Walk Yourself Fit with Chris Freytag

This new title in Prevention magazine's acclaimed fitness series proves that encourages viewers to work towards a healthy body literally one step at a time. Fitness diva Chris Freytag starts off with a warm-up segment (including lunges and side taps) before launching into three types of walking routines: “The Accelerated Workout” (one mile), offering a steady combination of fast and slow walking styles; “The Body-Shaping Workout” (one mile), which also incorporates toning exercises and body shaping; and “The Cardio Workout” (one-and-a-half miles), designed to increase the heart-rate and burn fat with continuous power walking. DVD extras include tips from Freytag on foot pain, buying proper walking shoes, and correct walking technique. A bonus CD features over 70 minutes of music to walk by, which will help to maintain a steady pace on the road. Recommended.
