Pilates

[keb]

I have read the posts on this forum that Pilates are good way to increase your flexibility and core strength. My daughters are big advocates and have encouraged me to give it a try. Any recommendations on DVD that fits what male golfers would be looking to gain from the use of Pilates?

I do pilates at least twice a day and it definitely has improve my flexibility and more importantly has kept my back loose and stretched out. I just turned 51 a month ago and I need to keep flexible. I have notice a gain in distance because of the added flexibility.

I dvd I recommend is:

Pilates
beginning mat workout
with Ana Caban

I actually only do the energy work out which takes about 10 minutes and I always feel great after I finish the exercise. I only warning is go easy the first few times because my neck was sore a few times I did the 100's because you keep you neck off the ground for so long. I would recommend breaking the 100's into 50's until you build up your neck muscles. Other than that the exercise are not too difficult and Ana Caban is easy on the eyes.
