10 Minute Solution Slim & Sculpt Pilates |
 Wonderful! |
| I've tried the lower body, upper body, & stretching segments of this workout for the first time last week, & I was like- wow!! This workout is wonderful! It totally packs a wallop in that short a time. I like the instructor. To me, she gives a calm, soothing presence. I actually prefer her to Lara Hudson. I'll be adding this workout to my routine. I loved it. - posted by Tranisha on 6/10/2008 |

| I never do this workout |
| Maybe I don't like Pilates much, or maybe I just have not done an excellent pilates workout but this one seemed to be too quick. I would really love it if the reps were HIGHER. She seems to move too fast and you don't really feel the burn because of the short amount of time you spend on each muscle. I have done some segments twice just because of this, but I have not really reached for this workout in months...does not seem very effective. - posted by Mandee on 6/2/2008 |

| Great Workout for Addon! |
| I really enjoy this workout. I use some heavier bands sometimes to increase the challenge. As far a the rating goes, you have to remember it's being rated int/adv as far as pilates workouts goes, not trying to compare it wiht Cathe, lol. Anyway, Suzanne gives great pointers and is a pleasant instructor. I love to add on a few segments after my cardio and get some great pilates in. - posted by Elaine on 5/15/2008 |

| Thanks so much Suzanne!!! |
| All I can say is WOW!!! This is a perfect workout for busy people. I started this program April 1st and did at least 2 workouts a night. With some jogging and a good diet I dropped 8 pounds and have lost 2 inches off my waist. Even though I have never done Pilates before this has really been a wonderful video for me. I love all 5 solutions and I just want to spread the word about how much this has helped me. - posted by Alicia on 5/9/2008 |

| Not crazy about it |
| I agree with Valerie, I will give it another try before donating. This is the first time I've used bands, and I was expecting a challenging workout. It was extremely easy, I felt most of my work was in pulling the bands tighter to get resistance. In other words, the workout was in my hands, more than any other body part. The arm work out was good, but not enough to justify buying the dvd. I will give it 3 stars but may change it if something clicks later. - posted by Cardius on 5/5/2008 |

| Love this! |
| I've done the lower body, total body, abs, and stretching segments, but not the upper body yet, and have really liked all but the stretching segment (though I may give it another try before writing it off). Anyway, I'm probably at an intermediate level as far as pilates goes, and I can feel these moves, so a beginner might want to learn the moves without the band first. But the great thing about the band is that you can easily adjust it to make it more or less challenging to suit your needs. And as someone else suggested, pause and add more reps if you want. The 10 minute segments are great so you can do as little or as much as you want/have time for -- I'm currently concentrating on cardio in the mornings to burn more calories, but I can slip in a segment or 2 of this on 3 evenings a week to keep my muscles and tone up. - posted by Valerie on 4/23/2008 |

| mixed feelings |
| I really liked the instructor. She gives great cueing. I think the only stumble for me is that I was expecting an Inter/Adv workout. I would not consider this an advanced workout at all. I am a regular exerciser and found that the exercises were just not particularly challenging. I do like this dvd because it offers something different. I will continue to use it and might take another viewers suggestions to pause the dvd and do more reps when necessary. - posted by mon on 4/4/2008 |

| Fantastic |
| I absolutely love this DVD. It is short and sweet. The moves are not difficult and you can feel that your body had some strength training. The added resistance band only makes these moves better. It is great if you can just do one and even better if you can do two or more. - posted by Saundra on 3/21/2008 |

| This is a fun, appealing workout! |
| I'm an advanced exerciser (I lift free weights four days a week), and this seems like more of a beginner workout to me, but it's really fun. I can feel the burn for the arm section, and there were some new abdominal exercises. Adjusting one's grasp on the band does increase the intensity of each exercise. The instructor is really cute and appealing. The flexibility section has a lot of useful stretches that I hadn't tried before. I am going to continue to do this DVD now and then, especially for days when I feel worn out or tired. It might not be the hardest workout ever, but it feels good and it's relaxing. If one doesn't lift weights it will probably seem much more intense! - posted by Karisha on 3/13/2008 |
