Time graph for Leslie's Fast & Firm: 4 Really Big Miles
An indoor, walking-style fat-burner that builds in intensity. You can start with the first segment and gradually work your way to a higher fitness level (each of the four “miles” gets faster and more challenging). As always, Leslie’s enthusiasm is inspiring and her choreography is easy to follow. The first two segments are classic Walk Aerobics — just four basic moves: marches, kicks, side-steps and step-touches. The third mile speeds it up with gentle jogging and simple grapevines. The final segment uses an optional resistance band to tone your upper body as it boosts the cardio effectiveness. Includes some recognizable vocal hit songs (e.g. “Everybody Dance Now”). A 5-foot resistance band is optional. ©2007. DVD has: Chapter menus, Close captions.

Leslie's Fast & Firm: 4 Really Big Miles

Four Mile Walk Slim
As usual Leslie has an easy to follow video which is not too difficult and does a good job of giving good exercise. - posted by Linda on 8/26/2010
Get This Video!
Terrific workout. I actually look forward to exercising. It's diversified so you don't get bored. I highly recommend this video. - posted by Ruth on 8/9/2010
4 challanging miles
I am 68 and really find this one quite challenging. It is fast and creates sweat also. Great for anyone who has walked 2 or 3 miles. Great video. Buy it - posted by Stuart on 8/5/2010
WOW
Well today was my first 4 mile workout since receiving my DVD and today I learned what humility really means lol. I have been doing the 2 mile walk at home and thought this would be a walk in the park. Very intense and robust. At 68 everything is robust lol but this is some workout. Absolutely excellent. I persevered and made it thru. Folks this one will make you sweat like crazy. The only thing I could find a little disagreeable was the volume of the music. It was to loud for me anyway as I needed to hear her cueing but after a few more weeks I will have it down. BUY IT. This one is really good. - posted by Stu on 7/16/2010

Lost 4cm in three weeks
I'm really pleased with this DVD. I've lost 4cm off my waist in just three weeks. My arms are already feeling much stronger and I'm amazed at how effective the resistance band is. I'm 66 years old and I feel like I'm definitely going to be in the best shape in my life. - posted by Bette on 6/19/2010
My first Sansone video
I chose the Walk at Home series because I am new to exercise, am very out of shape-- I have only 20lbs to lose but most of it is in my legs due to some knee surgery I had 2 years ago. I found this to be exactly the right level of challenge for me and I am able to do the exercises without straining my joints. I noticed that many reviewers of this series dislike Leslie when she is alone, but I actually found her MORE annoying with others in this video. I prefer the videos where she is alone and is giving mostly instructive talks rather than her banter with the other people, as her talk reminds me too much of Sarah Palin. - posted by JC on 5/20/2010

One Of My Faves
So far, this is my favorite Leslie Sansone walking tape. Luv it! I like the classroom setting. I like the other members in the class. They are lively and they look like they are having fun. It's good to see other people who have successfully lost weight by walking. Leslie is her usual bubbly self. She's friendly and seems like such a nice lady. The Firm Band workout at the end is also good. It's amazing how you are keeping your heart rate up, though the moves are easier. When I started this tape, I sweated so much and I had been exercising for years. Now I don't sweat quite as much, but it's a good low-impact workout that's great for burning off a meal when I need to. - posted by Rhonda on 4/10/2010

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.
