Giants Aubrey Huff reports his body is “ripped” and Pilates will be a key to his 2012 revival

In late August 2010 San Francisco Giants first baseman Aubrey Huff was mired in a slump at the plate and his team was trailing the San Diego Padres for the National League West crown.

Huff’s solution to his problems? Wearing a red, rhinestone-studded thong of course. Huff credits Pilates his thong, and his mother for his key role in the Giants first World Series championship since moving to the Bay Area over 50 years ago.

During the Giants championship parade in San Francisco, Aubrey Huff showed all his lucky charm while speaking in front of the city’s Civic Center and Town Hall…:-)

Huff’s wife is a Pilates instructor.  Before his 2010 World Championship Huff did Pilates three times a week.  His muscles felt better, his back didn’t hurt as much and his general sense of well-being was enhanced.  Then….during the 2011 season , “for some stupid reason, I didn’t do Pilates.”  He proceed to have an awful 2011 season and was called out for poor conditioning by the franchise and probably his wife.

“I think I’m preparing a lot better this off season as far as Pilates,” Huff said “I’m feeling physically better this year. I know I’m making a lot of money to go out and get it done.

“I want to go out this year and do the best I can . All I can do is what I’m doing this off-season (Pilates+) and let the chips fall where they may.” “My body is ripped.”

Why do the rich and famous choose Pilates to enhance their performance? … It works!
