I was impressed with Leslie Sansone's professional approach to Pilates. I had just finished her 3-mile walk and was thinking about finishing my workout routine with a Pilates DVD. Fortunately, Leslie spends time explaining each exercise so I had a bit of time to cool down. However, once I started the actual workout, it was definitely filled with calorie burning exercises.
While she focuses on "just the basics" you really do get a great workout. You start with "the hundred" and progress to the roll-up, leg circles and simple leg stretch. The last exercise is the "plank" which could have flowed into some push-ups, but trying to hold your body in the plank position for even 10 seconds can be a good challenge depending on your fitness level.
If you are new to Pilates, this might be one of the best ways to get started besides the Winsor Pilates workouts. If you have been doing Pilates for a few years, this might work as a quick refresher course and the swimming exercise in this DVD is pretty powerful.
I actually think Leslie should make more workouts like this one because she really excels at the professional approach. A lot of her walk videos are on the extremely joyful side and to actually watch her teaching in such a serene style made me more aware of all the beauty she has to offer the world. I've lost 11 ¾ inches since starting her Walk Workouts and I can say that I had struggled to lose inches before starting her walking program. So, I'm very pleased she is branching out to new areas and hope she continues to make highly professional workouts and I hope she does a few more walk workouts because I need MORE!
To make this workout super efficient, try one of Leslie's walking workouts and you will find that you really do need that couch after all. :) I love it when I can complete two workout videos/DVDs and I can feel that I accomplished a great deal in under two hours. Thank you LESLIE!
