There it was purely on the matt with these elastic bands.

There are a few kinds of machine, this being the one I am most familiar with. Bands can be tightened to adjust resistance, the seat slides, you hold the bands, etc.<BR/><A HREF="http://www.rnews.com/images_story/Pilates.jpg" REL="nofollow">Pilates machine</A>Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04014351759393921274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11083160.post-1132407150038661202005-11-19T08:32:00.000-05:002005-11-19T08:32:00.000-05:00Machines?

But one thing I do remember is feeling absolutely infused with energy afterwards.

In my opinion, just like Yoga only with the resistance of machines and equipment. <BR/><BR/>Mers - yes I have a pic of that, we did it last time. She called it the prayer pose. Perhaps there's more than one of them...Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04014351759393921274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11083160.post-1132383704337656732005-11-19T02:01:00.000-05:002005-11-19T02:01:00.000-05:00I'm probably not calling it by the right name, but...I'm probably not calling it by the right name, but it's the one where you stand on one foot with the other resting on your thigh. <BR/><BR/>I envy people who are agile.

So I tried Pilates and much preferred it as it seemed to be gentler on the joints and tougher on the muscles- and the pain in the working muscles was beyond belief! Haven't done any in a while however.
