-- Entrepreneur Magazine, 2005 Hot List
What is IM=X (pronounced IMX)?
IM=X stands for Integrated Movement Xercize. It's an elite fitness program that
marries the muscle toning and lengthening benefits of pilates with elements of
strength and cardio training to increase flexibility, endurance and muscle tone,
while strengthening the spine and abdominal core.
How does IM=X differ from Pilates?
IM=X is a cross-conditioning system that includes pilates moves but adds
resistance training and plyometric jumps for a more athletically oriented
workout. IM=X pilates programs can be targeted to specific populations (i.e.
athletes, seniors, back pain, pregnancy...); or tailored for a specific focus
(i.e. Lower Body Workout, Interval Training Workout, Stretch Workout, Basics,
Upper Body Workout and more...) The variation within IM=X makes it possible to
address everyone from the "couch potato" to the professional athlete. IM=X
certifications and programs update the original pilates (developed 70 years ago)
to reflect the changes in exercise science. For this reason, IM=X has been
described as "next evolution of Pilates."
