   While that sounds great to a person that is lazy or has a busy lifestyle, there is not much you can do in ten minutes that will make you lose fat. That’s the warmup period. Exercise should be sustained for 45 minutes to see results.

   I’m not sure about 10 minute trainer, although I do know about the P90X course.

   All I have to say about that is it’s pretty good. If you do as Tony says and ‘Do your best, forget the rest’ then you will get a great workout. It does tend to focus more on muscle strengthening though although there are a few cardio workouts. It focuses on building muscle to increase metabolism and by that and dieting (and some cardio) you lose weight / fat and gain muscle.

   So, while I do not know about 10 minute trainer, if it’s anything like P90X then it’s bound to be ok. I’ve never been much of a workout dvd person, but the P90X series is quite good and I don’t feel like it’s some silly workout DVD. Takes a lot of motivation though.

   Finally, Tony is a bit funny in his own way – he makes for a good trainer.

   Note: The P90X does take a bit more time and motivation than 10 minute trainer would, as most workouts are an hour long and 6 days a week.

   10 minutes is better than no minutes. 20 is better than 10 and so on. Just do something. It’s a start.

   YES! 10 Minute trainer is an excellent program. Do keep in mind that the recommended workout is 2 or 3 of the 10 min sessions. However as stated before anything is better than nothing.

   The program is very good and the exercises use resistance bands that let you move from exercise to exercise very quickly. Each workout is 10 moves for 1 min each.

   It is cardio heavy so you will burn a lot of calories and the added toning is great for fat loss.

   It really does feel like you have a personal trainer with you for each workout.

   I have been using it for 3 weeks and I love it! When I am short on time in the Morning I do one workout and then the other 2 later in the evening. It works because it is flexible for what you can do. I also travel a lot so it is great to bring with me and do in my hotel room!

   Hope that helps
