This book is great for beginners - may be great for everyone, I can only speak for myself as a beginner. I've used it almost daily for about 8 months. I bought other books at the same time, after the first week, they have not been touched. It has great advice and great variety. I did a whole lot more than 10 minutes, but with this book, diet and a treadmill, I have been quite successful building a new routine and a new body! This book was just what I needed and I am really, really glad I bought it.
