The Hundred… A Warm up!

The Hundred is an exercise that was created by Joseph Pilates which is performed by beginner, intermediate and advanced clients. The Hundred is meant as an entire body workout. Your head is lifted to work your upper abdomen, your legs are extended to work the lower abdomen (in the photo below, the legs are at the intermediate level), the arms pump up and down and then you add breathe (10 counts in and 10 counts out for a total of 10 breathes) to work your lungs. So many things to think about while doing this exercise!
