More fun than most workout DVDsMarch 5, 2008 V.(Massachusetts) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Maybe it's the novelty of the resistance band, but this DVD is both challenging and fun. The resistance definitely enhances the pilates moves you might be familiar with from mat classes or DVDs. I also really like that you get an upper body workout not just in the "upper body" segment of the DVD, but during many of the exercises. You can vary the resistance level by adjusting your grip on the band. Suzanne Bowen is cheery without being irritating (also a plus!). She got on my good side by avoiding use of the word "buns" during the lower body segment.
The nice thing about these 10 Minute Solution workouts is that if you just press "Play All" it's most likely that you'll blink and find you've just done all 5 segments. This is a nice routine; and it comes with the resistance band.
AWESOME!!!March 3, 2008 V. Cedano(White Plains, NY) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is the best Pilates workout I've done in many years! I did Winsor Pilates before but this is by far much better!... The workouts are short but effective (I've been doing them for 3 weeks already and I have noticed a big difference in my tights and arms) The instructor is amazing! And working out with the elastic band make the exercises much more challenging. Overall a great workout.
BUSY LIFE - EXCELLENT SOLUTIONFebruary 29, 2008 Kelly Hunt I wanted something that would fit into my VERY busy schedule. This is perfect. Getting out of bed 20 mins earlier in the morning to fit in 2 routines is a great solution for me. Love it!

I really like this DVD. I'm not flexible at all, but I can do almost everything on it. I love using the band. The instructor isn't annoying like a lot of them are, either. I feel like I get a good overall workout, and the ten-minute segments are great so that you can do different things or do as much as you have time for.
Good video bad bandFebruary 14, 2008 Eleanor O'Brien 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I enjoy this video. I like how you can choose and customize your workout. First time I thought it went a bit quick and I was confused. I just needed to watch it a second time. I could really feel the workout the next day. The band however is not of good quality. I would suggest getting another band.
