Pure Pilates

Ultimate Body Sculpting

Pilates is the low-impact exercise and movement form designed to strengthen and lengthen muscles safely and without adding bulk, resulting in good posture and great body shape. In this book Michael King presents the "pure", authentic, original matwork exercises, with step-by-step photographs to show precise technique and the exact range of movement. Modifications to the pure technique are shown to make moves easier for the beginner, and charts and programs offer advice for those with injuries and medical conditions.
