Re: CHERYL! WARNING! Exhale Core Fusion Pilates Plus

thanks for the warning...I didn't do them and only really liked the

1st segment, which was planks and pushups. After seeing this, now I

understood what you meant about it being bad for backs when you

reviewed this awhile back. I generally stay away from this kind of

stuff, while the movements look very easy and simple, they are very

deceiving...and if you aren't strong enough or have limitations, you

can get hurt easily I think, at least for me. In my case, I'm just

not strong enough nor flexible enough.

Hi Cheryl,

I'm not a back expert, but I think generally this stuff is bad for anyone - even w/ a "healthy' back - when I described it to my chiro that is what he said - (he didn't see the exercise, just my description of it).

I *think* I have a relatively strong core and this one totally screwed up my back!
