Pilates

[whatsahoya]

I heard that it strengthen the bones and joint. How different do you feel before started pilates and after?

No idea on the relative strength of my bones, but my joints are definitely much better for it. My shoulders, hips, and knees feel consistently better, and my recovery time from hard lifting has dropped dramatically.

Most exercise programs work on things that are not practical, I cannot speak for Pilates since I have never done it. I like the philosophy of former SFOD-D Operator Pat McNamara. He does exercises that are practical, moves that are normally used in his former job as a Delta Operator. Check out some of his videos. I want to perform exercises that help what I do on a daily basis and nothing impractical. Just because I am sore after the workout does not necessarily make it useful to me.
