Four Reasons to Practice Pilates
A resident of Santa Barbara, California, Brett Grimes has worked in the financial services industry for more than 30 years. In his free time, Brett Grimes enjoys practicing Pilates. A low-impact exercise, Pilates focuses on the coordination of breathing and movement to strengthen stability and enhance muscle control. Here are four of the major benefits of regular Pilates practice: 1. Better posture. When you practice Pilates, you’ll learn to correctly position your spine by building awareness of how your muscles, especially your legs, glutes, and core, can help support the spine. 2. Better balance. A successful Pilates practice relies on good balance to perform a wide range of moves; the more you practice, the better your sense of balance will become. 3. Reduced back pain. Through body-lengthening moves in Pilates, the spine gets decompressed. These moves also increase hip stability and lower back support. Together, these all lead to a reduction in lower back pain, which can be especially helpful for those who spend most of their waking hours at the computer. 4. Improved flexibility. Because Pilates focuses on the integration of the muscles, regular practitioners will be working muscles through their full range of motion and notice increased flexibility over time.

The Benefits of Pilates
A financial advisor in Santa Barbara, California, Brett Grimes has served executive and management positions with several major financial institutions. When he isn’t working, Brett Grimes stays fit by regularly engaging in Pilates. Pilates offers some unique advantages over other forms of exercise. Perhaps most significantly, Pilates provides a full-body workout that develops all body parts equally. Like yoga, Pilates is also a great way to improve flexibility. However, it concentrates on physical activity without the component of spirituality that is common to yoga instruction. This isn’t to say that Pilates doesn’t have mental benefits. In fact, practice founder Joseph Pilates stressed the importance of a mind-body connection he called “Contrology.” Pilates adherents have connected the practice to increased energy levels, reduced stress levels, enriched mental concentration, and greater body awareness. The physical benefits of Pilates range from improved muscle strength and tone to better posture and spine stabilization. The exercise is ideal for people who want to be stronger without bulking up.
