MINNEAPOLIS, March 8, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX News Network/ -- Activision Publishing, Inc.

Coming this Spring, 10 Minute Solution will bring focused exercise activities to fitness fans with busy schedules, in an affordable and fun way.
"10 Minute Solution DVDs give users a unique fitness experience: customizable routines that fit into any lifestyle," said David Oxford, Activision Publishing. "We've taken this concept and combined it with the interactivity of the Wii, creating a new kind of workout that gets results."
10 Minute Solution combines the ease of the popular fitness DVDs with casual gaming fun. The game allows players to construct regimens from a wide variety of 10 minute routine blocks, organized into three main categories: cardio boxing, mixed games and aerobics. 10 Minute Solution is designed to captivate fitness enthusiasts and gamers alike with intense routines that play as a game, unlike other fitness games that simply have the player following a trainer on screen.
