10 Minute Solution Tone Trouble Zones - Thoughts

10 Minute Solution Tone Trouble Zones features Amy Bento as the instructor. It is a band workout and the the band does come with the DVD or at least mine did.

The five 10 Minute workouts are:
Arm & Shoulder Sculpt
Butt & Thigh Blaster
Total Body Tone Zone
Sleek & Sexy Abs

10 Minute Stretch

Arms and Shoulder Sculpt worked the entire upper body, although I felt it was light on the chest work.  The workout started with rear chest flys working the back.  Amy continue working the back with the bent over row. There is some double arm work as well as single arm work.  Biceps is the next muscle group work; bicep curl and isolated curl in what Amy calls the spider position. Some single arm shoulder work is next followed by a triceps kickback.The last exercise is a triceps push up. 

Butt & Thigh Blaster features the following exercises - skater squats, outer thigh & rear glute lift, pendulum kicks, donkey kicks, seated outer thigh pulls, lying outer thigh lift, and heel bridges.  I thought this workout was well constructed. Amy gives you a decent warm up and ending stretch.

Total Body Tone Zone is full of expansive moves many of which are compound in nature.  In this workout, Amy combines a lower body move with an upper body move. I like some of the compound exercises. Some I could have done without.  With this workout is seemed like I was constantly have to adjust the band within each exercise.

Sleek & Sexy Abs features both standing work and floor work. The standing work took up the first third of the workout.  The other two thirds contain floor work such as upper body crunches and hip thrust to work the lower abs.  Amy also throws in a set of bicycle crunches and v sit holds with a double leg kick out.

10 Minute Stretch.  Decent stretch that contain both standing stretches and floor based stretches.  I love stretching with the band.  I feel I get a deeper stretch using the band.
