Customer Reviews
Excellent
Good clear instructions on different exercises and a variety of different programmes for beginners, intermediate and advanced.
So what is core strength anyway?
I took up Pilates because I needed to do some exercise and thought it looked easy. How wrong can you be? And although I'm better than I was a year ago, an hour's class one evening a week just isn't enough. This book looks really helpful, though - it has lots of clearly laid-out exercises and sensible 'start here, then progress to here' instructions that mean I can fit in the odd 20 minutes' practice at home whenever it suits me. The answer to my prayers? Could be: ask me again in a year's time.
Book
One of those books you get because you have good intentions to use it. I have yet to get myself started on a daily routine
