Pilates in 10 Minutes

As a former rower who is used to extreme workouts and pushing your body to it's maximum limits, I have suffered from many back problems; therefore, my doctor recommended I try out pilates.I was not too excited by this because I am used to intense workouts and feeling the results right away.I wanted to try it on my own first, before taking a class, I went to the store not knowing much about Pilates, and just picked out a Pilates DVD.10 Minute Solutions breaks down major muscle groups into 10 minute increments.The workouts include: Super Toned Buns and Thighs, Arm and Shoulder Shaper, Waist Slimmer, Total Body Blast, Slim and Sleek Stretch.What I really liked was that you can either do the whole DVD, which is a total of 50 minutes or you can just pick a muscle group and do 10 minutes at a time.There is even a feature so that you can customize your workout, allowing you to choose the sequence of how you would like to workout.I definitely felt the results the next day.I love this workout because who doesn't have 10 minutes in their day?Sometimes I get up in the morning and just do the stretch and then go on with my day.It's a good way to start and end your day.It's also great when I am getting ready to go out on a Friday night and am feeling a little blah, so I will just pop in the DVD and do the 10 minute waist slimmer and then get ready to go out.It makes me feel good, knowing I got a workout in, even if it was just 10 minutes; and I like that I can feel the results.I am very pleased with this workout, and since I have started Pilates, I have had less back problems.
