Review of Virtual Walk DVD: Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2 DVD
Yes I have bought about 6 of your Fitness Journey DVDs and I like them very
much. I watch them while I am on my treadmill and not only am I getting
fitter by walking and running I find that the beautiful scenery shown on
your DVDs has a meditative effect on my mind as well, helping me to get fit
and also to relax after a stressful day at work. I love listening to the
birds and other nature sounds on the DVDs and find I can get myself into the
"zone" where I can imagine that I am walking along a tropical road, an
outback road in Australia or along the beach.
I hope you continue to produce these DVDs and I have subscribed to your You
Tube page so that I can be informed of any new videos that you upload to You
Tube.
Thank you for making my "workout" more enjoyable.
Best wishes, Linda

Review of Virtual Walk DVD: Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2 DVD
Love this virtual DVD.
Took me awhile to find Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest by Tony Helsloot and Liz Jones. There’s several virtual DVD’s available from other sellers that are unprofessional. Seems like anyone with a movie camera thinks they can create virtual experiences! I loved these especially because there is no music, so I can listen to my own.
If you love working out in nature but can’t make it this is a great dvd.
I use in my home gym.
Thank you Liz and Tony.

Review of Virtual Walk DVD: Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2 DVD
This is great DVD for jogging/running on the treadmill. Most of it takes you through forest paths, a few sections take you on open roads. The only things I don’t like about the dvd:
1. After several minutes of scenery from one stretch of "road" it will switch to another "stretch" of road.
2. I am not a fast runner (around 5 mph) and the 12 mph it is filmed at seems a bit fast paced.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this dvd to anyone running on the treadmill! I previously purchased Scenic Trex Rainforest and the Through the Forest dvd will definitely be used more!

Review of Virtual Walk DVD: Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2 DVD
I love how smoothly the video glides along! I tried a DVD by another company and was shocked at how bouncy the view was (it actually made me motion sick). The video quality is great. You can tell the team at Fitness Journeys takes pride in what they do. I enjoyed Through the Trees 2 so much that I bought Natural Scenery, too.
Some of the tracks seem to be designed for joggers/runners since they are faster, but the first couple of tracks are great speeds for my walk.
The sound of the birds chirping makes me feel like Spring is just around the corner. Last Fall I started hiking nature trails at the nearby state parks... I’m amazed at how this video makes me feel like I’m right back on the path in the woods.
OK... this is silly input, but I really like the slim case that the DVD is in. I am trying to be somewhat of a minimalist and only own 3 DVDs/CDs total so to have thin cases to store helps take up less space.

I absolutely love it. The only thing missing is the fresh air and scent of the trees and nature.

Review of Virtual Walk DVD: Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2 DVD
I absolutely love this DVD. I live in a mildly nature deprived area. I love to hike in forested areas and don’t really have that here. It is a pleasure to jump on the trampoline or use the treadmill while imagining myself, via this fantastic DVD, in a forest surrounded by bird’s chirping. The only things missing are the feel of the breeze on my face and the smell of the trees and nature.

Review of the Virtual Walk DVD: Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2 DVD
‘Through the Forest 2’ is full of gorgeous paths moving through the forest, birds chirping, and the feeling that you are actually there in person. The DVD is beautifully done and would also work well as a non-distracting background for reading or working.
I used it while on my spinning bike and enjoyed it very much for a lighter workout. I needed it because I had just finished a tough workout and wanted to slow myself down a bit. I also wanted to enjoy the scenery a few minutes before I got back to work. It would not be my choice for an intensive workout, but would be ideal as a walking or jogging background or as a cooldown after a heavier workout.
The thing I like about it most is the fact that it’s possible to visit a gorgeous forest any time you want, day or night, in the heat of Summer or during a blizzard.

Prompt service and my husband loves the dvd. He watches it while he is on the treadmill and he says the time passes so much faster. He would rather run outside than inside, however, the weather is not always suitable for running outside.

