Today was a 10 minute exercise type of day. The kind where you really don't have the time but need to get something accomplished. So this review of the 10 Minute Trainer Program came at the perfect time! I chose to do "Total Body" and I have to say it was a good pretty decent workout. On camera is just the trainer (Tony Horton) and one other person who actually did the exercises while Tony critiqued and encouraged her. I liked the fact that the trainer walked you through the technique of each exercise as they were done so you at home could check your form based on what he was teaching. I chose to use 8lb weights for the majority of the workout except for one exercise where I needed to use 5lbs. The one critique I do have is that there is NOT a warm up built in (which isn't surprising given the 10 min. time) but it would be important to make sure that you get a little warm up and wrist stretch in before beginning; likewise it does NOT have a cool-down... so same suggestion applies.
One awesome thing about this program is that there are 14 different 10 minute sessions! That's a lot to choose from. For quicker results I would suggest that you choose to do 2-3 sessions a day (spread out if needbe). There is a workout calendar, weightloss plan, nutrition guide, on the go work out cards and more available for download to compliment the program.
This one I definitely encourage my 11 year old ball player to do on the days he needs to condition and is a perfect start for anyone who is easing themselves back into a workout schedule.
This is an example screen shot of the different tools to help you succeed!
