Developed by Joseph Pilates early in the 20th century, the Pilates system of exercise uses resistance training and stretching to tone the entire body. He spent the first part of his life as an exercise enthusiast and sportsman. In his teens, he became the model for fitness charts.
During World Ware I, he was interned on the Isle of Wight along with other German nationals. After his release, he worked to develop a system of healthful activity to help other interns as well as the victims of the Influenza Pandemic of 1918. Instead of weight lifting or repetitive movements, his system used breathing, concentration and balance to strengthen the body with limited chance of injury. Most of his system uses only a mat, but he also developed a few simple instruments to work with.
