What Pilates Reformer DVD To Own Is An Important Investment In Your Body's Future Well Being

The Ultimate Pilates Exercise Machine You Can't Live Without If You're Serious About Your Fitness

There are many good quality dvds for Pilates exercise. A Pilates reformer dvd in particular is becoming more popular as more people study Pilates and make the choice to workout at home. Being prepared and finding the right Pilates exercise machine dvd to exercise to is imperative for a quality home reformer workout.

A good alternative to the machine is a stability ball exercise intermediate program that simulates basic moves often performed on a Reformer. Follow along with an instructional DVD to achieve the full benefit.

If you own an Allegro Reformer, made by Balanced Body, you have a choice of Pilates reformer dvds. Their Allegro Reformer DVD series is the obvious choice starting with level one. They progress all the way through to level six.

But beware: only levels 1-3 are produced by Balanced Body. Levels 4-6 are produced by Bally’s Total Fitness.

Personally, I would opt for dvds made by Pilates trained people, not one made by a big commercial gym. Admittedly I have not seen these dvds, but this would be my suggestion.

STOTT PILATES® seems to put out new exercise dvds every year making them a leader in the Pilates industry. One of their Pilates exercise reformer dvd, Essential Reformer for instance, is well produced and very clearly represented.

It's made for their studio reformer, but can also be used for any home Pilates exercise machine reformer you own.

The STOTT PILATES always produces safe and effective dvds, but they are a bit dry and not the most interesting to watch over and over. But you are in good hands, that is for sure.

Polestar has dvds for conditioning techniques on the studio reformer. Polestar has been known for their work with physical therapists and rehab centers, so their dvds are very well thought out and safe.

Polestar was created by Brent Anderson, a physical and occupational therapist, and Elizabeth Larkam, a Feldenkrais specialist and Pilates queen. You are in good hands, but their dvds are very education based and don’t always have a good flow for home workouts.

When looking for some Pilates exercise dvds, remember these key points:

• look for one that is related to the method of Pilates you study

• find one that offers both instruction and flow of sequence

• chose one you'll be willing to watch many times over

• always select a dvd with a name you can trust

Most importantly, never embark on any Pilates reformer dvd without first receiving private instruction from a qualified instructor. The monetary investment can be high for home equipment, but more importantly, you must make sure you are executing the exercises correctly in order to achieve the best results.

If you are ready to tackle the expense and time it takes to have a Pilates home gym , then take the time to find the right dvd. Working out to one is not for everyone. It’s the same workout very time. That can be boring! But if you are motivated to do it on your own, then go for it!

A Pilates reformer dvd for home workouts on your personal Pilates exercise machine can only ensure that you’ll be getting more Pilates in your life! Now that’s a good thing.

Workouts For Teens

Making your teen workout fun is the trick

What mother doesn't want a son or daughter to become for active? Today teenagers seem permanently fixed to cell phones, iPods and video games as their social rite of passage.

Obesity in children is on the rise and shows no signs of slowing down. To many parents getting a child interested in physical activity can be a monumental undertaking.

Teen workouts should be fun. Exercising promotes confidence. Pilates exercises for teenagers help strengthen muscles, increases flexibilty and gives the child more body awareness.
