Osteoporosis Exercise Protocols: Awareness and Prevention of Osteoporosis with The Method Pilates Reviews
This review is from: Osteoporosis Exercise Protocols: Awareness and Prevention of Osteoporosis with The Method Pilates (Misc.)
In addition, to going over appropriate exercises for your clients with osteoporosis, this manual goes over what is osteoporosis, risk factors for it, its general treatment (bone strengthening and nutrition)and exercises to avoid with your clients. It also includes an appendix filled with useful resources and supplemental information for instructors and their clients.
Exercises include being on the mat, chair, moonbox, cadallic, rotating discs, and ladder barrel. The exercises include clear explanations and step-by-step black and white pictures. In addition, Marika includes the purpose of the exercises, progressions, direction of resistance, and the bone benefits of each exercise.
The downside of the book is in its design. It is spiral bounded so the pages started to fall out when I started to carry it to the various studios where I was working.