Review of Nature DVD: Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2
A BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY..I am lost in the wilderness, and enjoying every moment of it. Im walking along a road thats paved in a deep gold color by the sunlight. I am very delighted to be here, and marvel at my wonderful surroundings. With all the trees and bush. I hear the birds, and birdsongs fill the air, and there are butterflies flying about. I have truely gone back to nature, all this has made me happy and feeling very relaxed. This journey im takeing along the road is showing me wonderful places, there is beauty all around, this is what dreams are made of. Make this journey, and you will find calm and tranquillity for a little while too. Im lucky to have this DVD and to be able to experience all this for myself. TO HAVE BEEN THERE.

I live in Western Australia and ordered this DVD not realising that it was filmed in our own state forests! Looks great & works well while jogging on the treadmill

Need to block out the hustle and bustle of the work day, this will do it. The walk is a little slow like the other vids but provides a nice deep green view of the forest. Not very stimulating but will be relaxing. I alternate it out with several others to maintain interest. Kind of boring on its own.

The video production is good. It is exactly as advertised as a trip jogging down wooded trails and makes you feel like you are there.

It is pretty boring. All trees & road look the same. Singing birds.add a little variety. I live in the Pacific Northwest so I'm used to quite a variety of terrain & trees.

Gets a little monotonous. Needs more variety in each of the walk/runs. More to look at! But it is better than a blank wall!

This is a great DVD for those people who are restricted to indoor walking. It makes you feel like you're outside walking in the woods. You can hear the birds chirping! Very pretty scenery - thanks!

I bought this DVD thinking that I could watch it and listen to music while on the treadmill. And, that’s exactly what I do. At first I thought it might be a little off-putting for balance while on the treadmill but it's not. It’s a great way to keep my mind off of how long I have to go and I don’t have to sit through TV on mute and have to bother changing the channels etc.
I recommend this DVD to anyone who wants to zone out in a calm way while working out on a treadmill or bike. The scenes are pleasing and the transition from scene/speed is smooth. Overall a great idea and DVD.

Scenery is awesome.
The bigger the TV the better it looks. Its a little slow paced for my stationary bike but the scenery is awesome. I also light a pine, autumn leaves or spring flowers scented candles to help the imagination. This is about the best you can do during these cold winter months.

Review of the Virtual Walk DVD Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2
Great escape from winter,
There is more than 18 inches of snow base outside here and tomorrow our wind chill will be -24 although generally not this cold we get over 250 inches of the white stuff during the 5 months of winter. I walk outside as I like the snow but I also use my treadmill. This video reminds me of walking in the local woods in the summer. It is nice to see the green, the dirt trail and get a break from all the white outside. My portable DVD player is not very loud so I can't hear hardly any sounds on this video even on highest volume. The trails are varied and the only wish I have is that I wish the trails were all at 30 minutes long as that's the time I'd like to walk but I just walk 5 minutes before starting the DVD and then however long after until the time is used. The walk does kind of look like it might loop within the 20+ minutes but woods can look alike. I really enjoy seeing the green trees and bushes and the dirt trail in the warmth of my home while the snow plow drives by.

Very pleasing,
Nice for a slow or fast walk on the treadmill. The trees and path and just right for a workout with escape purposes. I'm watching this on my small portable DVD player but I'm planning on getting a 32" TV to get a fuller affect while on my treadmill. Yes I would recommend it.

Makes Treadmill time go by fast,
I don't like walking on a treadmill, but in the winter with deep snow -- a treadmill is a must. Treadmills are MONOTONOUS because there is no change of scenery like walking outside. However, when I use this DVD the time seems to go by fast. I have a large LED TV in front of the treadmill and with a bit of imagination you can pretend you are walking in the forest.

Review of Virtual Walk DVD: Fitness Journeys - Through the Forest 2 DVD
This DVD shows beautiful serene scenery on a lovely sunny day, and it has a superb natural soundtrack of birds singing among the trees. The atmosphere is supremely calming and soothing, making the walk very enjoyable. The picture quality is fantastic, which brings the forest into the room with me: it is just like walking through a lush green forest. The DVD has five tracks, each showing a different scene with the walks getting slightly faster each time. This has encouraged me to increase my exercise rate without noticing it too much. The camera work is extremely smooth and I don't feel any motion sickness (unlike some other companies' productions).
The last track, although it is designed for cycling or running, is also suitable for fast walking.
Altogether I find this DVD great for encouraging me to continue with my keep-fit campaign, and I can't recommend it enough.
