Video Description
Strengthen your body and maintain muscle tone during pregnancy safely and effectively with this fantastic UK physiotherapist endorsed DVD. The workouts are sensibly paced, allowing you to keep good technique as you get larger - with an emphasis on precision. If you are new to Pilates or want to undertake a simple but safe maintenance programme whilst pregnant this DVD is for you. With a warm up, a workout for early pregnancy and one for later pregnancy, you can create a stronger body to cope with the physical changes whilst developing safe posture and movement.
A section on immediate post birth exercises also teaches you what you can do immediately after birth to regain muscle control and tone your abdominal muscles. Includes pelvic floor exercises.
Users feedback is that the DVD has eradicated back pain, prevented recurrences of pubic pain as experienced previously and aided control during labour.
A separate award winning and more challenging specific Post Natal product, 'Pilates for Mums' is also available from Enhance with physiotherapist approval.

A Good Investment,
By A Customer
This review is from: Pilates In Pregnancy [DVD] (DVD)
I hadn't done any pilates before being pregnant and was used to a much more vigorous exercise regime. The instructions are clear and concise and make performing the exercises both easy and enjoyable. I was very keen to be able to start my normal exercises as soon as possible after giving birth and I'm sure that following this program helped me maintain a much higher level of muscle tone in those important core areas, than I could have done any other way. I did get back to the gym very soon after and am eternally grateful. This DVD was definitely a good investment.

Good way to maintain strength and flexibility during pregnancy,
This review is from: Pilates In Pregnancy [DVD] (DVD)
I am now well into my fifth month of pregnancy and am really glad I bought this DVD. As well as a warm up it contains two main sections - one for early stage pregnancy before you have a bump and one for later on. In the first few months of my pregnancy I continued to attend my regular Pilates classes and didn't use the DVD so much but by month three had to give the classes up and the DVD has really come into its own. If you haven't done Pilates before, don't expect a high impact workout. What you get is a set of exercises to help maintain strength in your core muscles and to maintain good flexibility and posture during your pregnancy. I'm really enjoying it and think doing it regularly will help me to get back into shape more quickly afterwards. I'm definitely going to order Lindsay Jackson's Pilates for Mums for after the baby is born.

pilates in pregnancy,
By A Customer
This review is from: Pilates In Pregnancy [DVD] (DVD)
I am very pleased with this DVD, having been to pilates classes prior to pregnancy, I found this very easy to follow and relaxing. It is not about getting sweaty and breathless but about focusing on what your inner core muscles can do to support your body during pregnancy. I would recommend it to anyone but especially pregnant women suffering with a bad back, as I do. I can not stand up straight due to a prior condition but once I have followed the routine I find myself in much better alignment and more supple. I like the way the DVD is split into sections depending on your stage of pregnancy including a section for after the birth. It may seem slow and that you are not actually achieving anything but if you stick with it, concentrate on breathing at the right time and contracting your muscles it will be worth it. Very pleased with this purchase.
