Answer by Betty B
Yes, Pilates work.

I’m autodidact (self-taught) so I’m always like “buy a book”.

Try a Pilates for beginners’ book, there are tons of them but the only one I have is the 2001 Kellina Stewart one and is good…I have no idea about the other books.

That book is a good introduction to Pilates, you do not need any equipment, and it is a sturdy spiral-bound book that has an easel-style system so it can stand on the floor, at eye level.

i would definitely recommend “Pilate’s for dummies” i did it for about 2 months,4 days a week and lost 10 lbs but it looked like 20! and it really toned my whole body,my tummy went down,and you dont need any equipment,all you need is the dvd,and on the dvd is a beginers course,the moves are all very easy to learn,i dont know if everyones results are that good but its def the best pilates video ive found.
good luck!

good luck!
