Walking-type workouts with weights

[alisoncooks]

I am wondering what workouts combine low-impact cardio (Leslie-style) with weighted arm movements. I'm looking for weighted moves during the walking, not intervals. And I'm not looking for workouts that combine lower body (squats, lunges) + upper body to raise the heart rate...

Something along the lines of Gilad's Step & Tone -- or that section of Jari's Lean Machine where they're marching/side-stepping with accompanying arm movements. I say similar b/c I am not coordinated enough to keep up with Gilad ... and the Jari segment is redundant... but something LIKE that!

Hamelin D'Abell has some stuff that I like (Cardio Tone 2, his Classic Arms & Shoulders does some marching/side steps with arm work).

Any dvd suggestions?

You may also like Fitstix workouts.
Fusion is wonderful but I don't think it is a pressed dvd.

here's an incredible deal on it!

I believe the official Fitstix website is now gone.

Kathy Smith's Matrix Walk uses weights for 40 of the 50 minutes. Also, in the Biggest Loser Power Walk there are four one mile segments - one of them uses weights and the other one uses a medicine ball. There is a very old Leslie Sansone workout that I originally had on VHS called 3 Mile Power Walk that used weights for the entire workout. You can find a lot of the old Leslies repackaged or retitled and on DVD. Finally, there's the Leslie Sansone DVD called Burn Body Fat that uses light weights for almost the entire workout - it includes a 1 mile walk, a 2 mile walk, and 3 mile walk.

You can also hold light weights (even doughnuts, Fitstix, Zumba sticks, etc.) during any walking routine.

That's what I do, adding my own variety of upper body exercises.

The Firm had an old audio workout that used weights while walking voiced by Susan Harris. I don't know for sure, but I think Fitness Favorites may have put it onto a dvd or audio CD.
