It's time to throw out fear and worry about an Avian flu pandemic or, for that matter, any health pandemic. Preparation should include focusing on total health (immune system) while also implementing a plan of attack.

Many people use it to tone their abs and improve their posture but, in reality, Pilates can do much more than that. In fact, when combined with an aerobic "cardio" exercise component (e.g., jogging or Spinning) Pilates can provide you with a fantastic full-body conditioning workout!Pilates Exercises for Strength-TrainingMany Pilates exercises are great muscle-toners that work large muscle groups beyond just the abs and lower back. The Plank position, for example, effectively works the chest and triceps muscle groups. Leg kicks work the glute and hamstring muscles very well. Free squats are one of the best lower-body exercises around, working the quadriceps, the hamstrings, and the glutes. And don't think these are "sissy" strength-training exercises. Many of the world's top martial artists practice them on a daily basis to toughen their bodies and reduce the chance of getting hurt.Pilates EquipmentWhen it comes to workout equipment, it's hard to beat Pilates devices like the Reformer and Wunda chair.
