NO TIME TO EXERCISE? We have the solution for you! Instructor Kimberly Spreen has developed 5 distinctive, ultra-effective Fitness Ball workouts, each one specially designed to tighten and tone your body. And the real secret of the ball is that it works your midsection without you even knowing it. Just by maintaining balance on the ball, you constantly activate your core muscles—so all the workouts will help give you leaner, flatter abs. Voted Top Workout of 2006 by Natural Health Magazine, this DVD allows you to split these 10 minute sections into 5 separate workouts, or mix and match to hit your own unique problem areas … or do all of them together! BUTT & THIGH TONE-UP: You’ll get incredible results from this segment – the ball allows you to really target specific muscle groups so you can tone, tighten and shape your entire lower body. ARMS & SHOULDER SCULPTOR: This segment incorporates light hand weights and utilizes the fitness ball to help you achieve sexy, sleek, and toned shoulders and arms. FIRM, FLAT ABS: The fitness ball gets you up off the floor and helps you to isolate the deepest muscles of your entire abdominal area so you’ll get better results, faster. TOTAL BODY FAT BURNER: This surprisingly fun and unique segment is a whole different take on the fitness ball – you’ll bounce, toss and roll the ball while you burn fat and calories! ULTRA STRETCH: You can achieve the deepest, most satisfying and effective stretches by using the fitness ball. You’ll want to do this segment again and again.

Summary: Great work out, but make sure you have the right ball
Comment: This is a great work out. It really get's my heart pumping, and Kimberly is a pleasant instructor.
However, I bought my fitness ball separate from the DVD because it was less expensive. Big mistake.
My fitness ball seems to be smaller than Kimberly's. Although I can do most of the exercises, there are parts where she is leaning forward on her ball, which I can't do.
Most of the time I just do regular crunches when these parts come up, but I would have liked to do the routine.

Summary: Highly Recommend
Comment: This is a great DVD and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a core ball fitness routine. I have two stability balls that came with their own dvd's and they both stink. I love all the 10 min solution dvd's and own four of them. This one is my favorite and I find that I do this about 3 times a week. The instructor is great and not at all annoying. Kimberly is encouraging and fun. And the 10 min for each segment flies by so before you know it, you have done a 30 min workout. My favorite segments are the upper body, abs (and I HATE ab work), and flexibility. And since you can create your customized routine, I sometimes do the same segment twice! If you are looking for a core ball dvd - this one is it!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Disappointing - may be OK for beginners
Comment: This DVD is the most disappointing offering from the "10 Minute Solutions" series that I have tried. Although Kimberly's cueing is excellent, I don't think program design is her forte: there are far more interesting ways to work your abs on the ball than doing standard crunches. The ab section also includes a "clamshell crunch" where you transfer the ball from your hands to your feet but in this DVD, Kimberly only goes halfway.
The flexibility section was OK, but again, Kim didn't make good use of the ball. Ditto for the cardio section; many of the moves just involve prancing around the stationary ball on the floor.
Overall, I think this DVD would be OK for beginners, but anyone more advanced would want something more challenging.

Summary: 10 Minute Solution: Fitness Ball Workouts
Comment: You would think a 10 minute workout would be for a beginner but not so. The workouts were great but not for someone first starting out. The target audience clearly needs to be already fit and just looking to maintain.
Customer Rating:
Summary: I love it
Comment: I am really convinced of this DVD. I am a real beginner in this fitness / workout thing and all the workouts are easy for me to follow. But there are enough "tricks" to make it more demanding so that I am sure that it is also good for quite trained people.
I normally walk the hills for around 30 minutes and then I add 2 or 3 of the workouts afterwards (normally "Upper Body", "Core" and "Flexibility") and if it is raining and I do not want to go out I am just doing the whole 50 minutes and still feel good afterwards.
