Chances are, with the gain in popularity, you have
heard of Pilates and the benefits that come from
performing them on a regular basis.
Many people at all different health levels and fitness
levels who have started a Pilates program rave about
the improvements they have in range of motion,
circulation, posture and abdominal strength. They also
claim a huge decrease in back pain as well as neck and
joint pain.
The creator of Pilates, Joseph Pilates has now been
dead for over 40 years and the demand for his exercise
program has never been greater.
Pilates creates body awareness. The focus is on
precise movements coupled with steady breathing. All
of this required attention changes ones awareness. You
learn to train your mind and build symmetry and
coordination in the body.
Pilates teaches a person how to strengthen the core of
their body and this core strength helps radiate
strength throughout the entire body and its
extremities.
A stronger core does not necessarily mean flat abs.
But the core strength will give your muscles the work
they need to further your exercises and create those
flatter abs.
You will definitely begin to trim the body down and
that will in turn cause a flatter mid section. Pilates
will shift your shape, but it ma not change your body
without added exercises. A flexible muscle is a
stronger muscle.
Another benefit of Pilates is body control. Pilates
teaches you how to move and achieve the all important
body symmetry. Pilates works the entire body into
synergy and that is how we should be moving on a daily basis.
