Pilates Chair Review

Let's check out the Malibu Pilates Chair . . .

If you're like many people looking to get fit, toning your abs, arms, buns, thighs, and legs in the comfort of your own home would be an ideal situation. Ordinary gym memberships are expensive, and access to a dedicated Pilates studio can take an equally demanding toll on the budget.

Pilates equipment designed for home use attempts to solve this problem, and this is the aim of the popular Malibu Pilates Chair.

Pilates have proven to be quite effective in toning the body, developing core muscles, and improving posture. About a decade ago, a Pilates instructor named Carol Krieff opened a studio in Malibu, California. Inspired by the Wunda chair, a staple of traditional Pilates equipment, she developed her own streamlined apparatus. It quickly became the most popular piece of equipment in her studio.

Let's take a closer look at this innovative piece of Pilates equipment . . .

Features

Built with durable and sturdy materials

Adjustable spring resistance offers numerous resistance levels

Easy to adjust, custom split-step pedals

Foldable for convenient storage

Includes 3 Instructional Workout DVDs and a Makeover Manual with Eating Guide

According to customer feedback, using the Malibu Pilates Chair delivers a quality workout comparable to what you might get from using a Wunda chair in a studio. This is partly due to the spring resistance. The springs will require that you concentrate on the movements, ultimately providing better results.

The split-step pedals are another bonus. You can use them to exercise your arms and legs individually, or you can can use them to exercise all of these muscles simultaneously. And they adjust on the fly, which will help you maintain a fast-moving workout for maximum cardio benefits.

The three instructional DVDs included with the package will ensure you perform the proper exercises to take full advantage of the equipment. The first DVD is the "Basic Breakdown," which provides an overview of the chair and kick-starts the workout.

Next is the "Twenty Minute Malibu Pilates Makeover," an invigorating total-body workout designed for people with busy schedules and limited time to exercise.

Another exercise DVD included is the "Total Dream Body Sculpting Workout," a forty-five minute circuit-style session geared for accelerating calorie-burning and weight loss.

You'll also get a bonus DVD by acclaimed instructor Mari Winsor that teaches her sequencing technique, and how it should be used for this particular equipment.

Users of this equipment also love that it folds up. This will help you preserve space when you aren't using it.

It's quite sturdy, too, safe and stable. Well worth a look if you want a quality, affordable Pilates chair for your home.
