I have been advised to do pilates to help tone up my stomach area.
Does this form of exersise actually help this area and has anyone had any results from doing this?
RE: Pilates for the stomach area????
From my basic understanding of pilates, it is all about core strength, so in brief, pilates focuses on the stomach area all the time. Sharon/Spinal Music teaches pilates so can expand on it, I'm sure.
HP to Sharon, come in, Sharon!

Hi Tillymint,
It really does and it does it fairly rapidly if you are doing it correctly. It takes a while to get all the things going at the same time when you are new to it but it does not take long to see results.
I just posted something with some dvd names on another thread
Good luck

hi Tillymint. As Darrensays, I'm a Pilates teacher and I can confirm that Pilates targets the stomach area as well as emphasising flexibility, good breathing patterns, strength and co-ordination. It won't get rid of fat though as it's not particularly aerobic.
