Movie Reviews of Pilates Conditioning for Weight Loss

Movie Review: Completely boring and slow paced...
Summary: 2 Stars

This DVD is WAY to slow paced and will probably be useless to everyone but COMPLETE beginners or people completely out of shape. I am a 25 year old male, so I'm probably not the target demographic of home exercise DVDs, but I bought this DVD as a beginner to pilates (and I wasn't in very good shape at all) and it was even boring then.

There is WAY too much time between each exercise. In the full version of the video, she explains all three modifications which takes forever. The DVD has the option of watching the easiest or second easiest modifications alone (which is slightly faster, although she still takes way too long between each exercise), but you can only view the full, non-modified exercises along with the other two. This seems odd, because the more advanced you are at pilates, the more emphasis you should put on flow between exercises... so why isn't there a third option for viewing the non-modified exercises on their own?

The flow of the exercises is further hindered by the odd order of the exercises... Traditional pilates is done in a specific order (to encourage flow and work muscles groups in the most efficient way).

I recently did this video, because I've been doing pilates for a while now and I thought that I might enjoy the video more. With pilates, you are constantly learning how to better engage your powerhouse and make each exercise more focused and effective, so I assumed that maybe I would enjoy it more now that I could really get the most out of each exercise. Not the case...

Unless you are REALLY out of shape or just really want a workout that goes at a snail's pace, this video will probably bore you to tears. Ana Caban and Jillian Hessel both have beginner's pilate dvds that are much better. I would suggest looking into those instead.
