Pilates Fitness Program Developed
by Joseph Hubertis Pilates as far
back as the early 1900's, Pilates
is based upon developing & improving
body posture & flexibility of movement
originally using the resistance of
springs. Pilates can be practised
using specially designed equipment
or performing exercises based on the
Pilates system simply on a mat. Pilates
has spawned many different versions
which are available today. Pilates
fitness programs are available on
video or DVD to use with or without
equipment, for you to follow at home
or you could try your local gym to
see if they run classes there.
Step Fitness Program Step is basically
a form of aerobic exercise involving
stepping on & off a step quite often
to music. You can follow this fitness
program from a video or DVD at home
using a simple piece of equipment
or in a group at your local gym or
recreation centre.
Aerobics Fitness Program Aerobics
is a fitness program in numerous different
formats but basically involves lots
of movement such as arm raises, leg
raises, kicks, stretching, lunging,
bending etc to music. The type & frequency
of movements should depend upon your
current level of fitness. The fitness
program can again be followed at home
using a video or DVD or at classes
