A little advise if u all please...im thinking of adding something to my routine what do u all think?they offer..Pilates,spin,ICE..whatever that is,Tai Chi,yoga,zumba,kick boxing,body blast..not shure what it is.These arent on the same day,I know im goin g to give kick boxing a try but the rest I havent go a clue..yet.Have anyone use any of thes things and how did it work for you???

I love pilates and tai chi....tai chi most of all. I haven't done it in years, but always found it incredibly relaxing as well as good exercise.

For me, both are a great example that you don't always need to move fast or far to get a great work out.
