Time graph for Tracey Staehle's Walking Strong

A straight-forward aero/tone interval workout with lots of variety -- very 30 to 60 seconds, Tracey changes the tempo, exercise or incline. You’ll rotate among three different workout techniques. Some segments are all-cardio; these are done a varying speeds (up "hills" and down "hills"). Other sections combine upper-body toning within the aerobics (e.g. dumbbell bicep curls as you walk). These segments are alternated with complementary lower-body-with-cardio sections (e.g. fast-paced squats and lunges on the treadmill). Tracey is supportive and friendly (not “hyper”). Requires 2 to 5 lb. dumbbells and a power-incline treadmill. ©2008. (59 min.).

Tracey Staehle's Walking Strong
Great Workout Tracey!
I am not one to turn on the treadmill and start walking to the nightly news. I need to be challenged and that is exactly what Tracey's video does. I have been working out with exercise videos for over thirty years and this is one of the best for all fitness levels. Being over 50 I am concentrating on toning, flexibility & cardio and this video allows me to work on all of those. I love the hill climbs, weight segments and especially the lunges and squats. Don't let the lunges and squats on a treadmill scare you, once you find the right speed for you, enjoy the way they make you feel. I do find that I need to stretch a little more after I am done with this workout, but I can't wait to try Tracey's new treadmill workout. - posted by Barbara on 3/7/2010

Fun workout.
This is a fun workout, and challenging at the same time. Great for days when you don't want to think, just sweat. Time went by really fast. I am not a big fan of the side squats, I almost fell off, so I stuck with the front lunges only. - posted by Eileen on 10/31/2009

WOW
Never did I think I could ever get a great workout on a boring old treadmill. This workout rocked my world. I was even sore the next day. Love the continuous changes, the fun banter and the variety of moves. Who would have thunk you could have so much fun walking on a treadmill? - posted by Tammy on 1/13/2009

I Love It!
My treadmill has become my new best friend with this workout. It makes the time go faster and the workout more fun. My only complaint is the lunges. If you set your speed too fast, you don't get a good lunge. Too slow and the treadmill belt complains! Otherwise, I work up a good sweat. - posted by DJ on 12/27/2008

Makes time fly
I love, love, love this workout. I couldn't believe how fast time went by! I think it's because you are constantly challening yourself by switching from hills, upper body, lunges, etc. I agree with the previous reviewer that a cool down is missing. As the crew stretched, I took three minutes to bring down my heart rate by walking as I gradually decreased speed. I didn't knock off a star because the rest was so fanastic that I can forgive the cooldown. - posted by Brynn on 7/24/2008

Great workout but where's the cooldown?
I agree with everyone. This is a really fun challenging workout. I usually run and I actually did the intermediate version and my heart rate was at 85 percent. That's why after the last hill I expected a cooldown to get my heart rate down. Not go immediately into a stretch. I walked at 2.5 mph during the stretching portion and did my own stretch during the bloopers and Jill's testimonial - posted by jf on 4/20/2008

My New Favorite
Any level of exerciser can do this workout and feel great. I loved it so much I bought it for my mom and even she can do it. Even advanced exercisers will feel the challenge. This workout does work the entire body and give you a wonderful cardio workout. I feel something new every time I do it. All around excellent. - posted by Annette on 3/26/2008

GREAT WORKOUT!!!
I'm another treadmill runner that LOVES this workout! The elevation makes it intense. The walking lunges are my favorite part! Add in the upper body weight work and you've got the perfect little workout! The time just flys on by! Before you know it your a sweating mess and it's time for the cool-down! Don't let the intermediate put off advanced runners! (and walkers/beginners you can modify!) I HIGHLY recommend this workout for anyone who has a treadmill! - posted by linda on 3/13/2008

Fabulous
I really felt challenged during this workout. I wasn't expecting to and boy was I wrong. The workout flew by and was everything I read it would be. It made me push myself like I have never pushed myself before. I enjoyed the banter between Tracey & her sister, it reminded me of me & my sister. It is a tough yet fun workout in less than one hour. Highly recommend you walk strong today! - posted by Chrissey on 3/11/2008

Amazing
I did this workout yesterday. Now I like the treadmill more than before. It starts with a warm-up and then hill up, down, hill up, down. It is so good for the rear part (glutes and hamstrings). I really felt it after a few minutes. I can really recommend this DVD. It is amazing! - posted by Daniela on 2/29/2008

Your review will appear on this site within 2-3 days as long as it fits our guidelines. We do NOT post reviews that:

Use profanity, obscenities or are just plain mean-spirited.
Are single word critiques -- readers need to know why you liked or didn't like the workout.
Include non-Collage phone numbers, addresses, URLs, or pricing information.
Are written in all-caps -- it just seems like screaming.
Are personal attacks on the instructor or on other video reviewers (i.e. posts that do not primarily discuss the content of this video).

Note: Please do the video a few times before you write a review so you're sure about your long-term opinion. And try to be specific about what you liked, or didn't. For example on a video, "Hard to follow" might mean you thought the video was poorly cued. Or it might just mean that it has complex choreography.

Also, it's helpful to give a little information about yourself (e.g. your fitness level, style preferences, age). It will help others better understand your comments.

Reading a Time Graph

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.

Level

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

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

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

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.

Specialty: Treadmill

Videos especially designed for treadmills.
