Pilates and Beyond

~Choices~

We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.

Speak or act with an impure mind
And trouble will follow you
As the wheel follows the ox
that draws the cart.

Speak or act with a pure mind
And happiness will follow you
As your shadow, unshakable.

“Look how he abused me and beat me,
How he threw me down and robbed me.”
Live with such thoughts and you live in hate.
Abandon such thoughts, and live in love.

In this world
Hate never yet dispelled hate.
Only love dispels hate.
This is the law,
Ancient and inexhaustible.

~Buddha

The wall Cadillac - further core strength and muscle challenge here using the leg springs whilst providing opportunity for improving hip stability and mobility. Often reduces lower back pain be regaining balance once more between tight/weak and strong muscle groups in the legs and hips etc.

Kneeling hands in ropes on the reformer creates greater challenge for core muscles, and muscles used in stabilising hips ( e.g.gluts) and shoulders (e.g. mid & lower traps) whilst toning and strengthening arms. Many muscles are being strengthened or lengthened here - just a quick example of how Pilates balances the body effectively on many levels such as reducing joint pain and stiffness, improving flexibility and agility and endurance

Achey back or shoulders.? Try these 2 gentle exercises. Can put a cushion under tummy to help with getting the low long line in first exercise. Particularly if you have a large bust! give it a try - any probs or questions then do post! X

If you feel a bit skewiff, sit at a desk or drive for many hours a day then these exercises for strengthening and aligning your back will help. Remember to feel that your low tummy muscles are being pulled up away from the floor towards the spine, to support the back. Like a long shelf that sags in the middle, you need something to hold it up underneath- so in these back strengthening exercises it's your tummy you want to work!
