Contrary to what history has to say, Germans didn't solely play the role of antagonists during World War I. Some became hope to immobile victims of war. Through Joseph Pilates, different programs and exercise methods succeeded in inspiring precision, breathing, flow, movement, and control. As a young boy, Pilates was a sick child. But even his frail body was no match to a solid dream that one day, he would be just as strong as any athlete. So he gave himself hope and later joined different sports. He then became an athlete, a WWI nurse, and a great fitness guru.
