Have
you ever wondered just how
Hollywood celebrities manage to look so great all the time?
Yes,
it could be trick
photography but one of the best kept secrets that has been responsible
for some
of the most attractive Hollywood bodies is an exercise and conditioning
system
developed way back in the 1920’s by a man called Joseph Pilates.
He
started
doing Pilates during World War 1 as a way to rehabilitate injured
soldiers. It may seem that
Pilates is a new craze sweeping the world, but for such a system to
have lasted
so long and not to have gone the way of many other exercise systems
there must
be something to it.
Certainly,
an initial look at the equipment associated
with
this fitness regime might conjure up images of a torture chamber, but
once the
philosophy behind it is explained and the equipment is tried then it
all makes
sense and skeptics become true believers.
