group. I hope she keeps making videos like this! - posted by Lynn on 9/2/2009 |

| I Love this |
| I have a lot of Leslie but this is by far the most interesting and enjoyable of all. The routines are just a bit different then her usual WATP moves. I don't like having the same cooldown for all routines. I add stretches especially on "arm day". And the blip near the end of "Day 2" threw me the first time but I've adjusted. That said, I think it's a five star from Leslie. I can work as hard and sweat as much as I feel like or just pick the area (arms, legs, abs) I want to concentrate on that day. If you like Leslie or are just getting into exercise give this one a try. - posted by MES on 7/13/2009 |

| One of My Favorites! |
| I have just about every Leslie DVD (and even many of the old VCR tapes)she has and enjoy varying which one I use. I must say though I am hooked on this one and find it's the one I've been doing every day. Love to do the complete five miles - feel that I get a really good workout. Enjoy the variety of moves she has on this one. I use 2 lb weights on Mile 2 focusing on the arms which adds an add'l boost. Keep 'em coming Leslie! - posted by Julie on 7/10/2009 |

| Absolute Favorite! |
| I have done all of Leslie Sansone's Walk Aerobic videos and love her. However, her "5 Day Slim Down" with just her alone is my absolute favorite!!! Because there is less chatting and it is just her alone, I can focus on the moves. The moves are basicly the same as her other videos, but she changes them more frequently...it really keeps you moving! When I do not have time to do all 5 miles, I start my workout at mile 2 and get a great fast paced 4 miles. There is no question I get my very best workout to this video....I sweat up a storm!!! I hope Leslie makes another "alone" workout...I will be the first in line to buy it!!!!!!! - posted by Judy on 6/29/2009 |

| Down 12 Dress Sizes With Leslie's Walks! |
| This was fun and sweaty! Each mile focuses on a different part of the body! It's just Leslie on this one, but it is still effective and enjoyable! I love Leslie Sansone! By using a variety of her dvds, I've been able to go down 12 dress sizes!! I'm in my mid-50s and folks consistently guess my age in my 30s! My resting pulse, blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar are nice and low "now" and I feel great! Make Leslie your personal trainer! It's a fun way to get fit! Thanks, Leslie!!!!! - posted by Donna on 5/7/2009 |

| Slimdown |
| As usual, Leslie delivers nothing but the best in low-impact, motivational, fun workouts on this 5-day slimdown. As someone who has lost over 100 pounds using exclusively Sansone videos, I have found the workouts to be extremely effective, yet still doable when I was so much heavier, too. Leslie gives just the right cues to keep you going and you feel like it's 'no sweat' even when you're kicking, stepping and smiling with the beat! I will never tire of her workouts, and enjoy the new releases that come out---they're always even better than before! - posted by Lisa T. on 3/31/2009 |

| Loved the New Moves in this one! You did it again, Leslie! |
| Well, I came close to swapping/selling this before I even opened it as I have 20+ Leslie DVD's and tapes and wasn't sure this would be all that good. So glad I kept it and did it for the first time today. There is some great 'fresh' music in this one that is soothing at the same time that it is energetic. I really like the 'tweaks' on traditional WATP exercises, ie. lifting the knee rather than tapping in the side steps, and the upper body 'strong arms' move. One-on-one Leslie is great...I think I focused more than ever on the actual workout and focused in on the specific emphasis areas worked in each mile. The 'legs' and 'abs' miles felt particularly great. I've always enjoyed her talks, and her manner again is very warm and encouraging here. Three cheers!!! - posted by Linda on 3/22/2009 |

| A Good One! |
| Yea Leslie! Another hit! I like the moves, each mile has something a little different than the 4 usual steps. As others have noted, less annoying chatter. I only noticed 5 tunes that she uses in other videos. I did find the set a little annoying in that you can see traffic moving in the windows and there some kind of film or something on the windows that's lose and flapping, creating a glare from time to time. Also the scene outside the window changes from bushes to a brick building from time to time. What that's all about, I don't know. But otherwise its good...the set is cheerful. I kind of miss Mary Kay,Carol,Lynn and Jo. Over all, I think it's one of Leslie's best. A great value. Thanks Collage!!! - posted by Barbara on 3/22/2009 |

| Good for my back |
| I loved this dvd. After doing routines with Kathy, the Firm, I had to stop because of my lower back problems. With this routine I am back again. I am feeling better and also my body is changing. Try also the 3 express mile, and the 4 mile advance. Those are challenging. If you want to keep in shape, healthy, with good stamina, and do low impact, these are the dvd for you. - posted by carmen, puerto rico on 3/10/2009 |
