Pilates For Better Health And Faster Movements

The Pilates are of two types Mat Pilates and pilates equipment

. The equipments are mostly based on a spring mechanism. It was the idea of Joseph Pilates to attach bed and springs to the bed posts of prisoners during World War I. This arrangement facilitated restoration of functioning of muscles as well as joints by way of improving blood circulation. The introduction of mat pilates was a significant step. Mat pilates can be used in both group and individual sessions and it consists of small pops, pilate rings, balls, rollers made of foam and arc barrels. Pilates equipment is comparatively more expensive. Moreover, the instructors of these equipments should have undergone adequate training. The equipments are used more in Private studios and are rarely found in public gyms. Though the pilate apparatus has undergone a series of innovations, still they are much similar to the original version made by Joseph Pilates in his studio in New York.

The device in the form of a bed with adjustable length is known as pilates reformer. It can be used by users of varying heights. The original reformers were made of wooden frames and of late they are made of metals also. Now, reformers come in beautiful designs so as to be kept among other furniture in a house. Reformers for domestic use are more close to floor. The carriage made of mat will slide in both directions. Springs are provided to control the impact of tension to the carriage. There will be an adjustable foot-bar and shoulder blocks which will help the user to stabilize himself while on the carriage. The carriage can be moved back and forth using the leather straps. The latest models of pilates reformer are designed in such a way that by connecting back or disconnecting anyone of the springs that are colored, the resistance level can be easily adjusted. When there is more resistance on the reformer, the user will get more support to perform an exercise. This will enable weak persons also to use the device and do the exercise on their own.

Basically, pilates make the muscles of our body stronger. As a result the whole body will be strengthened and the person will be able to do his physical tasks with added vigor. Pilate should not be misunderstood as a body building machine. By way of improving the posture, pilates ensure easy breathing, spinal health and easier movements. This exercise system found out by Joseph Pilates has become very popular.
