Can you really get flat abs in just 10 minutes? No, but that's not really what this DVD is about. This was the second 10 Minute Solution DVD I've had a chance to review, so I was familiar with the concept. The 10 Minute Solution DVDs don't promise results in 10 minutes, but they give you the option to do 10-minute sessions individually, or do all the portions at once for a full workout.

The 10 Minute Solution: Quick Tummy Toners DVD has five sections: Crunch Free Abs, Yoga Abs, Bikini Belly, Ab & Waist Definer and Sexy, Sporty Abs. Each section was led by Jessica Smith, who I really liked as an instructor. She was encouraging, had a seriously enviable body, and cued the moves really well, offering options to keep them easy or make them a little more challenging. Also, she had a different outfit and hairstyle for each section, which I got a kick out of.

Level of Difficulty
There were some challenging moves, for sure, but not tons of them. I definitely think a beginner could handle a majority of the moves with no problem.

Next Day Soreness
I can't say that I was sore at all from this. My abs were a bit tired by the end, but not as much as I had expected after 50 minutes of ab work.

Who's It For?
Folks of any fitness level could probably learn some new moves, but if you already incorporate a lot of core work in your routine, you're not going to find this terribly challenging. I think it's probably best for people who aren't all that experienced with ab work and are looking for something other than crunches to work their cores.

Likes
I truly liked the instructor -- she didn't annoy me at all. And the different sections were varied enough to keep me interested. It went by quickly and was reasonably fun.

Dislikes
I just wish it had been a little tougher and had options for some extra-challenging moves. After 50 minutes, I should feel more than slightly tired, you know?

Bottom Line
I might include the 10-minute sections here and there in with a big workout, but I don't think I'll do the full 50 minutes again. However, I have some friends who don't work out as much (or as hard) as I do, and I think it really might benefit them.
