My January issue of Pilates Style magazine arrived a few days ago. This is the big issue I look forward to every year because it has a huge section on Pilates resources - training programs, equipment, media, etc. But they went beyond the ordinary this year and included articles to meet just about anyone's interest. Sure there is the requisite flat abs workout, but along with that there are human interest stories, health tips, an article on Breema body work, and an article on the Franklin Method among others. They really went for it -- big and glossy.

Of course the thing is also jam packed with ads, but you have to make money somehow. My only complaint is that it is so obvious that Pilates Style mostly only promotes companies that advertise with them, and I find that too insular. For example, they failed to mention one of the largest free resources for Pilates information and exercise instructions online (well, really!). hmpff.

Nevertheless, January Pilates Style is a good issue, and I'll suggest that you might enjoy crashing out on the with it couch for a while. Then, when you feel rejuvenated and inspired you can get up and actually do some Pilates! In fact, you could choose exercises and routines from the big selection of exercise instructions I have here.

By the way, I don't get anything for plugging Pilates Style. I've just been finding that the magazine has been improving over the years.

Compare Prices on Subscriptions (yes, I get like a penny or so if you use my pricegrabber link, but it's on the newsstand too)
