Book excerpt: No one over 50 escapes without one or more physical problems: joint pain, osteoporosis, arthritic hands, pelvic floor weakness, circulation problems, hip replacement surgery... Fortunately, Pilates is the perfect exercise system for relieving the pain, discomfort, and limited mobility that come with all of the above. Now, with Pilates Plus--an approach specifically adapted for later life by a world-renowned expert--older men and women can achieve a degree of flexibility they haven't enjoyed since their 20s. Exercises targeted to specific areas, as well as a gentle top-to-toe daily workout, make it the ideal plan for seniors--even those who haven't exercised in decades. And the surprisingly early results it achieves will make every user a convert to Pilates for life.
