Pilates – Your Friend From the Core

 


Are you tired of doing planks twice a day? Doing core workouts can be really fun so don’t let procrastination deter you from your goal of getting chiselled abs and a strong core. Switch to Pilates to put the life back into your workouts.

Perhaps, building abs are not what you desire and nor do you wish to maintain a 10% and lower body fat percentage all the time to keep your abs from hiding under those layers of fat, ensuring they’re warm and safe. Many people have admitted that maintaining a 6-pack has got to be one of the most difficult things they’ve had to do in life. Counting calories, weighing your food, strict and restricted diets are a huge red flag to many. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t work on your core.

Strengthening your core is one of the biggest blessings you can gift your body. The core sits at the center of the body and is both anatomically and naturally responsible for maintaining balance in the body. The core muscles constitute of your upper, middle and lower abs, obliques, glutes and lower back muscles. Hamstrings are a secondary set of muscles to the main core muscles but they also play a role when it comes to stabilizing the core.

A Pilates Yoga workout helps you learn how to activate and strengthen these muscles the right way.  Learn how to maintain proper balance, learn movements and exercises to keep your spine aligned and strong, find yourself walking better and on an overall level find yourself renewed and full of energy.
