Core-Focused Exercises
One of the key components of Clinical Pilates is its focus on core strength. Here are some core-focused exercises commonly included in Clinical Pilates routines:
- Pelvic Tilt: Lie on your back with your knees bent. Slowly tilt your pelvis towards your chest, engaging your core muscles. Hold for a few seconds and release.
- Leg Slides: Lie on your back with one knee bent and the other leg extended. Slowly slide the extended leg along the floor, engaging your core. Return to the starting position and switch legs.
- Plank: Start in a push-up position with your hands directly under your shoulders. Engage your core muscles and hold the position for as long as you can.
These exercises help strengthen the muscles in your abdomen, back, and pelvis, improving your overall core stability and strength.
