What are the benefits and cons of doing pilates and/or Yoga?

mrr86 asked:


I want to buy an exercise video, because I want to tone up and lose some weight. I go to the gym, but I just started, and I would like to be able to fit something in on the days I cannot make it to the gym. I have a chubby stomach, and big thighs. Do you recommend I try a pilates video, or a yoga video? Or maybe you have other suggestions?

Rock*Star Barbie asked:


Well I am looking for yet another way to exercise and diet and was told about Pilates and Yoga and decided to try them both but I didn’t know much about it and per research didn’t tell much. If you have done either of the two please let me know tips, advice, etc..Thanks!!!

animallover asked:


I am looking for a non-fussy exercise that I can do at home. I would like to sweat a little from it, but the main thing is that I exercise my muscles safely (not interested in muscle building). I have tried a little bit of yoga, and I really liked how I felt afterwards. I really like the stretching, and breathing aspects. But, I am a Christian, and the spiritual aspect of yoga;the fact that it’s leaning toward Eastern religion, bothers me (no offense to those who believe it). Thanks for your answers!

BT asked:


What’s the difference between Pilate’s and Yoga? I practice Pilate’s one in a while when I am stressed or when my body is in pain :/. Yoga seems to be similar but what’s the difference.

Also which one is your favorite and are any good DVDs you would recommend to do at home?

Sarah asked:


The gym I am going to start going to has fitness classes in both pilates and yoga. What’s the general difference between the two and which one is more effective?

socalgal1234 asked:


I’m looking to become a yoga/pilates instructor and I’d like to work around 20 hours a week. I’m wondering if most pilates and yoga instructors can work about this much? I am looking at most club schedules and most of the instructors are only teaching once or twice a week. Do yoga/pilates teachers have to work at several clubs in order to get this many hours?

The cool asked:


I want to lose weight, pilates and yoga helps, but what are some good dvds and tapes?

Kristen H asked:


Any good albums you listen to at home to do pilates, meditate and do yoga? I haven’t do this for my research for my novel, since I’m not flexible to do yoga and pilates. But any preferences of any music to do it to, from pilates and yoga instructors, and any one who takes the classes? I’ve listed Michael Bublé in my novel. Would he be good too?

~ShineOn~ asked:


Also is there a good beginners dvd to try out?

I have never tried either just want a change from my workout routine now. Any advice would be great Thank you : )
