Review of Virtual Walk DVD: Fitness Journeys - Natural Scenery DVD
This is my second DVD by Fitness Journeys. I enjoyed Through the Trees 2 so much that I bought Natural Scenery, too. It turns out that I lucked out when I bought the first video (by Fitness Journeys) since the video is so smooth, as if you’re gliding along. I tried a DVD by another company and was shocked at how bouncy the view was (it actually made me motion sick). The team at Fitness Journeys really produce a nice product! I’m a walker so this collection is perfect for me! The tracks vary from approximately 4 mph to 6 mph. Even though I’m not walking 6 mph, it seems to be close enough that my brain doesn’t struggle to reconcile the speed that the scenery is going by compared with how fast I’m walking. I enjoy Through the Trees 2, but some of the speeds are too fast for walking so Natural Scenery is ideal for my pace. My favorite track is the Warm-up Walk. During this track, I meander along a hill with the ocean off in the distance. Sometimes the path veers away from the water but quickly returns to a view of the water. At the end of the path, I’m rewarded by a pause on the beach staring out into the ocean. If only every walk could end this way! All of the tracks are refreshing on a dreary winter day in the Midwest. They all provide sunlit views and the expectation of something good to come.
Thank you for providing such great quality!

Worked great with my tread mill, the only drawback is the 6 MPH track seems more like 3 or 4 MPH. Great for people that like to walk, no running/jogging here.

Good DVD for cardio indoors I am using this video for my indoor cardio (spinning, jogging on my mini trampoline, treadmill and elipitical). It has a nice variety of scenery selections including a warm up and fights boredom working out indoors.

| Natural Scenery is part of the Fitness Journeys series of DVD’s from World Nature Videos. While it seems primarily designed to be used while exercising, it could also be used while relaxing after a hard day of work or maybe just as background while chatting with friends. There is a lot on this DVD which makes it versatile and well worth the price.
There are six different tracks, one warm-up and five work-outs. In each one, the scenery is really the star of the show. The colors are vibrant; the sounds are sharp and clear. The first person view gives a real ‘you-are-there’ feel.
For me, when it comes to choosing a work-out video, I want one that will hold my interest while exercising, have the proper pace for what I want to do and allow me to use it over and over again. This video accomplishes all three of these things:
The scenery is absolutely stunning. Each track is a completely different experience. In one track you may be walking on a dirt trail through the forest and in another you may be walking along a road with an open view of the landscape. Each one was shot on beautiful day with clear sounds of the birds and the wind through the trees. In some, you can even hear the sounds of flies buzzing around. I am happy to say that, with each of the tracks on this DVD, I was able to just enjoy the walk instead of concentrating on exercising in my basement.
The pace on each track is perfect for a brisk walk or perhaps a slower, casual run. To be sure, this is not meant to be a high-intensity exercise video. It probably won’t help you win a race. Rather, it seems meant to allow you to become immersed in the experience and it accomplished that very nicely. I use it with a treadmill, but it could probably also be used with a stair-stepper or maybe even a cross-country ski type set up. There is no distracting camera jiggle like in some videos, and there is no indication that it was filmed from the dashboard of a car driving around either. It has a smooth, even pace that makes it easy to match with my treadmill.
The variety of scenery on six different tracks, as well as the fact that each track will automatically repeat, means that I can use this DVD over and over again and not get tired of it. If you’re really feeling ambitious, there is even an option to play all the tracks together.
All-in-all I am very impressed with ‘Natural Scenery’. It’s become an important part of my work-out DVD collection. I would definitely recommend it.

I love this virtual walk/jog DVD! This Fitness Journey offers 6 paths to choose from, each with a different landscape, with beautiful natural scenery along the way. It includes paths to a beach, towards a mountain, through a tropical forest, along a tree-lined road, along a coastline or down a path on a windy day.
The Warm up Walk is one of my favorites! You travel down a road along a beautiful coastline. The waves urge you on...the path takes you closer...and the final scene is worth every step you took to get there!! It is definitely one of my favorite walks!!
I own 11 of these motivational DVDs created by Tony and love them all! Excellent filming quality, wonderful natural sounds that enhance your exercise routine and leave you feeling refreshed, energized, rejuvenated and ready to face your busy day.

Fitness Journey DVD's,
I love the Fitness Journey DVD's! So far I have purchase 5 of them and I use them to workout on my treadmill. They are very well done DVD's. I love the fact that they do not use some kind of odd music. Instead, they play only nature sounds that go along with the walk/jog/hike. One can clearly hear the wind breeze through the , birds sing, bees buzz, etc.
I highly recommend these DVD's.
