Developing Your Pilates Power Gym

™

Workout

The choices you make about the frequency (how often),
the duration (how long), and intensity (how hard) at
which you workout, will directly influence your results.

Before beginning any workouts on the Pilates Power
Gym

™

exerciser, you should first determine your current

fitness level. The following are guidelines that you can
use to determine your fitness level, but remember these
are just guidelines. You must always listen to your body.
Start out at a level that is comfortable to you and
progress sensibly.

Beginner

– No previous exercise experience,

or have not exercised in a long time.

Intermediate

– Have been exercising regularly

for three months or more.

Advanced

– Have been exercising regularly for

six months or more.

How Often, How Long, How Hard

Beginners

should start out slowly and perform only as

many exercises as you are able to do with good form
and technique. Your Pilates Power Gym

™

System

includes the Pilates Power Gym Workout

™

DVD. The

DVD includes two complete workouts: The Pilates
Workout and The Strength Training Workout. Either of
the workouts are appropriate for a beginning exerciser.
Choose one of the workouts and start by doing that
workout (or as much of the workout as you can
comfortably perform) three times a week. Your goal is
to complete one workout, three times a week, with
good form.

I

ntermediates

should strive to complete one Pilates

Power Gym

™

Workout every other day. Once you can

comfortably complete this workout with good form and
technique, you may increase intensity by adding Tension
Cords or increasing the incline of the Glideboard.

Advanced

should strive for a long term goal of

completing the Pilates Power Gym

™

Workout most days

of the week. To increase the challenge of your workout,
you may add Tension Cords and/or increase the incline
of the Glideboard. Remember, always work out and
progress at a pace that is comfortable to you, and make
sure you can complete all of the repetitions of each
exercise with good form and technique.

Remember, if you would like a VHS tape of the
workout, please refer to page 4 for ordering
information.
