10 Minute Solution Prenatal Pilates
No Time To Exercise? We have the solution for you – the 10 Minute Solution! Everyone can find at least ten minutes in their day, and we’ve developed 5 dynamic workouts that are just 10 minutes each. The workouts were designed to help you stay fit and healthy throughout your pregnancy. These compact workouts fit into even the busiest of schedules. Split them into 5 separate workouts or do them all together for one amazing, prenatal Pilates workout! Highlighted in the August 16th, 2007 issue of The New York Times, this DVD will allow you to modify your workouts to your pregnant body.
Pilates For Buns & Thighs: Get ready to strengthen your lower body and get toned, firm thighs and buns – even as your belly continues to get bigger.
Standing Pilates: For this segment, instructor Lizbeth Garcia reworked traditional mat work into standing exercises that help improve strength, balance and coordination – things needed throughout pregnancy, especially needed in the third trimester.
Core Pilates: This workout focuses on strengthening your core muscles to help you bounce back from delivery and may even help to reduce lower back pain during pregnancy.
Pilates For Flexibility: Allow your body and mind to relax while you focus on releasing tight muscles through fluid exercises that will increase your flexibility and overall sense of well-being.
Total Body Pilates: Designed to develop overall muscle strength and flexibility, this segment will help you firm and tone your body. It may also make delivery easier by teaching you how to breathe deeply and evenly while tightening the muscles of your pelvic floor.
POSTNATAL BONUS WORKOUT: FLAT BELLY FAST As a special bonus to use after your pregnancy, this core-focused segment created by instructor Suzanne Bowen zeros in on the deepest abdominal muscles with a singular goal: to flatten your belly fast. A set of 2- 3 pound dumbbells and 1-2 pillows are recommended for this workout.

5 Stars Great DVD
It is a great workout video! She is an encouragment to all women and her teaching style is great.
5 Stars So far, been liking it a lot!
The back exercises are really too short to be problematic… all in all, seems like a wholesome workout, and she’s clear and easy to follow. Thanks!
5 Stars 10 minute solution: prenatal pilates
This is a great dvd at a great price. I like that you can customize your workout by choosing which 10 minute sessions you want to do and in what order.
5 Stars A great workout for pregnant moms
I am 28 weeks pregnant and have been using this dvd for the past two weeks. I am new to pilates and I have to say so far it’s been great. The instructor is easy to follow, she gives good tips for modification, slowly adds difficulty to the exercises, and seems very natural. Yes, there are short segments on your back, but all the while you are moving, (tilted abs, spinal twists and precursor to bridges, which by the way, the latter two, you do in regular prenatal yoga class). The instructor herself is 36 weeks pregnant and I doubt she would put herself at risk either. I love the option to mix and match your workout or do as much as your busy schedule allows. Over all, great buy, I would definitely recommend it to stay in shape and would give it to my friends for use.
5 Stars Just what I was looking for!
I love this video. Before I bought this one I had tried 3 other prenatal workout vidoes and none of them relly left me feeling like I had done much for my body once I was done with them. I actually broke out in a sweat with this one and felt more energized afterwards. The individual 10 min. workouts, makes it really convenient to start a stop when I need to. I would highly recommend this video to moms who want to stay in great shape and feel good while pregnant!
