Any activity that involves moving, toning, stretching, increasing your heart rate, or strengthening your muscles is generally beneficial to your health, but Pilates provides so much more than muscle toning. A comprehensive workout created by Joseph Pilates in the early twentieth century, Pilates is considered a fast track strategy to a fit body and mind. &ldquo;Flexibility, muscle strength, core strength, posture improvement, and spine stabilization are just a few of the benefits,&rdquo; explains Shobana Mahansaria, Director of Core Fit Plus, Kolkata. &ldquo;Pilates exercises might even help you to completely transform your body.&rdquo; She adds that coordination of the mind, body, and soul is key in Pilates. &ldquo;This type of exercise can help relieve lower back pain and other muscle aches and pains if you incorporate it into your daily fitness programme.&rdquo; Mahansaria explains what makes Pilates a one-stop way to ensure your overall wellbeing.STRESS MANAGEMENT AND RELAXATIONThe best part of doing Pilates is that it might transform your thoughts as well! Pilates employs techniques that are beneficial to the mind and that aid in maintaining good mental health. Everyone can use these low-impact workouts to maintain a healthy mind and body. The system helps to alleviate stress by working on the nervous system. The breathing exercises help ease muscle tension, improve blood circulation, and teach you to use your breath to help soothe the nervous system. This results in less stress, anxiety, and fatigue and an increased feeling of calm and wellbeing. On the other hand, it also reduces stress hormones such as cortisol and increases the body&rsquo;s endorphins, which are the feel-good chemicals that give your mood a natural boost.ME-TIME IS A MUSTPilates is good for people of all ages since it improves endurance, overall health, and stamina. Recognise that Pilates is a discipline and that no one is perfect. You must listen to your body and do the best you can. Taking time out of your hectic day to focus on your breathing and stretch your muscles can be a terrific panacea to a stressful existence. Pilates can help to unite the body, mind, and soul while also reducing feelings of pressure and stress.WHEN SHOULD YOU PERFORM PILATES?Pilates is best done in the morning even before you sip your coffee. It helps in blood circulation and instantly uplifts your mood. If your mornings are packed and chaotic, you can set a time in the evening when your stomach feels empty. If you have the habit of working out at a gym, perform Pilates at the end of your workout session.
