Aerobics for Dummies

I just finished doing “2 miles” of Leslie Sansone’s Walk Away the Pounds Express 4 mile Superchallenge. I bought this tape shortly after Charis was born, and I did the 4 miles at least 3 times a week for about 6 weeks back then. It really didn’t help me lose much weight, but I did feel pretty good doing it. I used to call it “aerobics for dummies” because you obviously get a good workout, but the steps are simple variations of walking. I always struggled with other aerobics videos because the moves were too complicated for my poorly coordinated body (and even in my 18 months of thinness, I was still not coordinated).

I was reading a book by Leslie Sansone at Barnes and Noble today, and it inspired me to give the program another try. I am going to try to do this 3 times a week along with my twice a week walking with a friend. Here’s hoping it helps.

  1. Greetings from Kansas–I just wanted to say that I love Leslie Sansone’s workouts. In our marriage, my husband buys CDs and I buy workout videos. That’s just how it works. I have a whole shelf full in our entertainment center. And I actually use them! 🙂 If you enjoy workout videos, you might check out collagevideo.com. It has a million (OK, hundreds) of workout videos for every level. I am following with interest your weight loss pursuits. Forge ahead!
