DropDown Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 I'm a devotee of Pilates w/equipment (reformer & cadillac). It has toned & slimmed me without bulking up and has given me better posture. I'm thankful I found a studio that has great teachers. This past summer I kept fit with all sorts of water activities; now it's back to Pilates,which I'm thinking of integrating with either kick boxing or swimming a few times a week.

pottedplant Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 I am thinking of switching from yoga to pilates DropDown. I think you have swayed me that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles J. White Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Was jogging last night again, this time someone else joined us. It is much easier to stay with it when not doing it alone, when someone is counting on you. Feels great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pottedplant Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I'm using 9 on the incline now. Feels like I'm back in San Francisco. :^) Good for you redrum!!! I'm up to 10.5 and 3.6 speed. I don't have to spend as much time on that damn thing. Drop Down: I went to pilates and could not walk well for two days. I am going back because I loved it. I don't think I'll be as sore as I did a lot of stretching beforehand. I'm using 9 on the incline now.

Drop Down: I went to pilates and could not walk well for two days. I am going back because I loved it. I don't think I'll be as sore as I did a lot of stretching beforehand. I stay at 2 on the speed for now and may extend that over time. It's a good workout either way. My recent bloodwork was 'A+' (with some high fives from my doc) but still have slightly high blood pressure. I lost 3 pounds over 6 months. Doesn't sound like much but pick up a 3 pound dumbell and it feels like a lot. My doc was happy about that too. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kipper Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 as of feb 1st i have lost 18 pounds on my newest diet. last holiday season i sort of messed up and put about 6 lbs on from the 25 i lost last year--- but this is an ongoing process. cutting out all junk food (mickey d's etc) and all sodapop makes it easier. walking 2 miles at lunch break also helps.

Plantpothead Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I don't have any problem with my weight, must have a good metabolism, or maybe it's that I only eat when I'm hungry and not because it's breakfast/lunch/dinner time. I also take our dog for a walk every morning at about 4am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
