Does anyone do this type of workout? I took my first pilates class last night and it was incredible! I usually do yoga, but I got to the gym too late, so I jumped into a pilates class.
Ladies, I have been working out for a pretty long time, and I am in pretty good shape. If I could explain to you the pain I am in today.......
Amazing workout! I highly recommend.

Re: Pilates...
I workout regularly but have never done yoga. Do you think pilates would be too hard?

Re: Pilates...
I've been doing winsor pilates at home and I love it!!! I usually can't commit to any type of workout for too long because I'm such a lazy a55 but I haven't missed a week in over a month. And my stomach is really starting to get some definition.

Re: Pilates...
No, it's nothing like Yoga. You totally should try it! It is all about stretching and lengthening your muscles. It didn't even feel like a work-out while I was in there. I woke up this morning and could not believe how I felt! I love knowing I got a good workout!

Re: Pilates...
eroxgirl- I have seen the infomercial for winsor pilates a million times and always wanted to buy it. I just can't see myself doing it at home. Did you get the tapes through the infomercial or in a store?

I started doing them this past week and I feel taller. It really helps with your posture. I love it. I have the Winsor Pilates tapes.

Re: Pilates...
I got them online because of the infomercial and plus a lot of girls on the slimdown board recommended them. I decided to do the home thing because I know that I can't commit to a gym - when I leave my office I just want to go HOME! so I get to it at least once a week (on a lazy week) and more often on the non-lazy weeks, lol!

Re: Pilates...
I've always wanted to try this. Which site did you order them from?

Re: Pilates...
I don't remember exactly but here's a link I found - its through the Gunthy-Renker (sp?) company, I think.
Does it help you lose weight or just tone what you have??

Re: Pilates...
I cannot even tell you how Pilates how changed the shape of my body. I have always been fit but had a bit of a bulkier body from years of gymnastics. I have literally dropped two sizes and my arms and legs are SO defined and much slimmer/thinner. None of my friends can believe its all from doing pilates once a week for the past year. I do an hour of the reformer (the machine) with an insructor and I love it!
I am about to kick it up to 2x a week since I have two months to the wedding. Oh, and my instructor says those Windsor tapes are great.
