VHS 1: In the first part of the program, A.M. Pilates Mat Workout with Pilates master Jillian Hessel (running time: 25 MIN), you wake up and start your day with the gifts of energy and balance. This 25-minute, low-impact mat workout, designed to be performed first thing in the morning, is divided into three separate sections:
Breathing: Start with seated warm-up exercises on a chair to align your body rhythm with your breath.
Conditioning: Follow through with a series of mat routines to strengthen abs, buttocks, legs, and the "powerhouse" - the back and abdominal muscles forming the vital core of the body's strength and its center of gravity.
Centering: Conclude with standing exercises to integrate the floorwork into good vertical alignment and healthy posture; VH2: P.M. Pilates (running time: 29:11), an evening workout taught by certified instructor Ana Cabán. This program, which is designed to unwind tense muscles and soothe the nervous system, is divided into Warm-up, Mat Work, and Calm-and-Relax sections.
