I already preordered this, but am not thrilled with the clip. The song that's playing in the warmup is really weird, and I'm hoping that's not a reflection of the music for the entire workout. I must say though, Leslie looks FANTASTIC! She is such an inspiration.

I don't mind the set or the song, but I guess I'm old and boring because I'd love to see a new workout with the "old gang".

Got nothing from this clip.

you mean you dislike the disco oowa, oowa, oowa bird calls? I know.... I don't mind it for a little bit, but not for the entire workout.

same here, but I doubt they'll ever return. that's why I like my old DVDs - to see the old gang.

I like the colors of the set - very cheerful!..... of course after the 99th time of doing the workout, I might have a different opinion!

I wish AnchorBay would release info about the other DVD mentioned in the OP, All Time Favorites.

How many workouts did they film with this set? It looks like either three or four according to the clips.

Here's the info to All Time Favorites, still no artwork:

IT’S A BIG CALORIE BURNING WALK CONCERT OF ALL-TIME FAVORITE SONGS RIGHT IN YOUR HOME! We’ve all heard it before. The most effective workout plan is the one you actually DO! But with all of the demands in everyone’s busy life, it’s not so easy to find the time and energy to exercise. Motivation is key, and music is one of the best motivators. Great music makes your workout more fun and keeps you exercising because you LOOK FORWARD to it. That’s why Leslie created WALK TO THE HITS. Walk To The Hits features hit music and High Intensity Interval Training (aka HIIT)-it’s the perfect combination! Hit music pumps up your pace, and HIIT training alternates between short bursts of all out effort and longer periods of recovery, allowing you to walk a shorter session while blasting away as many calories as you would in a longer one. A study published in The Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness showed that women who completed a 12 week HIIT program lost more weight than a group who performed longer sessions of moderate intensity cardio. The HIIT group also LOST MORE BELLY FAT. In short, walking to the hits using HIIT training is a sure-fire way to fire-up your walk! For this program, Leslie chose her all-time favorite, high-energy songs and combined them with her favorite Walk At Home moves to make one of the most motivating and enjoyable 3 mile walks she’s ever created! The miles will fly by as you step, tap, kick and twist to these ‘oldies but goodies’ that are sure to be some of your all-time favorite tunes too. So come on and sing along as you get your HIIT Walk on!

Bird calls? Maybe I can get Cecil (my parakeet) interested in this one. To date the only Leslie he'll do with me is one with the "Power Walk" song. He likes to march on his perch and scream "WAAAAAK!"

Hahaha I agree those bird calls get old after about 30 seconds. I just feel like Leslie has made enough money on her workouts that she can perhaps invest in some less terrible music. Every time I hear that "everybody" song on one of her old workouts I cringe. I like the music on her walk to the HIITS DVDs though, and most of her choices aren't so bad.

I totally agree re seeing the old crew. When I first started walking with Leslie that was the crew I was used to seeing, and I still love pulling out her older workouts for that reason. I hate to admit it, but I even sort of miss the bat cave . There was something charming about it. Luckily I have plenty of bat cave workouts to turn to.

What makes you say they filmed 3 or 4 workouts with this set?
