Why Pilates is on the rise for men (and why they keep coming back).
For years, Pilates was unfairly labelled as “not for men.”
Usually by people who had never tried it.
That perception is changing fast.
At BodyRight Physiotherapy in Drogheda, our men’s Pilates classes have grown so much that we now run three dedicated groups — and once men start, they rarely give up their spot.
Why?
Because Pilates improves:
• Strength through range
• Mobility in hips, spine and shoulders
• Posture and joint health
• Balance and coordination
• Recovery after injury or surgery
Many men notice improvements in golf, running, skiing, and gym performance. Others simply say their back finally feels strong and supported.
And while we don’t make a big deal of it in class, the breath-led core work also supports pelvic health, spinal control and long-term resilience.
It’s not about pushing harder.
It’s about moving better.
Strong now. Strong later.
