Because artists deal in beauty and form objects to be beautiful by using the imagination, it's important for the artist too to be beautiful. As a representative and high priest of the work of art that is Nature, the artist must work with as much commitment on himself as on his works of art. What greater work of art anyway is there than the physical form of the artist himself?
The first thing the artist must come to learn are the systems that make up the human body. When we exercise several systems are being conditioned simultaneously, so get familiar with what systems there are and how each one functions to keep us healthy and during exercise.
Working out is more than just building muscle, losing weight, or doing cardio. To exercise is a lifelong commitment to your body like being an artist is a lifelong commitment to acting in the capacity of a creative being. Just like the skills you learned to make music, create paintings, for acting, or choreographing, exercise requires that you learn not only the systems that make up the human body, but also how to use them for working out.
Working out means conditioning one or more of the systems of the human body. An individual can work out the cardiovascular system by doing breathing exercises or practicing breathing techniques while exercising the muscular system. Depending on the type of exercise you like to perform, you should commit to becoming expert in that form of working out.
Because some arts are physical in nature it may not be as necessary for those artists to worry about exercise as other artists who sit or stand for extended periods of time without moving very much. Artists who work in this way must make an effort to get exercise anywhere and anytime, especially without weights or too many props. The reason I recommend learning how to exercise without props is to eliminate excuses and barriers to actually working out. If you take the time to acquire the knowledge of working out anywhere, anytime, and in any weather, then staying physically fit will be easy and interesting.
For example, watch how these master Yoga students combine balance, strength, flexibility, and breathing as elements in their exercise practice.

For example, watch how these master Yoga students combine balance, strength, flexibility, and breathing as elements in their exercise practice.
To further assist you in educating yourself about body mechanics and in the many ways the human body can taught to develop balance, strength, and flexibility, here are several books that I personally have used to exercise the body's systems in more intense ways. Each book has something to offer beginning and experienced practitioners of Yoga and Pilates and with regular practice all students will begin to see how both disciplines overlap on certain core principles.
Proficiency with the principles, techniques, and practices found in these and other books on Yoga and Pilates will bring you the following benefits:
You will feel more energized due to an increase in oxygen, blood, and nutrient circulation. This will also benefit sexual performance and increase stamina.
You will feel lighter and more cleansed because of your deep breathing during you workout. Because the organs of the body are gently squeezed during exercise, the activity of the organ will be stimulated to function and cause cleansing to occur. Any hardened residues in the intestines, liver, and circulatory system may loosened and be purged from the body.
You will achieve symmetry of the body, resolve stiff joints and alleviate physical deterioration related to the artist's work. Some poses and postures focus on side of the body at a time, while other allow to exercise both of sides of the body simultaneously. Performing a symmetrical workout can quickly resolve physical imbalances and compensatory movements such as limps and poor posture.
Unlike machine exercises, where you can mindlessly perform a physical motion, the flow of the poses in Yoga and Pilates requires you to perfect your technique by paying close attention to the parts of the body you are using to achieve better fitness results, thus you will achieve mental alertness.
You will learn coordination by the actions of stretching and toning body systems at the same time.
You will experience realizations as you learn to connect the poses seamlessly by transitioning between them.

You will become adaptive to keep things interesting and challenging by coming up with new arrangements and sequences for your workouts. Almost automatically you'll find yourself inventing your own workout routines.
You will become efficient by learning how to exercise the whole body with just a few poses and postures in short periods of time. You'll also realize how to exercise with focus by targeting segments of the body and specific systems for conditioning.
You'll be able to be mobile. With learning about Yoga and Pilates exercise techniques you'll find that it's possible to workout indoors, outdoors, in parking lots, in the bedroom, in the backyard, and if you travel a lot, even in hotel rooms.
You will save money. Because you can exercise anywhere, you don’t have to go to the gym and save your money from membership fees.
You will develop function. As you learn to use your own body weight for the poses and exercises, you won't need weights. Besides, I've often found that the movements exercise machines force us to perform are not always the actual movements we make when we move around normally. Unlike Yoga and Pilates where we learn to exercise using techniques that strengthen our joints, muscles, and bones correctly, we achieve a more graceful sense of our motions.
Yoga and Pilates exercises do not usually work out body systems in isolation. Instead several body systems are exercised together therefore these techniques are an effective means for attaining optimum physical conditioning especially in confined spaces and short spans of time.
And because some artists use their hands exclusively in their work a form of "Finger Yoga" can be developed by gently bending and shaping the fingers into simple poses. This is especially beneficial for the musician, painter, and author who use their hands a great deal.
This is why using Yoga and Pilates is an ideal work out program for artists. Thousands of years of practice, research, and technical perfection have gone into all of the movements found in both disciplines and have benefited millions of people. Count yourself among them and commit to perfecting the physical form of your body by shaping into form you can be proud of.

Overall, learning about these techniques will provide you with all of these benefits and many more. But the most important of these benefits I think are the means to retrain and condition your body to act under your control, to be balanced, toned, stronger, and more flexible.
As a human being, exercise will condition the male or female artist into a biological and physical specimen of natural fitness - an embodiment of natural beauty. With Yoga and Pilates exercises, the beauty of the artist will complement the work he does and improve his performance.
