A nice workout when time and energy is short. thats funny.... i recalled the pilates workout using the ball and then there was a bonus blast at the end, which i thought was killer. i dont recall four 10 min bonus workouts at all. will have to pull this dvd out and take a look at it again. i also have yoga on the ball in my rental queue. :*carolyn.

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 That's the workout Carolyn. I really liked it and she has such a nice instructing style. I would definitely consider this workout more intermediate than beginner. I might add the 4 bonus routines on the end of a short cardio workout to get some toning in.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 those side kicks leaning on the ball, WOW gets me everytime. it is a great workout, and a good intro to those who want to move pilates from the mat to equipment. great job. kassia Sponsored Link$200,000 mortgage for $660/mo - 30/15 yr fixed, reduce debt, home equity - Click now for info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 Good workout Carolyn! Sounds like the preprogrammed workout was tough. Thanks for the review of Pilates on the ball. I've never heard of this one. Good job for modifying when you needed to.
