Wow this was great, I had only a limited time for working out this morning. So this Ida's great, it warmed me up real good. Ready to go facing a busy day. I will be walking 45 minutes during lunch with a friend. My walking speed is 4.1 miles per hour. Thank Coach Nicole. - 4/18/2013 6:28:31 AM

I never realized how uncoordinated and clumsy I really am. This will take some getting used to. - 4/2/2013 1:17:23 PM

Wow. This short exercise routine made me realize how uncoordinated I am. It will take me a few times to get this one right. :) - 4/1/2013 12:29:26 PM

What an absolutely doable workout and great way to get a little cardio and stretching to activate your muscles. I've finally gotten myself motivated to doing a 10 Minute Trainer workout 2-3 times per week and we've got a "Walking Challenge" called Healthy At Work to get us motivated to track our daily steps. These short workouts are helping me feel more balanced and stronger. It's amazing what a desk job and age can do to make you feel so out of shape. - 4/1/2013 12:20:21 PM

Thank you, Coch Nicole, for getting me up out of my chair unexpectedly to do a little cardio-we rock! And I like how you encourage us to modify it a bit if we're not at the higher fitness levels-thank you!!! - 3/29/2013 6:30:16 PM
