Denise Austin
is a peppy, chirpy, popular fitness personality who has starred in
countless exercise videos throughout the years. She has jumped on the
Pilates bandwagon and produced a few programs based on its principles
and techniques. To Pilates purists, however, it is clear that this
method of exercise is not her area of
expertise.
There are
effective stretching and toning exercises within, but these workouts
are more for those who aren't too concerned about learning proper
Pilates form. She does keep you moving and motivated,
though.
Pilates for
Every Body is supposed to be designed to be low-impact and easy so that
anyone can complete the Pilates exercises no matter what their fitness
level. Whether or not this is indeed true seems to be up to debate. It
may in fact be a bit too challenging for beginners. The video contains
a 45 minute exercise routine designed to strengthen and tone the shape
of your entire body. It focuses on the abdominal core and all movement
flows around the center of the body. You'll learn the correct Pilates
form, proper breathing techniques, and mental focus to strengthen your
back muscles, improve flexibility, and tone your abs.
