Get started walking at home with this complete workout by Leslie Sansone. Warm up followed by workout then cool down recovery ending with stretching.

Here is what one of her viewers had to say: Leslie is amazing and her walking at home workouts are very effective. I started the 1 mile for a few weeks and then increased it by doing 3 miles. I still enjoy the 1 mile at night, though. Then I discovered that she had a 5 mile walk with a 2 minute boost. Now that was quite the workout! So far, I’ve lost 13 pounds in a month! Now just 25 more to go!
