Description

No Time To Exercise? We have the solution for you – the 10 Minute Solution! Everyone can find at least ten minutes in their day, and we’ve developed 5 dynamic workouts that are just 10 minutes each. The workouts were designed to help you stay fit and healthy throughout your pregnancy. These compact workouts fit into even the busiest of schedules. Split them into 5 separate workouts or do them all together for one amazing, prenatal Pilates workout! Highlighted in the August 16th, 2007 issue of The New York Times, this DVD will allow you to modify your workouts to your pregnant body.

Pilates For Buns & Thighs: Get ready to strengthen your lower body and get toned, firm thighs and buns – even as your belly continues to get bigger.

Standing Pilates: For this segment, instructor Lizbeth Garcia reworked traditional mat work into standing exercises that help improve strength, balance and coordination – things needed throughout pregnancy, especially needed in the third trimester.

Core Pilates: This workout focuses on strengthening your core muscles to help you bounce back from delivery and may even help to reduce lower back pain during pregnancy.

Pilates For Flexibility: Allow your body and mind to relax while you focus on releasing tight muscles through fluid exercises that will increase your flexibility and overall sense of well-being.

Total Body Pilates: Designed to develop overall muscle strength and flexibility, this segment will help you firm and tone your body. It may also make delivery easier by teaching you how to breathe deeply and evenly while tightening the muscles of your pelvic floor.

POSTNATAL BONUS WORKOUT: FLAT BELLY FAST As a special bonus to use after your pregnancy, this core-focused segment created by instructor Suzanne Bowen zeros in on the deepest abdominal muscles with a singular goal: to flatten your belly fast. A set of 2- 3 pound dumbbells and 1-2 pillows are recommended for this workout.

5Great Fun Workout  Sep 05, 2010
I really enjoy this DVD! It's long enough and a good enough workout that I feel good afterwards and like I've accomplished something (Ok, so I'm not usually an exercise freak.) Ten minutes are also short enough that I feel like I can't talk myself out of exercising - I can spare at least ten minutes a day - so I've actually been sticking with it and being consistent. The workouts are fun and I can feel them working (without putting too much stress on my baby-growing-body!) I also love that there are five different workouts so it doesn't get too monotonous. I would recommend this DVD to any pregnant woman who wanted to stake in shape!

3Too Easy!  Aug 26, 2010
I wish I had read the reviews on here before purchasing this video because it is far too easy for me. I am not an avid exerciser but I had been exercising at least three times per week for five months prior to becoming pregnant, and now I'm at the beginning of my second trimester. The ab section just made me feel uncomfortable. The standing part consisted mostly of easy squats and pelvic tucks. The buns and thighs part for me was a joke having been able to do The Original Buns of Steel video without flinching. The only part that I did like was the flexibility section, but the instructor did mostly side stretches, and did not do a neck stretch at all. This would probably be a great workout for someone who hadn't exercised before pregnancy. But I think I will probably let this collect dust, and maybe try it one more time once I'm in the middle of my third trimester.

5I love this!  Aug 13, 2010
I've tried a few different prenatal fitness DVDs. I love Lizbeth's energy. I also find the 10 minute exercise to be really nice because you can do all of them, a few or even one depending on your energy level. I really enjoy the core work out. Before I worked out to this DVD I was a bit nervous about doing ab work outs at the gym but was worried about my core turning to mush. Now I'm feeling great and I am sure these workouts will be helpful during labor and help me get my body back after the baby comes.

4Good variety & exercises  Aug 06, 2010
I have always been a big fan of the 10 Minute Solutions series. They are quick, versatile, and give you a lot of good ideas of exercises to try out on your own. Everyone has time for 10 minutes, even if you can't string all the segments together for a 50 minute work out. I really felt my muscles working, without feeling like the movements were strenuous or unsafe for the baby. It is true (as other reviewers have mentioned) that she lies flat on her back, but it is NOT for very long, and she herself is clearly 8 or so months pregnant, and so it doesn't seem like a big deal. I mean, when you wake up in the middle of the night and realize you've rolled onto your back, do you freak out and panic? No, you just roll back onto your side. I didn't feel like I was flat on my back for nearly long enough to disrupt blood flow through the Vena Cava.

The fun thing about 10 Minute Solutions is that it takes longer to become bored of the routine. I like to switch up the order of segments, and have managed to stay engaged in the DVD for a couple of months now (along w/ a few other videos as well -- like Summer Sanders Prenatal Workout).

5Short & Sweet  Aug 06, 2010
Love that this dvd has 10 minute workouts perfect for the very pregnant(or not so pregnant) full time working mom. I work full time on my feet all day and still want to workout but don't always have the energy or time for a full dvd. The 10 minute workouts are perfect for me and I love how I still feel like I have gotten a workout whether I do one of them or all!
