Este libro es una guía útil para iniciarse en el método pilates. Los ejercicios que se incluyen están pensados para ser realizados sin la supervisión de un profesor y para conseguir un progreso gradual y seguro; por ello se detalla un gran número de movimientos adicionales sencillos o variaciones con el fin de potenciar en cada nivel el efecto de los ejercicios originales. Se comienza trabajando todo el repertorio del nivel de principiante para pasar luego a integrar los ejercicios del nivel intermedio. También se presentan ejercicios con balón, aro y thera band para ir incluyéndolos en cada sesión a modo de complemento; de esta forma se consigue un repertorio completo, seguro y equilibrado además de lo suficientemente variado para mantener la motivación. Por último, el lector encontrará una serie de ejercicios que le servirán de introducción al nivel avanzado de pilates. Manuel Pedregal es cinturón negro 5º Dan de karate y dirige, junto con Tino García, Pilates Oviedo que es el único centro en Asturias (España) dedicado exclusivamente al método pilates.

Although fitness and health have similar properties, they are, in reality, two very different concepts. While health refers to the absence of diseases, fitness refers to the degree of body functioning and the ability of the body to handle physical demands. The more efficient the body functions, the higher the level of fitness. The higher the level of fitness, the greater the chance of the body being free of diseases and maintaining a healthy state.
