Everything
about Pilates in the USA
Pilates home gyms exercises
(pronounced "puh-lah-teez") is a system
of over 500 controlled exercises that engage the
mind and condition the total body. It is a balanced
blend of strength and flexibility training that
improves posture, reduces stress and creates long,
lean muscles without bulking up
Pilates home gyms exercises
work several muscle groups simultaneously through
smooth, continuous motion, with a particular concentration
on strengthening and stabilizing the core (the
abdomen, back and pelvic girdle region, sometimes
referred to as the "powerhouse").
The focus in Pilates home
gyms exercises is on quality of movement rather
than quantity, which makes one feel invigorated
rather than exhausted after a session. Pilates
home gyms exercises takes a balanced approach
so that no muscle group is overworked and the
body works as an efficient, holistic system in
sport and daily activity.

The
Equipment
Pilates home
gyms exercises can be performed on a mat, with
literally hundreds of beginner to advanced moves
available in the repertoire for a well-rounded
workout on the floor. However, there are five
major pieces of specialized Pilates equipment,
the Pilates Reformer, the Pedipull or the modern
Pilates Resistance Bands, The Pilates Cadillac,
The Pilates Barrel and The Pilates Chair- plus
a few smaller accessories or Pilates Props - that
can add a whole new level of interest and intensity
to the Pilates home gyms exercises experience.
Some Pilates home gyms,
like the classic Pilates Circles, offer spring
resistance, others like the Pilates Spine Supporter,
offer support , and a variety of unique exercises
for the total body can be performed on each piece.
Again, a purely mat-based routine is an authentic
and effective Pilates exercises workout by itself,
but if you have the opportunity to explore some
Pilates home gyms exercises equipment under the
guidance of a trained professional, do so!
