In this quick video about What is Pilates, And why should you be doing Pilates, I explain the top questions about Pilates and it's benefits.
The History of Pilates begins with Joseph Pilates and his 6 principles of movement: Concentration, Control, Center, Breath, Precision, and Flow. I explain the differences between classical Pilates and contemporary Pilates, as well as how Pilates can teach you so much body awareness that is built into the exercises. I also give a no-BS approach to top questions such as Can Pilates help with weight loss and can you do Pilates and traditional resistance training?
I have been teaching Pilates as well as Personal Training for many years and feel that the information on social media regarding these questions about Pilates is very misleading. One popular question I get is can Pilates build muscle? Pilates gives you resistance, and if used properly, yes, it can help you build muscle and develop better awareness of your movement and isolation of positions as well as control in your body.
If you enjoyed this video, including the Allegro 2 Balanced Body Reformer Workout, and are looking for a reformer or add-on a Tower for home use, this Tower of Power is great! All of my clients own this exact model of the Allegro 2 with Tower attachment and love it as It's very user-friendly and easy to adjust.
