You're right, that is just part of what I am doing. I am also doing Power Yoga and going for walks whenever I can fit them in but I got to tell you those 10 minutes are hard training, or at least they are for me.

All total without the walks I am doing at least 30 to 50 minutes of exercise a day 5 to 6 days a week

With the walks it is 50 to 70 minutes a day about 5 to 6 days a week.

Last Saturday I did 2 sections of the 10 minute trainer (20 minutes) 45 minutes of yoga and then went and mowed the lawn and I felt surprisingly pretty good after it was all done.

However with the 10 minute trainer you have options if you have time. The general idea is 10 minutes but there is a schedule supplied that is 3 of these 10 minute trainer sections a day for 7 days a week.

I found that at my current age (old) and level of fitness (not good) that 7 days a week and 30 minutes a day of it was a bit to much so I backed it down to 6 days a week and 10 minutes a day. I was already doing the Yoga 5 days a week when I started 10 minute trainer so it fit together rather nicely.

But there is something that depresses me a bit, I have Power90 from years ago and I use to do it and now I have a hard time keeping up with 10 minute trainer but then I am about over 10 years older and over 70 pounds heavier so what the heck should I expect . But I am hoping that after a month of 10 minute trainer or maybe two, I can get back to Power90 and still maintain the Yoga.

And as I said before, I think, I can sometimes ramble on a bit to much, sorry about that.
