More Information!
The 31 exercises are grouped into three groups of approximately ten. Each group is a mini workout of ten exercises. The difficulty of any exercise depends on your strengths, so although the exercises are intended to get more difficult as the month progresses, you might find that some of the exercises are easier than others and that is only natural and is to be expected.
“What you least like to do, you do it twice!”
… Joseph Pilates said … (according to Romana Kryzanowska)
Which ones should you concentrate on? All of them, but the ones that you find most difficult will most likely be the ones that your body needs the most – so don’t fall into the temptation of omitting them!
Happy New Year,
Miguel 🙂
