Special Offer to Help Riders Prepare for the 2008 Friends for Life Bike Rally:

Considering the hours you'll spend on your bike this summer, it's important to have good form while you ride. Your legs will work hard peddling all those miles and your muscles will need lots of oxygen to fuel your motion. Learning to stabilize your body and control your breath are important elements to include in your training routine as you prepare for the trip.

Inner Hero is proud to support your journey by offering regsitered participants a FREE PILATES DROP-IN CLASSES in our Winter and Spring program. Choose the class that best suits your fitness level & experience. Visit www.innerhero.com/fr_classes.html for class descriptions and schedule.

Call Tracy at 416-252-4269 or email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it with the subject line “bike rally” to take advantage of this special offer! (Be sure to include the full name you are registered under in your email.)

Pilates is an effective mind-body exercise program that can help you:

• build strength in the muscles that hold your legs in the proper position while you peddle;
• develop deep breathing skills that feed your muscles, assist your efforts and lessen the pain of lactic acid buildup;
• reduce the likelihood of repetitive strain injuries;
• strengthen your abs to protect your lower back;
• correct your posture to minimize neck & shoulder strain;
• safely improve your flexibility and joint mobility;
• calm your body when the physical stress challenges your spirit;
• sleep well to repair your body after a long ride.
