First place to check is the Aero pilates website.
The Aero Pilates machines are good for both pilates and strength and whole body training and work outs.
One can find Aero Pilates classes at the 'Studio Samsara Pilates' website. They allow one to download a PDF timetable of the classes. Classes can also be found on 'Aerocise-Pilates'.
First check the actual Stami or Aero Pilates site.
They are different machines created by seperate companies. While both will provide great exercise options the performer 298 is more compatible with the traditional Pilates reformer found in actual Pilates studio's.
The Bugatti is 20 mph slower than the Ultimate Aero which has a top speed of 278 with nitro 298 mph. Prices Bugatti:2.5 million Ultimate Aero $655,440
Go to craigslist.com and search for that item in your area of Chicago.
I would say up to about 6-foot is max.
If you are incorporating the Pilates equipment no, you do not.
The best pilates video is the Pilates for beginners which is 17.99 on amazon.com
Yes, it is a great afforable alternative for in-home Pilates equipment.
To see results Pilates is best when practiced 2-3x per week.
