Nice site. I have trained my abs hard over the years and I have found that the single most excellent exercise for me to strengthen the core muscles was the standard plank plus side plank, I can at this time maintain the position for 3 minutes which is great for me!

The ultimate way to determine if someone is fit is a well defined six pack of abs. Having six pack abs doesn’t only looks fantastic, but shows you take care of your body. It may not have escaped your notice that people who are doing countless crunches don’t quite seem to get that six pack their after.

Here is how simple it is. You break up your 20-minute workout into 4 five-minute segments. Every 5-minute segment starts out with you performing whatever aerobic exercise you choose at a comfortable level for 2 minutes. Do not make this level too easy but don’t make it too taxing either.At minute 3 boost your intensity for one minute. Then do the exact same for each of minutes 4 and 5. During minute 5 or the last minute of the first 5-minute segment you pretty much want to be at an intense level of exercise. This is where you really must push your self to the limit.

Building up your core muscles helps for overall strength and good posture. It can actually help people with a back injury (and help decrease the risk of back problems).

The Pilates dvds are really a useful resource to remind you of exercises that you may have forgotten or even when you don’t time to go to the studio.

My core stability has improved immensely from doing Pilates. My orthopedic therapist recommended I do them for lower back therapy and they worked great!

Hi,

Some people find Pilates intimidating, especially if you’ve never tried it before and you don’t fancy attending a class. Why not try Pilates at home. We’ve put together a special package to help people learn and understand Pilates and all the health and fitness benefits it can bring.

Best regards, Lee & Mandy.

Pilates can also be done without equipment. A Pilates Mat is the same size as a Yoga mat, although it needs to be much thicker since there are many rolling exercises in Pilates. Yoga has many standing poses, which is why those mats are usually only about 1/4” thick. In a pinch, you can use 2 or 3 yoga mats to do Pilates workouts.
