(…even without expensive studio equipment)

So, you’ve bought your reformer…Maybe it’s a home version of the studio machines you are used to working on. Maybe it’s a sub-$500 model that uses a bungee style chord instead of the springs.  Maybe it’s a resistance band setup that hooks up to a door and mimics a reformer.  Whatever you have chosen, I’m here to tell you that you still can get a great workout at home…

Here are a few simple things to remember and try…the first one being my personal favorite!!

  • Take A Few Private Pilates Sessions with a Certified Instructor – on your machine
  • Use the DVD or Manual that came with your machine to get started.
  • Focus on Stabilizing your Body and Breathing before you do any movement.
  • Try to imagine every single exercise coming from your center.
  • Make sure to do exercises that move you in opposition.
  • Move slowly through the exercises.  (You don’t have to do this all the time, but try to vary your pace)
  • Make sure you do all of the following types of movements: Flexion, Extension, Rotation, and Stabilization.
  • Get a New Workout – Ultimate Pilates Workout
  • Download Audio Workouts from Lynda Lippin
  • Read The Pilates Body and The Female Body Break-Through
  • Add another activity like interval training, circuit strength training, or yoga to make your pilates workouts even more effective.

Now, that you know what to do … get to it… Let me know if you have any questions about your machine or if you want additional exercises for specific body areas and issues!

I know there are plenty of pilates studios in Marina Del Rey, Venice and Santa Monica.

Maybe you’ve been to some of them.  Maybe you’ve been to all of them.

The question is:

Why did you stop going?
Why haven’t you gone yet?

What’s stopping you from getting your pilates body?
Is it the Price?
The local studio schedules?
