This full body Pilates program is about finding your strength & increasing your muscular endurance through an upbeat creative sequence that is sure to have you sweatingIn my Full Body Pilates course you’ll soon find yourself with a stronger back & core, better posture, stronger legs, a perkier peach & enhanced muscle definition. In this Pilates program you won’t bulk, but instead you will gain muscles and strength in all the right places. The benefits of the program include reduced fatigue, stronger muscular endurance & cardiovascular health, increased flexibility & and a more toned physique. You’ll find that even everyday tasks like climbing stairs will become easier as your strength builds with each exercise you complete. The workouts don’t get easier - you just get stronger.Props are ultimately optional in the course, however some small props are recommended in order to enhance your experience & adjust muscular targets. For varying classes you’ll need: yoga blocks, a Pilates small ball, free hand weights (small: roughly 1-2kg) or ankle weights, as well as a lightweight rubber resistance band.Pilates is for everyBODY, and is encouraged for any level of ability. However, due to the dynamic movement, I can recommend an “intermediate level” for those trying this course, as it’s designed to lead your muscles to their full power and multiple reps of each exercise can be fatiguing. Take breaks when you need, but otherwise power through! You’ve got this.
