Description
Pilates During Pregnancy with Niece Pecenka - An inpiring Pilates based routine adapted for busy women in all trimesters who want to feel fit, healthy, and fabulous. Pilates requires you to move consciously - using the breath to revitalize and energize - something you will need to depend on during and after childbirth. Every movement in Pilates emanates from the "center" - helping you focus on those muscles necessary for labor and delivery. This routine is comprised of two distinct sections to make the most of you time. Section I - abdominal and breath work = 15 minutes Section II - side leg series, lower body work = 30 minutes Sections I and II can be combined for a longer workout depending upon your time and energy level. You will need a minimum of three blankets, folded and stacked. So Let's Move! |

A good, solid workout! by Sarah Schultz (Alberta, Canada)  4 Stars
November 05, 2009
I have enjoyed doing pilates more than yoga as a prenatal workout, this gives a very solid workout - you can definitely feel the burn. I recommend to have a bit of a background in pilates before tackling this - especially the farther along you are in your pregnancy. I started doing this in my 3rd trimester, and even having a pilates background I found it hard to keep up with the instructor's pace. I only to the buns/thighs/side-lying 21 minute section as I don't feel comfortable doing ab/core work this far along in my pregnancy. I also own 10 Minute Solution: Prenatal Pilates and do prefer her workouts to this DVD's. This DVD has a very intense workout, but it only targets your lower body and core. In "10 Minute Solution: Prenatal Pilates" there are different segments that are only 10 minutes each and include some weight work for upper body toning too. I do recommend both!

Good for the second time around. by SH  5 Stars
October 13, 2009
After the birth of my first child, I got away from exercise. Now that I'm pregnant with my second, I'm determined to get that exercise in! This DVD was great for that purpose. It isn't long, I can squeeze it in after bath time, during nap time, or even while my son is quietly playing next to me. As a newbie it was challenging to complete, but I quickly built the strength to finish the workout. The instructor was pleasant and encouraging. And as with most pilates, you get out what you put in and can always go farther into the stretch as you build muscles. I highly recommend it.

Fantastic by Jennifer L. Handy (San Diego, CA) 5 Stars
September 18, 2009
I've used the Pilates During Pregnancy dvd several times since I purchased, and I love it. It took me a while to find one that I actually wanted to purchase, and I'm very happy that I chose this one. It's great for women in all stages of pregnancy and any level of pilates. I had never done pilates before, but I plan to continue doing it throughout my pregnancy and after. Definitely a great buy!

Great! by A. Silke McCance 5 Stars
September 12, 2009
I have this to a friend of mine who is pregnant. She absolutely loves it! She tells me especially the side series is a killer. I'm planning on buying this for myself when I'm pregnant.

Great work out by Jaebee (Invercargill, New Zealand) 5 Stars
September 10, 2009
I noticed changes within a short space of time with this dvd ... although now i've discovered the pilates DVD by lizbeth garcia which I almost prefer more but both are great work outs. I found I couldnt do the abdominal section as it was uncomfortable/painful
