Review: 10 Minute Solution - Pilates
We’re only in week two and it is starting to look like my son’s patience is wearing thin. It looks like we might have to readjust the routine and try working out while he’s asleep. I did manage to get through 30 minutes of Pilates from the 10 Minute Solution: Pilates DVD, however. It’s recommended that we commence each workout session with the Pilates for Abs workout (10 minutes), so I started with that, then moved on to Sculpting Pilates (10 minutes) and Pilates Burn (10 minutes).
The Sculpting Pilates workout requires a set of hand weights - which I didn’t have - but I did it without the hand weights. Even without the handweights, I could feel a mild burn in my arms so I think it would have been a pretty challenging workout with the handweights. I probably should get myself a couple of hand weights before I do this workout again, however.
Compared to the 10 Minutes Yoga exercises, I still think the Pilates workout is easier. Then again, my assessment of this DVD might not be too accurate because I did do the workout while trying to dodge a 22 month old toddler who wanted to share my yoga mat. But based on my limited experience with this DVD, I felt that the abs workout was the most challenging for me out of all the workout sessions on this DVD.
