Beach Body 10 Minute Trainer Abs Workout

I've been doing the Beach Body 10 Minute Trainer workouts for about a week now and I really like the ABS workout. Having strong abs is about more than just a flat stomach, although that's one great benefit. Strong abs helps strengthen your spine and low back as well, helping your posture and helping to prevent low back pain. As we get older, we need strong abs, or core muscles, to help with our balance too because these muscles help to stabilize our body.

Yoga and tai chi focus a lot on core muscles and strong abs. The 10 Minute Trainer includes a 10 minute yoga flex workout too, which is good.

You can purchase your own 10 Minute Trainer program. from Amazon.com. You can also Sign up for the Beach Body Membership or become a coach and pay just $59.93.

I schedule every workout in the Wowy.com gym (everyday someone who schedules and finishes a workout, wins a prize!) Membership with Team Beach Body and use of the Wowy supergym is free. You can scedule workouts, start a blog or chat with others using different Beach Body programs and track your fitness and healthy diet goals.

In the Wowy Supergym, you can put in the Beach Body workouts you do and automatically set up a workout session. If you want to do other workout activities, like walking or jogging, you can schedule those too.

The 10 Minute Trainer is great if you can only exercise for 10 minutes and you get a good aerobic workout. You can focus on different parts of the body on different days and by the week's end, you've worked out your total body and had a good stretch too. Even if you combine 2 of the workouts, you still only need 20 minutes to accomplish a lot.

Even though you're only working your abs for 10 minutes, you work up a sweat and the workout isn't easy. There are 20 moves in this exercise session, all done for 30 seconds each. Tony Horton does show some easier variations of the exercises if you're a beginning, like me.

The 10 Minute Trainer helps you lose both weight and inches. I've lost 2 pounds this past week without really changing my diet.

New health and fitness articles are posted on the Team Beach Body website continually and you can use fitness tools to help you plan meals, figure your own healthy body weight and caloric needs and find out what your body fat is.

Easy Exercises at Home - 5 Ways to Get Effortless Exercise

Would you like to do some easy exercises at home so you could be more physically fit. Most of us would love to be physically fit but just don't have the time and energy for a time-consuming exercise program. If you're looking for easy workout exercises, there are several ways you can get effortless exercise that will help to easy toning and weight loss. Here are five different ways you can do easy exercises at home, without even realizing it.

Easy Toning Exercises as Part of Daily Life

1. Where Do You Park Your Car? - Think about all the trips to the store you make in a week. One easy workout exercise is to park your car as far from work or the store as possible so you get easy toning just from walking. This easy fitness exercise adds up to many calories burned over time.

2. Clean Your House for Easy Exercise - Housecleaning is one of the best overall exercises we can do for a number of different reasons. Dusting, mopping the floor and washing the dishes are great physical activity. Household tasks can burn up to 100 calories in 30 minutes. Besides being easy exercise you can do at home, having a clean house is going to make us comfortable and less stressed. This will go a long way in helping us achieve our fitness goals.

3. Enjoy Your Children - Children are powerhouses of energy and can be a great source of exercise for you. Take your kids to the park where you can walk, run and play basketball with them. Go for nature walks with your kids for easy toning for you and for them. You're teaching your kids the value of being physically fit and spending some valuable fun time with them.

4. Take Dancing Lessons - Dancing can be one of the best workouts around plus it's lots of fun. Lessons are usually available at the local community center or college. Check your local listings and see if you can get in on the fun. This workout will be more strenuous but you won't even recognize it as being exercise. It is also a great way for you to spend some family time and almost everybody will enjoy doing it.

5. Don't Use the Phone or Email - Instead of picking up the phone and calling somebody on the other side of your office or shooting them an email, get up out of your cubicle and walk over there to talk to them. It may seem small but this is good, easy exercise that will add up over the course of time.

Think about all the things you do during the day and see what else can be turned into an easy exercise at home or at work.
