As we step into the new year, many are dusting off their fitness goals, eager to regain or enhance their physical health. At CORE Therapy & Pilates, we understand the challenges of getting back into fitness after a hiatus, and we’re here to guide you through this rejuvenation with a blend of physiotherapy and Pilates tailored to your needs.
Why Choose CORE for Your Fitness Comeback?
Integrated Approach to Fitness: Our unique combination of physiotherapy with Pilates is especially beneficial for those returning to exercise. Pilates focuses on core strength, flexibility, and alignment, which are crucial for preventing injuries and ensuring your body is ready for the demands of new physical activities.
Personalized Workouts: We’ve expanded our offerings with a private workout pod, equipped with a bench, rack, dumbbells, and free weights, creating a ‘Home Gym at CORE’. Here, we blend traditional strength training with Pilates techniques, ensuring a workout that’s both effective and safe for all fitness levels.
Getting Back on Track with Pilates and Weight Training
Core Engagement: For those new or returning to fitness, understanding how to engage your core during exercises like bench presses or squats can prevent back strain and enhance muscle activation. We teach this through Pilates breathing techniques – inhale to prepare or lower, exhale to engage and lift.
Progressive Workouts: Starting with moderate exercises on the Pilates Reformer, such as footwork or long box exercises, helps in building a foundation of strength and flexibility. This preparation makes weight training more effective and less risky.
Real-Life Success Stories: Just recently, we had a session with a group of young athletes, demonstrating how integrating Pilates can lead to immediate improvements in strength training performance. One participant set a personal record in squats after applying Pilates principles, showing that this method works for all ages looking to improve their fitness safely.
Staying Committed in the New Year
Community and Support: Join our Wednesday and Thursday evening classes where you’ll find a supportive community. These sessions are designed for those looking to maintain consistency in their fitness regime, fostering accountability and motivation.
