Book Description

November 26, 2004
"I know I need to exercise, but I just don’t have time."

Now there are no excuses. If you can allot just 10 minutes a day for exercise, you can look better and feel better in just 30 days. Ten Minute Tone-Ups For Dummies describes a safe and sensible exercise program for men and women — one you can do in your home and at your convenience. It’s ideal for people who have not been active or for those who already have a fitness regime but want to expand it or tackle special problem areas. Whether you want quick results to look your best for an upcoming event such as a class reunion, wedding, or beach vacation (bathing suits are not forgiving), or have just faced the fact that your clothes aren’t really shrinking, this book helps you:

  • Motivate yourself and set realistic goals
  • Stretch, warm up, and cool down properly
  • Adapt exercises to your fitness level
  • Create an interactive workout
  • Target your trouble spots: the chest—upper back, slouching shoulders, flabby arms; the lower body—thighs, hamstrings and quadriceps, buns, and calves; the core: abs and lower back
  • Add cardio to your workout

Clear, step-by-step instructions and photos ensure that you do the exercises correctly and achieve maximum results. Written by Cyndi Targosz, a certified lifestyle/fitness expert, president and founder of STARGLOW Production, Inc., and a popular motivational speaker, this book also includes easy-to-follow guidelines for sound nutrition. If you tune- up your diet and tone-up your body, ten minutes a day make a tremendous difference in your looks and your life!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I needed!, January 6, 2008
By 
MDM (Fairfax, va United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ten Minute Tone-Ups For Dummies (Paperback)
This book is great for beginners - may be great for everyone, I can only speak for myself as a beginner. I've used it almost daily for about 8 months. I bought other books at the same time, after the first week, they have not been touched. It has great advice and great variety. I did a whole lot more than 10 minutes, but with this book, diet and a treadmill, I have been quite successful building a new routine and a new body! This book was just what I needed and I am really, really glad I bought it.

Ten Minute Tone-Ups For DUMMIES is a marvelous way to begin an exercise routine. The wording and the illustrations are easy to follow and to do. I would recommend this book to anyone just starting out. It's like a beginners guide on a safe journey on the road to a healthier lifestyle. So Tone-Up in Ten Minutes.

There is lots of good info in here, but ultimately I really needed a trainer to show me proper form and motivate me to work harder.
