Julie, Barbara and Ellen keep it real with fitness facts and Philly tips. | Disclaimer
HEATHER, athlete and personal trainer: Since my experience with this week’s topic is limited at best, I have enlisted the help of Sue McInereny, group exercise guru and fitness coordinator for the Roxborough YMCA.
With over 20 years experience in the fitness industry, Sue writes, "Pilates is a unique method of body conditioning. This system of exercises was developed over 90 years ago by the late Joseph H. Pilates. Pilates designed more than 500 specific exercises using five major pieces of unique apparatus to develop the body uniformly. His progressions of exercises are still practiced around the world. Pilates utilizes no weights, just mind and body working together from the inside out. This produces leaner, stronger and more flexible muscles, with many other added benefits of balance, control and quality of movement.
Pilates begins at the core, the "power center" from which all other movement patterns are derived. The "core" - abdomen, lower back, and buttocks - is supported and strengthened, enabling the rest of the body to move freely. The fact is that if you have a strong, stable central foundation, then the movements of the extremities will be much more effective and efficient.
Pilates is an excellent addition to any fitness regimen. We invite you to check out a Pilates class or any of our other group exercise classes at Roxborough YMCA, 7201 Ridge Ave. To find a class that fits your busy schedule, check out the Web site at www.roxboroughymca.org. Be sure to ask for Heather or Sue when you come for your free visit!
