Yeah that happen to me too, when I first started dancing my kicks were really low but as I started stretching more they got higher now people are just plain old freaked out about it

I'm a big fan of pilates too, that plus a good cardio work out. Although I was thoroughly pleased that my stamina has increased since I started dancing again....still get thoroughly out of breathe but it's getting easier! As for the flexibility, I do lots of pilates, even as part of my gym work out and my kicks are almost as high as they were 10years ago! Cannot recommend pilates enough!

Here is a tip for better flexibility.....Warm up before you workout, stretch, workout and stretch after you work out. You gain the most felxibility when you stretch/cooldown

I actually haven't tried pilates but from what I've heard its very effective. I'm doing ChaLean Extreme program at the moment but after I'km finished I will def try it.

I love Pilates :) Great for core strengthening, also work out 3 times a week at the gym, but I vary the type of cardio I do-I also do weights for strength

Good point. You can also get sick from training too hard and to much, its called over training lol.

I know this is sort of a late reply but I would definitely say take it easy with exercise post illness. I always used to push myself too much when exercising after I was sick because I was so anxious to get back to it. I'd end up sometimes getting sick again! I'd say starting off with a moderate workout and then work your way back up to where you were.

Wait recovering from the flu? Sorry I'm a bit confused about the question.
