GREAT, UNIQUE Workout!
I'm the self-proclaimed exercise DVD junkie. I have two little ones and prefer getting up early to work out at home rather than dragging me and my kids to the gym. I have a huge arsenal of DVD's, many of which I watched once and thought they were awful, and never returned to them. I have a handful of tried and true videos that keep me motivated to work out 7 days per week. This will definitely make the 7 day list for me! To be honest, I just did this for the first time today and only did the abs portion, the cardio/weight portion and the lean muscle portion. I work out 7 days per week and THIS MADE ME SWEAT! The best part about the sections I did today was the abs workout. I have NEVER seen any of these moves. She kept it new and effective and definitely kept my interest. Loved the music and the cuing was pretty good as well. If you like short condensed work-outs to work various sections and change up your daily routine without any boredom...this is for you. Great video to me!

A teeny bit disappointed
As an instructor, Amy is one of my favorites! She usually doesn't mess around - tough workouts are typically her norm. 10 Minute Solution isn't bad, it's just not as high intensity for what I'm used to with her.Five 10 minute segments:- Fat Blasting Intervals- Belly Fat Burner- Lean Body Sculpt- Cardio Kickboxing- Power YogaYou will need 5 lb. weights and a mat (if hard floor). The first two 10 min. sections were a little disappointing. In Fat Blasting Intervals, the weight intervals seemed awfully short, even taking into account it is a 10 minute segment. The cardio intervals are excellent though =) The Belly Fat Burner had some intense moments - she does standing & floor ab work. Again, just not as intense as I was hoping for. I'm wondering if she was preggers when this was filmed....that may help explain some things =)The remaing three segments make this DVD worth buying. Amy does some awesome arm work in Lean Body Scuplt. She also incorporates squats, glute work, and balance in this segment. The Cardio Kickboxing has great combos...these really get your heart rate up! Excellent cardio =) Finally, the Power Yoga. I enjoyed this, it was a nice stretch for the hamstrings, and excellent shoulder work. She seems a little wobbley - but that doesn't affect the effectiveness of this segment!The only thing I think is important to note - if your form is not correct, you will not think this is a good workout. Form is absolutely key in this, otherwise, you may not get much out of the workout. Amy's cueing is right on, and as mentioned by another reviewer, some crazy camera zooming/angles in Belly Fat Burner.Four Stars for this! Great for beginner advanced and up.

Good enough, but...
I have to be in the mood to workout to Amy Bento. She's a little too cutesy, which translates to her moves as well. The intervals, sculpt, and ab workouts are all very good, and her moves are rather innovative, but there's something about her that... Well, let's just say I can only take her in small doses. And watch out with the kickboxing. If you're into REAL hardcore kickboxing, this will be a huge disappointment. I didn't end up sweating very much, and it was more frustrating than anything else. She tries too hard to incorporate everything in such a short period of time that it would make followers, even those who are intermediate or advanced, susceptible to overexertion and even injury.

Great for a Beginner...
Due to medical reasons... I have not been able to work out for several years, thus leaving me greatly out of shape. I had purchased several workout DVD's to find out that I am more out of shape then I thought, especially with my severe asthma.I came across this DVD and for around $5 thought I would give it a shot... what do I have to loose? Well... I LOVE this DVD. If you do all 5 workouts at once I think that this video would be a decent workout for an intermediate to experience level person. It is great for me because I do one of the 10 minute workouts at a time. This allows me to get a good rest and get my breathing under control. Then later in the day I do another 10 minute workout with the same rest period afterwards. I know these are little steps... but for someone like me it is a great way to get back into shape. Hopefully, in time, I can work up several of the workouts at once... I think this video is a great option for anyone. You can design it to fit your needs. For the price... I say give it a try!

Fun and quick but still a good workout
I ordered this workout video just to try, not really knowing what to expect. I am in fairly good shape, within my weight range, but have not worked out at all in the past year and wanted to just tone up. Well I love this video because there are 5 ten-minute workouts targeting different areas/objectives and you can do as few or as many workouts in whatever order you want. The pace of each workout is quick and easy to catch on to, and you really get right to business after some quick stretching. That I love. But don't let it fool you - I was sweating half way through the first 10 minutes. First day I did two of the workouts, and the next day my legs were pretty sore. And because the workouts are so easily customized to whatever mood you're in and how much time you have, it's easy to keep going and stick with it. I would definitely recommend this video.

Not challenging enough for me
I love the 10 minute solution series because it fits perfectly into my day. I love that I can pick and choose which workouts to do and that every day is different. I have a whole collection, and since the old ones weren't making me sweat anymore, I went out looking for some new ones. This one looked good and I liked the idea that it had a 'power yoga' workout. I LOVE yoga and needed something that challenged me more.I don't like this DVD because it doesn't challenge me. Some of the workouts I get a good sweat worked up, but the power yoga is a very simple routine that I could do in my sleep. I think this is probably a great routine for someone who is a beginner and wants a simple work out. It just wasn't right for me.
