   I actually expected something a little different regarding weight loss, exercise & diet. This is just a repackaging of the same old advice—exercise & eat less! Author simply breaks up exercise into shorter sessions. Save your money & go to a gym!

   This is a great workout for 30 minutes. I am not a big believer in 10 minute workouts, so I do all three together, but they are good separately, too. I especially love the Pilates workout because it is very relaxing. If you do cardio and/or lift weights regularly, it won’t challenge you, but it is nice when you only have 30 minutes to be able to pop it in and have a balanced quick workout. Don’t be afraid of this if you are a beginner. Freytag is a great teacher.

   I prefer having a book to workout from when I am in a time crunch. So this book works out perfectly for me. Now there is some recipes and other “diet” tips in this book but more of my focus wanted to be on the exercises.

   She has a plethora of workouts ranging from 10 minute workouts for all over body tone, cardio, and specific body toning such as legs and glutes and abs and arms. I am trying to get my body back in shape so 10 minutes is really more of a starting point really. It took me more like 15-20 minutes. I didn’t want to rush through some of these workouts. Especially the ones that involve using weights.

   All in all this is definitely a good book to have around when you need a quick jumpstart back into being healthy.

   I’m still working on reading through the book, but the workout DVD that goes along with this book is great!

   Three intense 10 minutes workouts on weight training along w/cardio, pilates and kickboxing. Do all three along with the warm-up and cool-down and you get a great 40 minute workout.

   When I am short on time, I sometimes just play the kickboxing segment twice and it really gets your heart rate up and break a sweat, one of the keys to weight loss. I also try to include the warm-up and cool-down to avoid injury.

   I feel that the workout DVD is worth your money.

   I love this book. I agree with another reviewer that the routines are very easy to follow, clearly explained, and there’s plenty of them to keep you going for some time. Before buying this book, I had been working out for 7 months and lost 35 pounds. I was SO BORED of my exercise routines, and I hit a plateau. After I started doing the 10 minute workouts described in this book, my body started feeling sore again the day after working out… It felt challenged! And I feel great. Goodbye, plateau! Worth the money. Buy it.
