Pilates

I am going to incorperate this into my workout this winter. I hope to find some DVD's in the Library about it. I hear it's very effective.

I know that didn't help.

If instructors are good players should benefit...Should increase flexibility and core stability.

Son's off season program now includes Pilates.

Sorry for my ignorance - but what does this mean?

Pilates is an excercise program - I guess it first took hold on the West Coast. From what I have seen it looks somewhat like yoga - emphasizing balance and holding certain positions (uses muscles that are often ignored). I have always heard that it is a very intense workout. My son (in excellent shape) was already getting a little sore last night (in the hip area). I wonder how the assistant coach who participated is feeling today.

Interesting - it has been around a long time.

I wouldn't classify it as intense...
