Rating: - Excellent Walking Workout!
I received this DVD as a "gift" with my new subscription to prevention magazine. I assumed it was not going to be challenging because it was "free". Well, I am very pleased to say that I was wrong. I am unfamiliar with the instructor: Chris Freytag. However, I found her to be a very good instructor with great rhythm. She was motivating throughout the entire DVD and never became unnecessarily annoying.
There are three workouts included on the DVD each running about 15 min:
1. Walking workout which is the least challenging of all three but still gets you moving. This consists of general walking, leg lifts and side steps. She does variations however, which I was unfamiliar with.
2. The accelerated walking workout is the second workout. You walk a mile doing 4 segments. Each segment consists of three minutes of power walking and one minute of accelerated burn.
3. The body sculpting workout which follows the same pattern as the accelerated workout except instead of the minute burnout there is a minute of weight lifting.
I would suggest this video to anyone of any size and fitness level. Even if you are in great shape this is still an excellent workout for a light day. This video is challenging and fun. It sometimes even feels like a dance video. I am very pleased and will add it into my at home rotation.
