Pretty excited about the yogaaccessories.com… ! Has Yoga mats, Yoga Pants, and even meditation pillows (called Zafu) Really cute gear for a great price.. !
My newest love is the Pilate’s !! I read about Pilate’s Apparatus and was a little intimidated at first. But once I called the studio for more information and informed the owner about my condition. She asked for me to come in and meet with her. Because before you take the class you need to learn how to use the machines. Well during my lesson with the instructor we both decided that it was a good idea for me to have private lessons instead of the class. I have to say that its the most non impact and least restrictive exercise ever. Something about hold on the the straps of the reformer and gliding with the resistance is so relaxing. At the same time its a flowy relaxing exercise I can feel my muscles strengthening.
Many dancers use Pilate’s for long lean muscles and for improving their balance. Well Heck.. ! If dancers are getting lean toned bodies from Pilate’s…. Well I’m going for it. !! Toned body without all that roughness at the gym.. I will still continue some of the light machine weight exercises at the gym but for me it has nothing on Pilate’s… This was my first week and I will keep you posted on my progress.. !! Lots of love and happiness for you… and remember this is just my own blog on how I live with my hip condition and I highly recommend you discussing with your own Doctor before starting any exercise or vitamins etc…. because we are all different..
