DK brings you a ground-breaking health book that will help you revitalise your workouts and perfect your Pilates practice, by understanding the muscle action, breathwork and techniques required, every step of the way.

Did you know that performing Pilates can strengthen your core, improve flexibility and posture, and help to reduce stress and anxiety at the same time? Backed by scientific research, learn how Pilates exercises benefit every system in the body. Science of Pilates reveals the facts with annotated artworks that show the mechanics, the angles, how your blood flow and respiration are affected, the key muscle and joint actions working below the surface of each exercise, safe alignment, and much more!

Go on a journey of self-discovery to explore:

- Specially commissioned CGI artworks depict all the main Pilates exercises with variations that add or reduce challenge.
- Artworks detail the mechanics of each exercise, correct body posture, the muscles involved and how they engage to perform movements.
- Illustrations featuring colour-coding to highlight how the muscles, ligaments, and joints engage, stretch, and relax to perform each exercise.
- Pilates programmes tailored to different abilities and aims.
- Suggested practices with a progressive increase in challenge over weeks and months.
- Easy-to-follow infographics help explain the hard science behind why Pilates training is so effective and what beneficial physical adaptations it can bring.

Set out to unearth the facts behind the pseudo-science fads, The Science of Pilates is an approachable, entertaining and easy-to read fitness guide for those seeking self-development backed up by solid scientific evidence. The popular question and answer format brings an immediacy to the information provided, and the highly visually illustrations truly bring the science to life in a contemporary and accessible way.

Great buy
Our dog is so happy about this. He loves chasing a ball. We also love the fact that it is collapsible and only 12 inches. We travel a lot so it’s perfect for that. I’m enclosing a movie. I did about it for Amazon.

Very disappointed
Unfortunately I ended up being very disappointed with this purchase, after about two weeks of use, it just stopped performing. Not sure what happened but it just stopped releasing the ball and I don't know why, it had no flexibility left to it. I'm not doing a very good job of trying to explain why it quit working but suffice it to say, it became useless after a couple of weeks. Broke my neighbors dog's heart, lol.

Tough & durable, but relatively light for throwing
Pattern Name: Tug Frisbee, Size: Large
This is the second one of these that I've ordered although to be honest, the first one is still very much intact and it was bought when my 3-yr old Shepweiler was still a young, but growing, pup! Tough & durable, yet light enough to be thrown (& caught), without much effort. It can also be used as a tug toy, as my other pup, a pit/boxer/"Heinz57" mix, loves to use it as.

A favorite in our house!
Pattern Name: Ultra Ring, Size: Large, Pattern Name: Ultra Ring, Size: Large
~ Recommend if you have a dog who: is a heavy chewer/tugger, loves to chase squirrely things (it can have a wacky roll to it, which my dog thinks is so fun), gets their toys dirty or slobbery. My pup is 65 pound pitty mix - i'd definitely say this is for big dogs. Maybe medium (45+ pounds, ish?). Just my opinion, of course... but I think it's a bit thick/heavy for small pups to grab. ~ My pup LOVES this ring toy! I got this back in October - so it has been through the ringer. Atlas isn't usually a super heavy chewer, but with this toy she is. Not only does she love to play with it, she will even bring it to her bed to comfort chew (i think she likes the pressure on her back teeth... this rubbery material is SUPER sturdy but also has a little bit of "give" so I don't worry at all about her teeth). She loves to chase it / catch it on the roll. She brings it to me on the daily for play. Its good for tug, chase, or fetch. Perfect for the beach or any environment, really, as it's super easy to clean... so it comes with us everywhere. We will probably have this toy forever... there's not a single puncture mark yet. So, for me worth the cost 10x over.

It’s Trash
Pattern Name: Tug Frisbee, Size: Large
Lasted maybe 1 minute… I gave it to my dog turned to throw away package, when I looked back dog had already taken a chunk off … might as well have given him the dollar bills it took to buy … they would probably last as long
