The Pros and Cons of Tony Horton’s 10 Minute Coach
Website design By BotEap.comThere are plenty of exercise programs out there. Turn on the television and endless infomercials will flash across the screen, muscular men and women using strange-looking exercise devices or dangerous-looking machines for obscure reasons. People who march, jump, bend over and promise unlimited benefits if you just follow their latest workout routine. Some of them even seem legitimate, while others clearly make misleading claims. The question is: how to know? One such program that requires a little more scrutiny to make sure it’s not too good to be true is Tony Horton’s 10 Minute Workout, which claims that he will deliver early results if he follows the 10 minute workouts. Real or fake? We’ll see.
Website design By BotEap.comLet’s examine the basic premise. 10 Minute Trainer makes the following claim: “The secret is the SUPER STACK. You get a cardio workout, upper body resistance, and strengthening of the lower body and abs all at the same time. It would have taken you 30 minutes to an hour to do this with traditional workouts. In the “Getting Started” section, the program lists three main areas to focus on:
- Do resistance training two to three times a week, preferably not two days in a row, concentrating on the same body part.
- Do cardio at least two to three times a week
- Control your eating habits and your portions. You don’t need to starve yourself, but you do need to eat a little less than your body can burn each day.
