Winsor Pilates ~

The key to the Winsor Pilates® program is Mari Winsor's dynamic sequencing technique—an easy-to-follow combination of exercises done in a specific order and rhythm to produce a low-intensity calorie-burning workout that sculpts your body and helps you lose weight and inches. Winsor Pilates does not require any equipment and can be done at home or while traveling. Some people even practice it at work!

Winsor Pilates is based on classic Pilates

The classic Pilates Method is not considered a really effective way to lose weight. It is focused more on core strengthening and balancing the body, which is why it was mostly used only by dancers and athletes. Mari Winsor has taken traditional Pilates and made it much more “cardiovascular”. She uses a system she calls “dynamic sequencing” in which you perform true Pilates movements at a faster pace than normal. The end result is a low-intensity full-body workout that burns quite a lot of calories.

The Winsor Pilates program has proven to be very effective. The full-body workouts tone, strengthen, and stretch just about all the muscles in the body while helping you burn fat at the same time. You will work hard with the Winsor Pilates program! It’s definitely not an easy, “quick fix”. But it will burn fat and help you get a better body quickly and safely. If you’re looking for an effective at-home workout, you should definitely give this one a try.
