Should You Buy the Minimax Manual?
Unsure of how to use the Minimax?
This manual will give you a ton of stretching and strengthening exercises with the Minimax on the mat.
There are even some exercises for reformer and a section dedicated to sitting on a chair with the Minimax on the floor.
How is the manual organized?
The manual is organized by position and by target area. For example, inverted on the Minimax (position) with abdominal focus (target area).
Do you need help creating a routine?
This manual goes over individual exercises and has some sample routines.
However, the book, Pilates Exercise Flows for Fitness Professionals, goes over how to flow mat exercises with the Minimax to create routines.
P.S. you do NOT need to be a pro to understand the Pilates Exercise Flows book.
