Pilates

I know when my daughter was in band a few years she used to rave about these things. I've seen and heard a lot of good things about them, but I'm not sure.

Has anyone met any really awe-inspiring results using the Pilates system?

    i did them all the time 2-3 yrs ago and i had amazing results, but i also walked 5 times a week and used a bow fles 2 times a week. they do give u alot of toning in that middle section which is great.

    Pilates is awesome for core strength, which will help your posture and alleviate back pain, etc. My family (who are all crazy-fit) has a saying, "great abs are made in the kitchen." I teach a Pilates class once a week at our local YMCA, and agree that it helps to flatten your stomach, but until I changed my diet, I didn't have a totally flat stomach.
