Pilates on About

Saturday August 26, 2006
As many people know, Pilates is great for back problems. One main reason for this is that Pilates targets the abdominal muscles for strengthening. Well, About.com now has a Pilates site!! Visit Marguerite Olge, About's new Pilates guide to learn more about this very effective exercise system. For people with chronic back pain, allow me to recommend Marguerite's article entitled Modifications and Safety Tips for Pilates. Also, before you begin Pilates you may wish to prepare your mind and body with my easy breathing-visualization experience geared to help you establish core support.
