Strengthen Your Core With Pilates For Dancers DVD

-

I have been compensated in the form of a gift card/money/coupon and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free. All opinions expressed are mine and honest in nature.

I've had several running injuries throughout the years, and most of them have been related to my lack of core strength. And I will be the first to tell you that I pretty much hate working my core.

But I know the importance of having a strong core, so I'm trying to make core work a staple in my routine. And Pilates for Dancers is one or the most comprehensive step by step Pilates DVDs that I have ever seen.


If you were looking for a fast-paced rush and get it done Pilates workout, this DVD is not for you. Instead this DVD is a step by step methodical, instructional, absolutely awesome demonstration, controlled work out. I am by no means an expert on Pilates. But I do know that with most exercises I have a tendency to rush the poses to pretty much just hurry up and get it done. It's my nature. It's my personality. It's just who I am which is probably why I truly do not enjoy strength training and ab work. 

But the Pilates For Dancers DVD is filled with controlled Pilates movements. I could not rush through the movements. I learned correct positioning and how to control each motion. Even Lil Man got in on the action. Because the instructions were told step-by-step, he too was able to follow along and do some Pilates with me this morning.


I would consider the Pilates For Dancers DVD to be a comprehensive Pilates workout if you watch it from start to finish.

This DVD also has scene selection so you can choose certain exercises if you don't want to do the entire DVD. Overall I am extremely pleased with the Pilates For Dancers DVD.


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Keeping My Sanity Through Sickness And The Holidays With Exercise

 Well, when the stomach bug hits it's stop drop and clean up the puke. Lil Man has had it bad. I mean bad. I had to take him to the ER this week because he literally couldn't keep anything in. He's missed school. I've missed work, and everything has just been put on hold. Talk about holiday stress! At one point I touched my forehead to feel something only to find out that it was dried vomit. And no, not my own. I kid you not peeps, it's been a rough week!

Thankfully, I had already finished my Christmas shopping. I just need a few last minute things (wrapping paper for the big guy), and some odds and ends. But if that doesn't happen, then you know, it is what it is.

I haven't left the house in 5 days other than to take Lil Man to the ER or to the doctor. So today, I told Hubby that I just had to get outside to get some fresh air and clear my lungs of the stench of sickness. So I grabbed

How Gixo Is Changing How I Workout

Truth time - I've struggled a little with the transition back into the work force. I LOVE my job. But I went through a period of feeling very disconnected. And the last thing that I wanted to do was workout alone. So of course I turned to social media and asked if anyone in my area wanted to run/workout with me. Crickets. Yep, that's basically all that I got - crickets.

And then I got an email to try an app called Gixo. It's live guided fitness classes. I thought why not, and I signed up for a free trial.

Best.App.Ever

I didn't know what to expect,

How I Am Incorporating Alert Caffeine Gum Into My Fitness Routine

Thank you Alert Caffeine Gum for sponsoring this post. All opinions and experiences are my own.

 Anyone else struggling with getting back into a routine after being off for the holidays? I know I have. Add in that Lil Man was sick an entire week before Christmas and daily naps became the norm, I'm really struggling to make it through a normal day.

Although we haven't gone back to school yet, Hubby is back to work. And that means if I want to get in a workout or at least one without company and interruptions, I have to get up early and workout before Hubby goes to work. And the rest of the day is the usual go go go.

Thankfully I've had the opportunity to try Alert Caffeine Gum. 1 piece of Alert Gum is about the equivalent of a half a cup of coffee. (And for me that means no jitters). It's just enough ooomph to give me the boost that I need.
