Here's The "Bottom Line" With Weight Loss
Here's "The-Bottom Line" With Weight Loss, if you are committed to losing weight and not just looking for the next miracle diet or exercise fad, Pilates can be a transformative partner in getting you there–and so much further!
Just take a look at all the Client Reviews posted on this page. People just like you!
And, here's the simple truth that they all embraced (that we all sort of know, anyway): To lose weight and keep it off, you need to burn more calories than you consume.
In other words, you need to (1) get your body moving (consciously) and (2) alter your eating habits.
Take on your Pilates practice in this spirit, and we Promise this:
- You Will Build Long, Lean Muscle Mass Without Bulk. Here's where Pilates excels. You will create long, lean muscle mass as you gradually lose weight - no better way to increase your calorie-burning potential.
- You Will Tone And Sculpt Your Body. Pilates gives you back your waistline, regardless of weight lost. You'll change the shape of your body-clothes will fit differently. Because Pilates is a full-body workout, it tones all of your muscles.
- You Will Improve Your Posture. One of the best ways to look and feel thinner is to have a beautiful posture. Pilates creates a leaner look by emphasizing both length and good alignment.
- You'll Regain Deep, Efficient Respiration - Essential to Burn Calories. Breath awareness and deep, "full-body" breathing, is an essential part of Pilates exercise. Besides the huge impact that breath has on one's overall health and stress levels (modern-day life has made many of us into very shallow breathers, literally struggling for air, it can also dramatic effect our body's ability to release excess weight.
- And…You Will Be Reinvigorated with Kitchen Table Inspiration. "Pilates has extended far beyond my workout. It's been a transformation in who I am for myself, in how I take care of myself, and that has naturally extended itself into my kitchen and how and what I eat. This isn't something I even tried to do... it just fell into place as my Pilates practice progressed, and I learned so much more about my body. My attention to my eating patterns and preferences shifted... and I lost 5 pounds! Being able to return to my love of dancing after a long hiatus has meant the world to me." Shelley Graham, Counselor and "Re-inspired" Ballet Dancer.
