      Synopsis

      Wimps of the World--you can work out without being embarrassed. Here is Pilates broken down and made simple for those who want to get fit without becoming a gym rat. The bestselling Wimps series shows the way to Pilates success with the help of a certified, highly experienced instructor; easy-to-follow instructions; and a wealth of detailed, encouraging photographs of ordinary, average guys and gals mastering the technique. Begin toning and reshaping your body with basic mat exercises for the stomach, back, legs, and arms, plus powerhouse moves that work each area together. Choose from a menu of different options that relieve everyday problems, including the tension that builds while sitting at a computer all day. There's even a "no time to workout" workout. Pilates is truly a body-changing experience, and with this reassuring presentation, no wimp need miss out.

      February 10, 2004: For Christmas, I gave all of my friends this book and Yoga for Wimps, just as one of the reviewers suggested. Everyone loves -- and uses -- both books.
