For working out at home, a Pilates DVD makes a perfect gift - either for yourself or for someone else! And as this activity has grown more and more popular, so the range of Pilates DVDs has grown, allowing you to practice in the comfort of your own home.
As the range of Pilates DVDs has increased, it has forced those making the products to offer a greater variety of offerings.
No longer are there simply "Introduction to..." types of products. The range of Pilates DVDs currently available includes the following:
-
Back health
- For Dummies
- Pregnancy
- Mat work
- Target specific
- Gym ball
- Oz style
- Beginners
- Flow
- All-in-one
- System 21
- Flexible strength moves
- Body control
- Express
- Perfect body
- Everyday
- Fit Chic
Clearly, whatever your specific needs, there's a product out there to match it! There are two main ways of finding out how good something is. The first is the tried and tested word of mouth - ask your teacher or friends if they can recommend a particular product.
The other alternative is to look at the online reviews for different products. Other customers are a great source of information, so if there are more than a handful of reviews all saying the same thing, it should give you a pretty good indication of the quality.
