Thread: Pilates, anyone? Just started.

I used to use a pilates machine. They are really good!! A friend of mine also used a pilates machine and toned up alot. Maybe you should invest in one if your downloaded workout did something for you?

I use pilates videos once and a while. Look up some from the Crunch videos, they have a few good pilates videos.

Last year i wanted to get more toner for a close family members wedding, unfortunately i have bad knee problems and could not do any cardio at the time which is the quickest way to lose weight. so decided to do some research on youtube and get some pilates routines in place. every night after work i would do pilates with a number of different excersises for the abs, bum and arms (i bought myself a 3kg weight) i did this 5 days a week for approx 30 mins.

After a few weeks i began to feel so much more confident and leaner! I would highly recommend it for anyone who wants to get fit but doesnt want to spend too much money on the gym. There are heaps of really helpful videos on you tube that can help you. And whats the best is you can take a break on the weekend, and it only takes 30min a night.



Its great for people that have injuries as you can modify your workout to suit yourself.

I took a pilates class at my college. It was amazing! I felt so much more flexible and strong after...

Suggestion: There is a "10 min Solution" Dvd that I got at walmart for $10. It has 10 min segments of workouts to target different body zones or you can do all the workouts together. It's really nice for someone who might not have a lot of time or is just starting.

How about pilates for men?
