4 Awesome Pilates <\/strong>Moves<\/strong> for Your Total Gym<\/strong>
<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hey, Total Gym Team! It\u2019s Master Trainer JayDee back to help you get the most out of your Total Gym. This blog, and several blogs to follow, will show you how you can benefit from the wonderful discipline of Pilates.<\/p>\n

Basically, your Total Gym is a Pilates reformer! Yes, you own the machine that millions of Pilates enthusiasts pay big bucks to use. The main difference is that the reformer uses springs for resistance, and our Total Gyms use gravity and our own body weight.\u00a0 Both get the job done perfectly, and in a very Functional, Safe, and Versatile method.<\/p>\n

Here is Joseph Pilates\u2019 Philosophy in a nutshell:<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If you strengthen, stretch, and stabilize all the muscles that support your spine – the rest of your body, and all of its movements, will fall into place.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I find it hilarious that Joseph Pilates was a man; he developed his entire discipline working with men, but women tend to be the ones who are smart enough to benefit from it!<\/p>\n

Getting certified in Pilates 21 years ago is actually the reason I bought my first Total Gym. My body had broken down from years of playing sports and teaching die-hard, high-impact fitness classes. My wife dragged me kicking and screaming into Pilates, and it eventually returned my body to its proper balance and took me out of pain. I was hooked!<\/p>\n

By purchasing the Total Gym, I could train my personal training clients and<\/em><\/strong> my Pilates clients on the same piece of equipment. It was a no-brainer when opening my home studio. It saved me a ton of space, two tons of money, and all my clients love it!<\/p>\n
