Benefits of Pilates for seniors
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that adults complete at least 2.5 hours of moderately intense exercise per week. This can include physical activities ranging from walking around the block to gardening, dancing, raking leaves and so there are plenty of exercises that are wonderful for older adults but the best one of the options is Pilates.
Pilates was originally created and developed by Joseph Pilates as a way to help dancers condition their bodies and strengthen their cores. Today, Pilates works in much of the same manner. It incorporates slow, controlled movements that stretch and tone muscles, help improve posture and strengthen the core – all of which are imperative for seniors who need to better their balance and stability. Additionally, Pilates helps to elongate and re-align the spine, which helps with posture and limits muscle imbalance.
Pilates is suitable for all fitness levels because each exercise can be modified for beginners and progressed to more advanced stages for seasoned Pilates participants. This format is also great for those who can’t or prefer not to stand for long periods of time because most of the class is performed seated or lying down.
