Subject: [erctrisquad] Pilates for Triathletes

Pilates Survey
Have you heard of Pilates before?   Yes
Are you interested in trying it?    Yes

About Me
In addition to some serious running and less serious triathlon training, I am a qualified
and experienced Pilates teacher and personal trainer.
I am looking to set up Pilates based classes aimed specifically at catering for the particular
needs of runners & triathletes. The classes would be entirely separate from &
complimentary to your existing training – I'm not taking on the role of coach! The main
objectives are injury prevention and performance improvement through improved
flexibility, body alignment and muscle balancing.
To help me to help you better I've put together a short questionnaire to identify problem
areas and preferred class times. Please fill in and email direct back to me on
jennyn101@hotmail.com. Feel free to add any general comments.

2. Are you prone to particular injuries (please specify body part & nature of injury)?YES - CALVES, BACK AND NECK

muscle stiffness? YES - HIP FLEXORS, CALVES, TRUNK

when running or cycling?OH YES - ALL OF THEN ON BIKE

be separate? MIXED IS FINE
