Happy Monday, everyone. A great way to start off the morning is with a healthy dose of exercise. I go to Pilates every morning at Natural Pilates in Beverly Hills. It is the best Pilates studio around. In addition to Pilates, they also offer spin classes.

To add some cardio to your routine, we also have Spinning classes! These classes are comprised of approximately 45 minutes of fat-burning cardio to great music followed by 15 minutes of stretching. This is great for shaving off the pesky couple of pounds that just won’t budge!
Â
The fundamentals of the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® consist of a totally new exercise system, using GYROTONIC® principles as the basis to exercise the musculature while mobilizing and articulating the joints. The uniqueness of the system is that it stretches and strengthens at the same time with minimal effort, while it increases the range of motion and developing coordination.Â
Â
The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® is served by a series of specially designed exercise equipment, which was built around the human body with all regards to total freedom in movement and no restriction to speed and versatility and would enhance rather than distract from the awareness of coordination, strength, and flexibility. Unlike most conventional exercise machines, where linear or isolated movement patterns are performed, which creates uncoordinated strength, the patented and trademarked GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® emphasizes multiple joint articulations, strengthening the surrounding ligaments including the attachments.
Â
The motion patterns are natural, turbulence-free, and pure, with no interruption, creating a bridge between contraction and extension. Through the rotating movement patterns of the joints, a balanced support system for the skeleton is created.
Â
The exercises are performed through spherical awareness and circularity of movement, enabling the user to perform under permanent guidance and variable controlled resistance, real sports simulation with no limitation to speed and range of motion.
Â
Through uniform and permanent resistance, meaning through all the changes of directions and as well within the pivot axis, the concentric and eccentric forces exerted by the involved muscle groups are maximized and evenly distributed between agonist and antagonistic muscle groups.
