Pilates anyone?
| Tue, 10-14-2003 - 9:27am |
I started taking Pilates last week,nearly killed me,but I was able to leave the studio on my own. It's a very strenuous ab/leg workout..but not too cardio-ish. My sister goes with me,and she was in need of serious help to get in the car,LOL we also bought a Pilates video to do on days we do not go to class. Classes are a bit pricy for me,$14 per class,so I'll only be going once a week,instructor suggested 2-3 times per week ( Ya ok pass me the $$ LOL)
Does anyone do Pilates? Either mat or reformer? (reformer is with the Pilates machine) We think that maybe after a few more classes we might be ready for the reformer...maybe
Any input on Pilates?
Thanks,Jan

I found this post of Barbs Jan about her Pilates tape.

And we have another boardie, Ri I think, who was looking for a pilates buddy.
Maybe someone else will be able to share more. :) Good luck.
Sounds like quite a workout.

Hi Cappy,nice to meet you as well.
I haven't received the video yet,my sister ordered it online..so I'll see how it goes..don't even know which one it is...but it has to be better than the class,LOL
We were fortunate enough to be the only ones in the class last week,so the instructor said she went a bit easier on us..cannot imagine if the class was full!

Thanks Golly ..It is quite a workout..and right in the areas I need to focus on..abs and legs.
i'm looking forward to tomorrows class..maybe it'll be easier 2nd time around? LOL

I have a tape on Pilates....tried it...it's HARD! Then I heard that if you don't do it right you could hurt your back (:( So I haven't done it again. Let me know if that's just a myth! I could REALLY use it but I can't risk my back.

Never have done them and not sure I will
Hopefully others will be able to pass along their input :)
