Pilates: Strong enough for a man, and not only made for a woman!
reformer guysPilates is a comprehensive head-to-toe workout, but its often misidentified as womens exercise. In fact, it might surprise you that Pilates was originally created for men.

Pilates was designed by a German born gymnast and boxer named Joseph Pilates. His exercise system emphasized the development of the core muscle groups (the spine, abdominals, hips and lower back). Many famous male professional athletes, such as Tiger Woods (professional golfer), Jason Kidd (NBA basketball star), Curt Schilling (MLB pitcher) and Ruben Brown (NFL offensive lineman), have added Pilates to their training programs, in order to enhance their strength, coordination and flexibility by developing these core muscle areas.

Eva's Bites: Healthy Recipes by Eva 
Eva Plank
· 2 red peppers
· 2 yellow peppers
· 2 medium zucchinis
· 1 bulb of fennel
· 1 eggplant
· 8 baby leeks
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
· extra virgin olive oil
· 1 large bunch of fresh basil leaves
· 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
· 1 clove of garlic

Heat the barbecue or a griddle pan, put your whole peppers on it, and get them really black on all sides. While still hot, put them in a bowl, cover with foil and leave to cool.

Slice your zucchinis lengthways about ¼ inch thick and do the same with your fennel, reserving the herby tops. Grill the zucchini and fennel together on the griddle pan for about a minute on each side or until nicely charred. You don't want them too black or too raw. Remove to a clean tea towel in one layer, making sure they don't sit on top of each other, otherwise they will steam and go soggy.

Cut the eggplant across into slices ½ inch thick.Chargrill the eggplant slices, turning them 4 times until nicely marked, then remove to the tea towel.

Boil the baby leeks in salted water until they're just cooked. Then drain, rub with a little olive oil, and chargrill them quickly until lightly marked.

Peel the peppers, then tear them up into large strips. Now put all the vegetables into a large bowl.

Take about a quarter of your basil leaves and bash them in a mortar with a good pinch of seasoning until you have a smooth pulp. Add about 8 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and the vinegar, to taste. Pour this over the vegetables and toss quickly so that everything gets coated, then throw in the remaining whole basil leaves. Slice the garlic really thinly to give you a delicate flavour and add to the bowl with the fennel tops. Mix everything together, and serve on a large plate at room temperature. Great with any grilled fish or meat, or as part of an antipasti plate with some toasted bruschetta and some fresh mozzarella.
