pilates

[ultimo]

i was wondering if you boys ever did pilates to cut up or ever tried it

[Mesomorphyl]

Yeah i did it as my cardio when my wife was doing it, when she stopped I just started the treadmill again.

so what did you think of it meso?

I am thinking of doing it to increase my flexibility

[Mesomorphyl]

Stretch and do Tai Chi for flexibility and suprisingly energy. Plus it's more masculine.

pilates is cool but its not for all body types. You have to have a slender build to get the most out of it. It does strenghen your core. some of the postions are really tough. Although at my Y there are some rather large size people that are devoted to the class. Recently the rage has been it helps your golf swing, so now more men ( masculine) men are in it. Power yoga is a good way to increase flexibility. I have taken that with my wife a couple of times. Just don't work out your upper body hard, the poses will kill ya.

I feel for flexability tai chi and for low impact strengthening pilates
