Send us a textOur hands. How often do you think about your hands and all they do for you each and everyday? We put them to work the moment we get out of bed until we turn the lights off at night. Our hands grab, wave, lift, hold, caress..and in addition, our wrists and arms allow us to practice for example, the Long Stretch series on the Reformer, or the Pull Up on the Wunda chair. Did you know that the forearm alone has over twenty muscles? Though crucial to everyday activities, our hands don’t get all that much attention. Joe understood this and invented devices to help strengthen fingers, hands and wrists. The Hands-Tens-O-meter and the Bean Bag roll up device can be found in many Pilates studios, and who knows what else Joe Pilates would have invented had he lived longer.About Darien Gold ~ https://www.dariengold.comMusic credits ~ AKA JohnnyInstagram: @theotherjohnmayer - Email: [email protected] a show supporter! https://www.buzzsprout.com/332675/supporters/newAbout Institute of Human Anatomy ~ https://instituteofhumananatomy.comSupport the show
