Passion for Pilates -- What is
Pilates
Here it comes again galloping
up behind you like a prized racehorse out to compete for the
Kentucky Derby! Summer! Picnics,
4th of July celebration, warm lazy days
basking in the sun at the beach – screeeeech – the
beach!
The beach – that place where
you remove most of your clothing and bare your body to the
world. That
place where you have to watch all the 18 to 20 somethings
strutting their stuff in bathing suits that have less fabric in
them than the dinner napkin draped across your
thighs.
You’ve tried all the
diets. You’ve
crammed down enough protein to open your own meat p0acking
business! You’ve consumed enough
grapefruit to save the entire world from
scurvy!
Heck, you even broke down one
year and bought a membership to a gym that you attended ONE
TIME! Mixing
it up with those same 18 to 20 somethings on their own turf was
just too much agony to endure.
What’s a girl (or guy) to
do? Maybe
it’s time to try a different approach. Sure, you might want to
cut down on the glazed doughnuts and trade the sour cream for
something a little more beneficial like cottage cheese, the
light kind.
If you’ve tried every exercise
routine known to the civilized world maybe it’s time to take a
look at something just a little bit
different. Maybe
you need to develop A Passion for
Pilates!
Pilates is a totally different
approach to exercise than what you may be accustomed
to. Forget
about exercising to lose weight and shift your focus to
physical activity and exercise that aims to improve the body’s
strength and flexibility.
Yep. Repeat
it. Focus
on improving your strength and
flexibility.

that? Glad
