Pilates for Dummies

Pilates is a great new form of exercise. It focuses on aligning and relaxing the body while strengthening core muscles. The best part is that it’s easy to get started, even for beginners.

The best option for getting an optimal Pilates workout is to work with a professional. The best place to find an expert is at a Pilates Studio. These can be found in many cities. They not only have people that specialize in teaching Pilates, they also have machines specifically designed to give you an optimal workout.

If there aren’t Pilates studios in your area, you should look around for a class. Many health clubs will offer these classes for a lower price than going to a studio. While you probably will be doing exercises on a mat instead of machines, you’ll still be taught by someone who knows what they’re doing and can help you use proper form and attain the maximum benefit.

If you can’t find a class or studio near you, you have a few other options to try. The first is to buy a good book or set of tapes that teach you specific moves and how to do them.

Pilates can be great to help with strength, balance, and posture, among other things. Just be sure not to neglect doing cardio work as well. While it can’t replace aerobic exercise, Pilates is a great addition to your exercise regime.
