Effective and enjoyable workout January 25, 2007

This has all the important aspects right. The exercise regimen has helped me loosen up and build strength after a serious injury. The movements are varied with several related movements to address muscle groups, but with only a few reps on any specific movement I haven't gotten sore, but am developing strength and muscle tone.
Maria Leone is pleasant -- she's nice to spend time with 3 times per week.
This program is most suitable for regular people who want to build strength and flexibility. A super-athlete would probably want a more rigorous program.

I find this dvd fun and relaxing to use. After my first session, I was so sore I had to wait about 3 days to try again. Fortunately, the workout is so enjoyable I eagerly anticipated my next pilates session with this dvd. After just two weeks I have grown stronger and feel more lithe and agile (in other words, graceful). Movement has become a joy again.
Maria Leone has a pleasant personality, she's not irritatingly peppy or bossy; her instructions are easy to follow yet the excersizes are challenging. I highly recommend Pilates on the Go - On the Ball for beginners who need to regain their physical confidence and strength.

This is a great pilates based workout on the ball ,I was surprised no one reviewd this product and there weren't even a picture so I decided to buy it based upon reviews on videofitness.com (I purchased it at a cheaper price at deepdiscountdvd).
The dvd quality is great and Maria Leone performs the workout at an outdoors location next to a pool and there's a beautiful landscape of green hills. Maria's instruction is clear and easy to follow , the workout starts with a little warm up with some bouncing on the ball which was really fun, afterwards there are some pilates abs based moves with the ball which were familiar from other ball workouts , there's a fun exercise in which while lying on your back , you throw the ball and have to catch it between your legs, also theres some bridge variations on the ball
, back extensions , short sidework for the legs and some pushups
the workout ends with some very nice stretches.The workout is about 40 minutes. After the workout I felt calm and centered , this is not the most challenging workout you'll find so I would say it's good for intermediates and advanced people who want an easier workout, I wouldn't recommend it for people with no experience working out on the ball or that are not in good shape.
I'm a pilates instructor myself and I would definitely recommend
this dvd.
