Total dissapointment - Reviewed on 2009-01-03

I felt the music was unpleasant. The tips were too few, too far between, and too simple.

I didn't like it even enough to pass it on the a friend who might try it and like it better than I did. I took it to the used book store after the first week.

Well, Oprah is a powerful salesperson and I saw this when she had Dr. Oz on her show. The CD's arrived and I was excited to give them a try. I really wanted to like them!

Yes, there are two CD's: a beginning, & an advanced CD. But I was anticipating more coaching, more chatting to me about health tips/issues while I walked, and instead had more 'elevator'-type music than I wanted. I like 'elevator' music if it's from popular songs, but this was a general type of music :( BORING! The ONE thing I LOVED was that the voice encouraged me to hang in there, and at the 1/2 way mark/time, it actually said "You're HALF-WAY through the walk! Good for you!" I like knowing when I'm half-way :) But since I take the same walk route, I began to mentally mark the spot where I was half way, so no need to hear it again except to gage if I was faster/slower than the previous day.

I actually walked faster and stepped up my mood as well listening to: The Beatles/1962-1966! The songs are fast and slow mixed so you're naturally adjusting your walk rate. I just put the CD player (I know, totally 'old school'!) on 'repeat' as the side finishes before 30 minutes are up :)

Great music and motivational! I'm just starting to work out again after 3 years off, it gives me that push and incentive to achieve.
Not worth the money - YOU on a walk - Reviewed on 2008-07-28

YOU on a Walk CD was not at all motivational. I felt like I was riding on an elevator the entire time -- not energizing for me.
