Certified instructor description: An exceptionally well-demonstrated series of ten classic body- sculpting exercises. They’re all carefully designed to instill safe and effective form (ideal for beginners, or anyone who wants to improve their technique ... and results). Each exercise includes a base move plus a more challenging variation (e.g. a standard dead lift and a one-legged dead lift). With a calm, unpretentious attitude, Paul Katami points out common errors and explains which muscles are being worked. Each routine targets one specific body part — from your calves and hamstrings to your arms and back. Requires 2 to 8 lb. dumbbells. ©2010. DVD has: Wide screen.

Paul Katami's ASAP: Perfect 10 The Basics

good one
He just seems like such a nice guy! easy to follow, a little surprised at the slow pace( I used to do The Firm)but this is great for beginning again and for us heavier people. - posted by Patricia on 2/6/2012
Perfect for getting started/learning form
This is a perfect workout for me since I am wanting to fit toning/weights into my routine, but suffer from a past herniated disc and extremely tight hamstrings. These two things have made it very painful for me in the past to get into a steady routine. Paul is very concise with his instructions and the focus is on form. The 10th of the Perfect 10 is stretching and working on flexibility. With the exception of doing routines by Ellen Barrett, this is a workout I can do, and not feel so tight and sore that I regretted it. This is definitely not for someone who is looking for a serious workout - but it fits the bill for someone in need of working their way to fitness. Two thumbs up! - posted by Pam on 8/1/2011
good for beginner
If you have never lifted dumbbells or are new to muscle toning this is for you. The instructors tone is good. His instruction and guidance on form is good. I did not get a good workout, however. Would have been better if he had done an instructional segment and a workout segment. Too slow to do as a workout. He explains the moves before each set. Strictly made for the beginner. - posted by Fiona on 3/25/2011
Good CD
I liked this CD esp for beginners. It has good exercises and I did feel it although I didn't "hurt" the next day. My only complaint is that I felt like I stood around too much while he was explaining the next move. I finally decided I would just keep doing the one before. I think it could have moved along a bit more smoothly from exercise to exercise. I would recommend it for beginners for sure. - posted by Nick on 3/20/2011
BORING...
I was looking for a free-weight WORKOUT with basic moves and thought this fit. But this workout is TOO BASIC. It really is about introducing the moves not actually doing them for a workout. He does 3 moves for each of the basic body areas but only one set with only 10-15 reps of each move. Skip it if you already know how to do basic free-weight moves. - posted by Kristina on 3/12/2011
Paul Katami on the basics rocks!
My husband and I needed something to get us up and at 'em over the winter. This fits the bill perfectly - no jumping around aerobics, and no thumping music; just the facts. Every move is well explained and demonstrated. He is motivational and a very good teacher. A great way to start or end the work day! - posted by Jean Rudolph on 2/4/2011
Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
