    Yep... I started pilates several years ago and it helps my body feel at its best. I actually started teaching it which led me to create a web-page dedicated to it. See my profile for more info! Cheers to you all feeling your best, Always!

    Alrighty, since it is only ONE pants size it really shouldn't be that hard. I would do two things (which have been mentioned already) some cardio paired with pilates. Pilates is GREAT for leaning out muscles - especially the side lying kick series in the matwork. HOWEVER, no matter what people tell you pilates is really not going to make you loose...

    Funny you should ask. I am actually a certified pilates instructor working on a pilates based web-site right now. I'm actually working on an article reviewing the top selling (though not always the most effective) pilates videos to post on my site. Winsor pilates is known, to the pilates instructos who under-go rigorous training, as a joke. We always...

    I think you have questions that many people ponder... I think you have nothing to loose if you try to repair (whatever it is you want to repair.)

    I've been struggling with back issues ever since we moved in Feb. I got too much into being able to lift heavy things (She-Ra!!) and tweaked my back. I had some back strengthening exercises from last summer when I did PT, but I can't find any of the papers. I was wondering if anyone knows of a book or website that has some illustrations for back strengthening...

    At the pilates studio I worked at a colleague of mine had a client that had celiac disease. She gained a lot, particularly stength in her legs, from doing pilates. She started out with 1/2 a session (30min) and built up to the full hour. Check out my profile for more!

    I used to get pains like this as well when I was in the process of distinguishing my diet. I was a dancer - and danced a lot. Sometimes I would have to leave class early, and more me this was really embarrassing!! The thing that helped me get through this was pilates and a bit of abdominal stretching. I do not have to worry about these pains any more...
