The gym where we go offered a Pilates class with the machines. I never took it because it was way to expensive. Spinning (indoor cycling) and other classes are included in your membership, but pilates was extra. If I remember right, it was $125/week or something outrageous like that. It sounded like a really good workout though and would like to have tried it.
If you get the machine, let me know how you like it.

I wouldn't waste money on the machine. All you need is the big rubber ball, the stretch band and a good dvd. My daughter has been doing pilates for a few months. I tried it once....wanted to die! I didn't even finish it. But it is an excellent workout.

I really need to exercise, but I just don't do it alone. I love exercising with a friend or with a group, I'm just not going to pay to go someplace to exercise when I could do it at home. I just need to get off my butt and do it.

I've never liked to exercise. Now, I have an auto immune disease and I can't do much in the way of physical activity. One of my docs suggested mild, beginer pilates. HUH! I couldn't have done that stuff before I got sick, forget now!

I have a treadmill for the winter months, and summer we are walking every chance we get, i grab my baby and off we go, i think pushing a 30 lb baby is building my arm muscles too.. I love being outside, it also gives me a chance to see some of my new neighbors.

When I was in high shcool I started to loose a lot of weight. I was watching what I was eating and was going to the track and walking and jogging every day. For the first time in my life I had a body!!! So Now that I am all stretched out and getting old"er" I am trying to loose some weight by walking again. So far so good! I also have a treadmill that has not moved to the basment because it was only being used for hanging clothes on.LOL I guess whatever gets you moving is good. If you get the machine let us know how things go.
