Pilates extra lite 3 out of 5
I have done several of the 10 Minute Solution DVDs, including 3 or 4 pilates programs, and have found them all to be well done. Cueing is good, instructors are easy to understand, and you get a good workout in 10 minutes. This one meets all but the last of those criteria and that is why I gave it only 3 stars. The 5 programs on this DVD are nice but are very, very easy especially if you are an intermediate or advanced pilates practitioner. The arms segment uses a couple of different moves, and the stretch segments are nice stretches but it moves very slowly-compared to other pilates programs-reps are low, and it just isn't challenging. At the end of it I didn't feel like I had done anything. It may be a great place to start for those who are new to pilates, want a gentle introduction, or have mobility issues that might make the approach used in this program more appealing. If you are an advanced pilates person and you want a 10 Minute Solutions program that is challenging try the 10 Minute Solution Quick Sculpt Pilates with toning ball.
excellent for beginner dancers 5 out of 5
It may be a little easy for experienced dancers but it is very good for people who want to become a good dancer to start with.
Excellent Workout! 5 out of 5
I didn't do any pilates before, but this dvd is perfect: easy to follow, straight to the point and really working the muscles! I eat whatever I want and still I do not gain weight because of the exercises! Although the instructor is going straight to the point and doesn't explain a lot on the exercises, its easy to follow. It has 5 sections and you can customize to do the exercises you want. Definitely recommend it!10 Minute Solution: Pilates Perfect Body
Excellent DVD for Intermediate level 5 out of 5
I found this DVD a little hard to do, which is great! I wanted something with more of a challenge. The section for the arms great, especially for your triceps. I still can't do the advance level one just yet. The abs section is good, but I miss doing the roll-up for my abs, you have to go to different section of the DVD to get the roll-up. The stretching section is excellent for keeping your muscles flexible and I like doing that one at the end of my workout. I like the instructor she explains what you are doing in each exercise well without being too chatty. Susan voice is nice to listen to, some instructors can put your nerves are edge,I can't even finish the DVD if I found their voice too irritating.
The Best Workout DVD to date! 5 out of 5
I love pilates to begin with. I cant stand workout DVDs that have all these crazy dance steps that leave me confused and left behind in the mess. This is not one of those DVDs. The moves are easy but extremely effective. I have 3 kids at home so I love the 10 minute solution DVDs because i can do one segment then pause when i need to take care of the kids and come back later. this is PERFECT for people pressed on time or new moms. Just because it's a 10 minute solution doesnt mean it doesnt kick your butt! The first day i only did 2 segments ( belly, and stretching) and the next morning my stomach was so sore i couldnt hardly breath! all that in 10 minutes? yes its true! I started this 6 months after having my third child (after having GREAT results after my 2nd baby) and in one week i was feeling tighter and firmer and within 2 weeks the "jiggle" was gone and by the 4th week so was my cellulite. After 4 weeks of doing at least 3 segments 5x a week ( thats 30 mins a day) I had lost 15lbs of baby fat and could see definition in my tummy and had the tightest perkiest butt ive ever had! ONE MONTH of this DVD and my post baby body was ready for a bikini! and i'm not talking "sort of okay" im talking really bikini perfect. I build muscle pretty fast and most workout DVDs bulk me up but this one SLIMS you. tight firm and slim and even more flexible. This video is for you. dont think about it anymore just buy it! I even got my mother on board and she has lost 20lbs and after a month got back into shorts for the first time in 20 yrs. And she looks awesome! highly highly recommend!
