Sobre aquest llibre
The Pilates principles include:
Pilates exercises are frequently performed with an emphasis on engaging the core muscles, also known as the "engine" of the body.
Pilates movements are executed with a great deal of control, with an emphasis on technique and form.
Pilates exercises are frequently executed in a fluid, flowing manner.
Pilates emphasizes precise movements, frequently concentrating on a particular muscle group or joint.
Pilates emphasizes the use of controlled breathing to support movement and deliver oxygen to the muscles.
Pilates requires focus and concentration in order to execute the movements correctly and reap the full benefits of the exercise.
Pilates exercises can be performed on a mat or with specialized apparatuses such as the reformer, Cadillac, and Wunda chair. Pilates is beneficial for individuals of all ages and fitness levels, and it can be modified to accommodate injuries and other physical limitations. It can be used to enhance general fitness, recover from injury, and treat specific health conditions such as back pain and scoliosis.
Some people practice Pilates as a low-impact form of exercise, while others use it as a supplement to other physical activities, including sports, to improve and balance the body.
