There are many things you can do in 10 minutes. For instance you can brew a pot of coffee, pay some bills online, and even get an oil change. One of the things I’m sure you wouldn’t think you could do in 10 minutes is exercise. Most people’s concept of how much time they need in order to get a substantial workout generally hovers between 45 minutes to one hour. For many though the biggest road block to starting a regular workout routine is a lack of time. Between the kids, work, school, dinner, and then maybe some play time, there just seems to be not enough hours on the clock to get it all done and still have time left over for exercise.
For all those who seem to fall into the “not enough time for exercise” category there is a workout program that guarantees you results in as little as 10 minutes a day. The 10 minute trainer workout program done by Tony Horton (think P90X, P90X2, and Power 90) is based on a 10 minute time frame and claims some serious results from its users. But does it really work? And if it does, how is it effective?
It seems every year at this time the fitness world is flooded with the latest and greatest fitness products and programs. With the coming of a new year comes the perennial New Years Resolution. These resolutions are usually topped by the mantras to lose weight and get fit.

This presents the perfect “storm” of timing and opportunity for this industry to eagerly help answer all those New Year’s resolution makers with an influx of programs, products, pills, and devices.
