Quads on. Pilates style.
A few of the exercises in the studio this week, with some progressions focusing on the quads 🦵
Heel-raised + decline squats for next-level quads
Squats focus on slow, controlled movement to activate the quads and build lower-body strength.
Balance, stability, and precision are key!!!
Decline squats ( on the board) targets your quads through a greater ROM, lowering your heels increases quad activation and helps build control through your full range, also great for knee strength & mobility.
Heel-raised squats keep constant tension on the front of the legs 🔥
By elevating your heels, you isolate your quads, switches the core on and rom is deeper with control, plus these are great for ankle mobility. (If your a netballer then you'll know ðŸ¤)
A perfect combo of Pilates and functional strength.
