Is Your Body Rich? Or Wealthy?
I met with a banker this week who explained to me that being simply "rich" was risky. The rich can become poor seemingly overnight. What we want, he expounded, is wealth. The banker went on to explain that wealth meant you were diversified with riches in many areas. Meaning that a single downturn or sudden change in business or the economy wouldn't threaten your well-being.

I reflexively thought of Pilates and how diverse it is. For exercisers that eschew all but one type of fitness, you may be exercise rich but not truly wealthy.  An ankle injury for a spin junkie is going to derail you entirely. Not so with Pilates. You get strength, mobility, coordination, stamina, balance and more. A single limitation doesn't threaten your health because Pilates is a diverse multi-platform system. My conclusion? Pilates makes you wealthy. Health and exercise wealthy.
