I recently took one of Crunch Gym's newest classes — Killer X, an intense bootcamp-style class. As soon as the class started, the instructor wasted no time laying into us.

Suddenly I was reliving the horror of high school P.E. The Read more
I prefer Pilates and dance classes over high-intensity workouts, but a few weeks ago, I decided to try out my gym's bootcamp class.

You can imagine my shock when I entered a room full of beefy men and started sweating profusely within the first five Read more

The American College of Sports Medicine recently released its predictions on the hottest fitness trends for next year. For the first time in three years, Pilates did not make the list. Fitness experts cite the expense as one of the reasons the popularity of Pilates is waning. The large and costly equipment, like the Reformer and the Cadillac (even the name sounds pricey), of Pilates drives the Read more
While hiking in the Sequoia National Forest recently, I was inspired by a post from the Get Fit For 2010 community group. FitSugar reader caffeinecaptain adds variety to her workout by turning a nearby playground into an outdoor gym. I thought, "what the heck, I'm turning this hike into my own mini boot camp!" By the time I reached the end of the trail, I was feeling pretty worked. I was also Read more

You can put your well trained Pilates posture Read more
