I mentioned a few posts ago that I started doing Callanetics and said I might post again after I'd done ten sessions, to see how Callanetics' '10 years younger in 10 hours' claim holds up.

1. CALLANETICS 10 Years Younger In 10 Hours. Now you can actually look ten years younger in ten hours. Callan Pinckney, author of the revolutionary best-selling exercise book Callanetics (a perennial New York Times Best- Seller), personally demonstrates her innovative deep muscle exercise technique that can literally shed years off your figure in hours without putting.
2. I completed 10 years younger in 10 hours, the original Callan Pinckney video from the 1980’s as it has excellent hip and behind exercises which are extremely effective. This, as you can see from my photos is a major trouble spot for me, so much so that I’m tempted to do the 20 minute Quick Callanetics for Hips and Behind just before bed as.

So I decided to go back to my original 1987 Callanetics Dvd to check if the 10 years in 10 hours had any validity. So does it work? I will say this, this program reshapes the body. You can actually see it reshaping your body. The slightly cut look I had in my legs and arms from P57 was immediately erased by Callanetics.

It should go without saying that nothing can make you younger--relentless march of time and all that--but Callanetics can firm you up faster than anything I'm aware of. It won't make you fit, it won't make you lose fat, and it won't improve your upper body strength. It will firm you up noticeably in an amazingly short time, though, so the '10 hours' claim isn't mere hype.
I'm doing Callanetics three times a week, and I've now done ten sessions. I've lost about one and a quarter inches off my waist and about three and a half inches off my hips. My underarm area (not the triceps, but where ladies who aren't super-thin get a little roll of fat between their bra and the edge of their arm) has firmed up considerably. (This is odd actually, because I assumed when I started that the underarm tightener exercise wouldn't work and it still doesn't feel as if it's doing anything to that area.) I think the sides of my thighs are starting to slim up. My abdomen is MUCH stronger than when I started. I still can't do the full set of reps on the stomach exercises, but I never thought I would improve this much so fast. All of these results in about three weeks and without the loss of one pound; and to be honest, there were two sessions where I was running short on time and had to cut my session short, so my time spent is well under the '10 hours' of the claim.
Callanetics also lives up to its claim to be easy on the back. I don't have back problems myself, but I have tried to assess it as if I did and as far as I can tell there's no strain on the back. There's more talk about back safety in the Callanetics book; I believe there was even another Callanetics book specifically for people with back problems.

There is strain on the neck, however, when you do the abdomen exercises. Callan Pinckney claims it will disappear after a few sessions, and for me at least this seems to be the case. She does recommend putting your hands behind your neck if it's a problem for you, and of course it helps if you try not to pull with your neck.
As for the other negatives, in the reviews I read before I purchased the DVD, I saw that some people didn't like the instructor's manner or her accent and that they thought the exercises were boring and the looks & musci laughably dated. I like the instructor, think the look of the hair and leotards holds up much better than most '80s area stuff, and don't mind the music (it reminds me of Mister Rogers neighborhood for some reason). As for boredom, well, most exercise is boring, that's why people prefer to sit on the couch watching Andy Griffith reruns; right now I'm too busy trying to improve to be bored by this, but when I start to get bored, I think the great results will keep me at it for quite a while after.
The only other 'negative' I can think of is that it seems a little odd to have the relaxing stretches before the final exercises; it may be because of my experiences with yoga exercise, but it just seems the tape ought to end with the relaxing lower back stretch. On the other hand, I love the placement of the ab exercises immediately after the warm-up; with this you don't have to go through the tape dreading the ab part.
Upshot: I definitely recommend this exercise video and the accompanying book. It may be nearly twenty years old and the exercises may seem odd, but it works.

After the manic mania of the Physique 57 challenge, I wanted something that wasn’t so intense. I did love Callanetics when I was a teen when this exercise method was all the rage. But I don’t remember what kind of shape it gave me. It couldn’t have been bad if I liked the program. So I decided to go back to my original 1987 Callanetics Dvd to check if the 10 years in 10 hours had any validity.

So does it work? Yes and No.

I will say this, this program reshapes the body. You can actually see it reshaping your body. The slightly cut look I had in my legs and arms from P57 was immediately erased by Callanetics. This wasn’t due to any loss of muscle mass but the fact that Callanetics really concentrates on stretching. The time it takes you to see changes will vary from person to person, but I guarantee you will have beautiful legs in at least 3 to 4 classes.

Unfortunately it won’t dramatically change the shape of your gut and hips. Will it smooth out those areas? Yes. But to see any huge changes, you will have to do plenty more sessions than just 10 and you will need to combine the program with a diet. In her book, founder Callan Pinckney included photos of a plus size model who completely changed her shape without diet and without losing weight. But she didn’t state how long these changes took place. From my experience after 10 classes, I would say without dieting, the changes you want will take at least 3 to 6 months of steady Callanetics sessions.

I also have a note of warning. Because this program works fast and changes your shape quickly, you will notice oddities. You will notice little pockets of fat popping out in areas where you never had fat before in your life. Don’t panic, it will smooth out after a few more classes. Because your muscles are toning fast, it pushes the lighter fat tissue out of the way. As you work the fat will redistribute and resettle in a more pleasing way.

Another note of warning for this program. This program will not give you cut muscles. You will not get a six pack or sinewy arms from this program. It will give you muscle but your shape will be refined.

This program is wonderful and it is extremely easy on the knees and back. The only drawback I think it would have for some is that it is very slow. There are no pulsing music beats and Callan Pinckney has a very melodious and calming voice. It could bore some exercisers.

I definitely plan to use this program for 10 more sessions in order to see what changes occur after 20 classes. If the pictures in Callan’s book are true, after 20 is when the real magic begins.
