HEY ALL YOU PILATES LOVERS …… LETS GET READY FOR THESE SUMMER BODIES
LETS SHOW THEM OFF
balancenstrength fans. Now that we have given thought to Keto and Mediterranean diet. Lets apply these better eating habits to how we could feel in the abdominal region. Bloated, constipation, cramps and the list can go on, these issues could affect how we think and how we move. The more in balance we keep some of these issues the more we can add positive to our mental and physical conditioning.
Pilates will always target our upper and lower abdominal muscles. Pilates involves strengthing the legs, gluteal muscles, arms and back. Keepping this area strong is our goal overall for good health. Lets take a look at some basic exercises:
- THE HUNDRED …. Starting with proper breathing, pull lower body (legs, pelvis muscles, gluteal muscles AND upper body (the torso, back and arm, neck muscles), toward one another. Like a pully system and vigorulsly pump arms. Breathing in and out for 5 counts each to =100. THIS is one of the best exercises to work on. WE TARGET IT ALL. Lengthening, stretching and pulling upper and lower together literally tightens and tones the whole body.
- ROLL UP ….. peels and curls the midsection (abdominals) like the small of a wave in the ocean. Again this lengthening and tightening carves that mid-drift down.
- PLANK …. PILATES does this in counts of 4. Out for 4 hold, lower and hold, return on 4 ALL back to standing. You have major arm, back, core, legs and of course gluteals.
These are just some of the few exercises that taken mindfully to physical will=GOOD LOOKIN SUMMER BODIES!!!!!!
WORKING A FEW OF THE EXERCISES EVERYDAY YOU WILL BEGIN TO FEEL STRONGER AND MORE SOLID FROM INSIDE OUT. MUSCLES BECOME LONGER AND LEANER IN APPEARANCE.
SO.. SHOW OFF THOSE BODIES
SO…summer bodies here we come .. better eating .. mindful and physical exercise. this equals great bodies.
