Alta, I was pleasantly surprised at how good Kathy is on both her Steady Strides (part of the Project:You package) walk cd and her Lean Walk System Walk Fit (what a name!) cd. She's upbeat, but not annoyingly perky. She constantly reminds you about your posture, keeping your jaw and shoulders relaxed, tips to help you walk faster and more safely. The music is pretty good on the first workout to the Walk Fit cd, I didn't care so much for the second one (they're on the first cd), but maybe I need to give it another whirl. I'd love to get some other programs with other instructors or check out the music from Collage...so I don't get bored. Now that it's cooling down here, I hope to be doing more walking
I also walk outdoors...no treadmill, but I like getting outside, asthma or no
