How Does Pilates Work?
Our bodies are made up of various layers of muscles from superficial to deep. Standard exercise (working out at the gym) predominantly works our superficial muscles e.g. biceps, hamstrings. Pilates targets our deep core muscles e.g. pelvic floor and deep abdominals. These deep muscles aid in stability around the joints of the body and are often very weak, leaving our joints vulnerable to injury.
Pilates aims to improve the body’s control and stability of the abdominal, pelvic floor, diaphragm and deep stabilising back muscles and to help promote injury prevention.
