“Pilates arm” has become a modern fitness phrase. As you might have guessed, this describes the look of toned, defined, and strong arms achieved through a Pilates workout with the right weight.<\/p>\n

When we talk about longevity, this is key. Your upper body plays an important role in maintaining your independence as you age, from unloading items from overhead shelves to maintaining proper posture to align your spine.<\/p>\n
