Pilates for Everyone (häftad, eng)

Pilates benefits every body--including yours!

Pilates is exercise for your mind, body, and spirit, but what if your body won''t cooperate? How can you take advantage of all Pilates has to offer--strengthening your core, enhancing your flexibility, and even improving your posture--if you think you''re too old or too big or too physically unable to perform the Hundred, the Shoulder Bridge, or the Double-Leg Stretch?

No matter what your age, size, or physical ability is, you can do every exercise in Pilates for EveryoneEach Pilates exercise shows the typical movements for gaining the physical and mental benefits from that exercise. Then each exercise offers at least three variations performed by people just like you to help you find the right modification that fits who you are. This way, no matter which version you perform, you''re going to reach similar goals.



Pilates for Everyone includes these features:
  • 50 step-by-step exercises for specific body areas
  • Step-by-step modifications for every exercise
  • 10 routines that combine exercises from the book for maximum benefits
  • Expert advice from Micki Havard on how to get the most out of your practice

“Pilates for Everyone written by Micki Havard is exactly what the title impliesMicki doesn’t just use words but shows readers that the statement in the title is indeed true. This vibrant book that warmly welcomes the reader into the world of Pilates clearly explains how each exercise is executed. The models, who we also learn about their background, are not Pilates statues but actual everyday people who show that Pilates can be done by everyone.

The breakdown of the book—the workouts, variations, modifications, and adjustments—are excellent and show the reader that at whatever fitness level they’re at, they too can move with strength and joy!”
