Pilates is a physical fitness (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_fitness) system developed in the early 20th century by Joseph Pilates (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Pilates) in Germany (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germany). Pilates called his methodContrology because he believed that his method uses the mind to control the muscles.Pilates is a body conditioning routine that helps to not only build flexibility, but also strength, endurance, and coordination in the legs, abdominals, arms and back.

Paddle Boarding The sport (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sport) benefits athletes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sportsperson)with a strong 'core' workout. SUP'ing is popular at warm coastal climates (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate) is gaining in popularity as celebrities are sampling the sport, and cross-over athletes are training with SUP. Another reason for the rise in popularity of stand up paddleboarding is that, unlike surfing, paddleboarding is very easy to learn. Within one hour you can become very comfortable in the water and on your board. Stand up paddleboarding is also more popular with women because of their lower center of gravity, women are more often skilled at paddleboarding than men.
