developed this need to exercise but I am ashamed to admit that this momentum only came after I realized I was gaining weight. I was more embarrassed by the fact that while I always associated it with exercise weight loss, exercise too many people was a completely different ball game. It is an essential part of their lives as food, water, etc. Feeling guilty for never exercising I got involved with this whole new world of exercise and hugged her as part of my lifestyle. However I was still struggling with what kind of exercise that best suits my lifestyle. I tried yoga, headed to the gym, identified during aerobics classes, but none were challenging me enough to stick to exercise as part of my daily routine. I had almost decided that perhaps the exercise was not mine and was mentally beginning to convince me otherwise, when Pippa Middleton (Kate Middleton's sister) finally revealed the secret of how she got her perfect figure. Kate's sister revealed that Pilate weekly sessions are the secret to her slender form, which captivated millions of people during the Royal Wedding.
Pilates Exercises for Weight Loss - Changing Lifestyle
In his interview with the newspaper quoted "From breathing techniques, muscle toning to overall flexibility and relaxation, my Pilates sessions have become something of a weekly necessity that keeps me fit, happy and full of energy." This was something that really caught my attention and immediately went to work trying to find out everything I could about Pilates. I found Pilates is designed to increase strength, flexibility and body control. Pilates is a body conditioning routine that helps build not only flexibility but also strength, endurance and coordination in the legs, abdominals, arms and back. Pilates requires intense concentration. This is not easy, but in Pilates the way they perform the exercises is more important than the exercises themselves. Nothing about the Pilates Method is casual. The reason you need to concentrate so deeply is what you can be in control of every aspect of every moment. All exercises are done to control the working muscles to lift against gravity and resistance of the springs and therefore control the movement of the body and the device. The Pilates Method teaches you to be in control of your body and not at their mercy. Hence, not only is learning to control your body, but your mind as well.
