The schedule included has three listed per day, one day off a week (that's six days of working out, 30 minutes per day - suddenly it sounds a lot more realistic.) Now, you don't have to do the extra workouts - but they're there. I mention this because you need to plan for the time involved which is about 12-14 minutes per 10 minute workout (depending on how long it takes to swap workouts and get them loaded on your DVD player.) This is important to note because the program highly encourages "stacking" of the workouts. There was also a cool little flash-card set of a 10 minute workout you could take with you in your purse on business trips and easily do in your hotel room.īreaking it down further the DVD workouts are 10 minutes of ACTUAL working out, so technically when there is a switch from one exercise to another the clock stops for a moment - and it should. The 10 Minute Trainer is another set of DVDs (mine came with two DVDs that contained a 10 minute routine for Cardio, Total Body, Lower Body, Yoga, and Abs) as well as a resistance band, and a belt kit (I'll explain this in a bit) and several little pamphlets of information. I'm a personal trainer, and in the end 10 minutes is NOT enough, and everyone pretty much knows that. I have a lot of respect for Tony Horton, but let's be honest - saying only 10 minutes to someone like me does not inspire confidence in a program. P90X is not an "off the couch into a lunge" kind of program.īut you know what? Tony Horton's 10 Minute Trainer is, and I think that is why I'm actually impressed with the system.
However, the one big problem with P90X for most people is that while the idea of it sparks fire (not to mention the images people see in the infomercials), the body is often not at that point yet. I still have the DVD set, and I still go through it here and there when the mood strikes me. Now, my review of P90X is still dead on in my opinion. I just don't have time to waste on nonsense. I'm addicted to real fitness, not false promises. I'm dedicated, and slightly addicted to getting into anything new in the industry, as long as it isn't stupid like "lose 10 lbs with this amazing tooth brush!" or any other magic-in-a-bottle dangerous lies. I have a lot of things that I do, but the only thing that can truly be counted as a hobby would probably be fitness. What this really means is that I get to play.
I've been asked to look at Tony Horton's 10 Minute Trainer and to review it. I'm simply trying to find the balance between what is desirable, what is achievable, and what is going to work in reality long term with my life. I have both a Fine Art and a Business/Marketing Degree.
