Movie Reviews of Get Moving - Walking for Weight LossMovie Review: Excellent varied workout Summary: 5 Stars
I have been doing Leslie Sansone walking DVDs for a few months now. I've begun to get bored with hers so I'm branching out to other forms of aerobic fitness. I found this DVD, which I love already.
It is 40 minutes long, divided into 4, 10 minute chapters. The first three chapters are cardio. Chapter 1 is the simplest and lowest intensity--it is the closest to Leslie's workouts. 2 and 3 are harder. Each of the three workouts is self-contained. They have a short warm-up at the beginning, and some lower body work (squats/lunges) at the end. The last 10 minute segment is a yoga-based stretch. Personally I like to do all four segments together for an excellent workout, but you can always just pick on or two if you're pressed for time. The three workouts are all different, and use different moves/combinations. So even if I do them all together, I feel like there is enough variety to keep me from getting bored. Breaking the workout up into 10 minute segments makes the time seem to fly by.
The DVD was filmed in a gorgeous outdoor garden. It features three exercisers. The instructor, Madeleine Lewis, does intermediate versions of the exercises. Another exerciser does easier versions, and a third exerciser does the most intense versions. She hops and jogs through a lot of the workout. What I like about the instructor is she isn't babbling constantly like Leslie Sansone. She talks, but spends that time cuing you on how to move your body. One warning is that the choreography is a bit more complex than Walk Away the Pounds. There is less walking and more moving around in different ways. I didn't find it difficult at all, but a total beginner might want to start with the less intense WATP DVDs.
