Synopsis
Studies have shown that regular short workouts can be just as effective as less frequent, longer exercise sessions. '10 Minute Solution: Pilates' partitions the body into five different segments, each with a separate workout: Pilates for Abs, Pilates for Buns and Thighs, Sculpting Pilates, Pilates for Burn, and Pilates for Flexibility. Incorporating both standing and mat Pilates, these workouts are high impact and suitable for all levels.

10 Minutue Solutions Pilates
I was bought this DVD as I had a very bad back. I started using the first program and eventually worked my way up to being able to do all the programs. I lost weight and gained loads of core strength. It may not be true pilates (so I read) but it has done wonders for me and my back. I now use it to maintain my strength and supplement this with kickboxing (another 10 minute solutions) - something I never would have been able to achive before.

Great but not for beginners
Brought this DVD several weeks ago. It is quite hard but found if you stick at it, you really notice the improvement. I love the fact it is in segments and as such you can alternate (so as not to get bored) or if you are running short of time you don't have to do the whole DVD. However, please note, if you haven't done pilates before this would not be the DVD to start with! I will be looking to purchase others in this series so I can mix it up a bit.

Definately not for beginers!
I have been doing pilates for a few years now and there are still postures that I can't quite do in this dvd. There is one in the abs section that i can't do at all and I wish that she would show you how to get to that place, a simpilar version for you to start on and build off of.
However, I really really enjoy doing this dvd, and i love the fact you can pick what you want to do that day and do the workout out of order if you want to. Yet, I do not like the fact it doesn't have a warm-up section because I find I work much better when I'm stretched out. So I find myself doing a warm up from a different video and then switching to this one for my work out because i like to do a different warm up to a cool down (which i use the flexibility one for). I also feel that in the warm up it is here that you either learn about core breathing or at least warm yourself up to breathing like that (unless you are very lucky and breathe that way naturally!!). That is why i gave this 3 stars, otherwise i would have given it 5 because it is amazing and you can really really feel it!
