A Passion For Pilates

Here it comes again galloping up behind you like a prized racehorse out to compete for the Kentucky Derby!  Summer!  Picnics, 4^th of July celebration, warm lazy days basking in the sun at the beach – screeeeech – the beach!

The beach – that place where you remove most of your clothing and bare your body to the world.  That place where you have to watch all the 18 to 20 somethings strutting their stuff in bathing suits that have less fabric in them than the dinner napkin draped across your thighs.

You’ve tried all the diets.  You’ve crammed down enough protein to open your own meat p0acking business!  You’ve consumed enough grapefruit to save the entire world from scurvy! 

Heck, you even broke down one year and bought a membership to a gym that you attended ONE TIME!  Mixing it up with those same 18 to 20 somethings on their own turf was just too much agony to endure.

What’s a girl (or guy) to do?  Maybe it’s time to try a different approach.  Sure, you might want to cut down on the glazed doughnuts and trade the sour cream for something a little more beneficial like cottage cheese, the light kind.

If you’ve tried every exercise routine known to the civilized world maybe it’s time to take a look at something just a little bit different.  Maybe you need to develop A Passion for Pilates!

Pilates is a totally different approach to exercise than what you may be accustomed to.  Forget about exercising to lose weight and shift your focus to physical activity and exercise that aims to improve the body’s strength and flexibility.

Yep.  Repeat it.  Focus on improving your strength and flexibility.

So how do you do that?  Glad you asked.  You can learn what you need to know by reading A Passion for Pilates!  Take a look at what is available between the lines of this dynamic digital presentation:
