Any person who’s been doing it for at least a couple of months knows that Pilates doesn’t only sculpt your body but it also clears your mind and gives you energy and inner serenity. But what is so special about Pilates?</p>
<p>Trainer.ae provides certified, professional, friendly and more than 10 years of experienced trainers at your home.</p>
<p>People come to a Pilates class to get a flat tummy, ease joint pains and discomforts, rehabilitate after a surgery or improve their athletic performance. And Pilates can do all of that!</p>
<p>The modern world is full of distractions, stresses, and chaos. Each one of us is looking for a personal state of peace and tranquility that would help us make sense of everything that is going on in our lives. When searching for that inner balance we usually consider popular self-improvement techniques like meditation, simplifying, affirmations, etc. but we rarely consider any form of exercise as a viable tool to help us balance our lives.</p>
<p>So here are the amazing health benefits of pilates</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Pilates Is Whole-Body Fitness</p>
<p>Unlike some forms of exercise, Pilates does not over-develop some parts of the body and neglect others. While Pilates training focuses on core strength, it trains the body as an integrated whole.</p>
<p>Pilates workouts promote strength and balanced muscle development as well as flexibility and increased the range of motion for the joints.</p>
<p>Attention to the core support and full-body fitness, including the breath and the mind, provide a level of integrative fitness that is hard to find elsewhere. It is also the reason that Pilates is so popular in rehab scenarios, as well as with athletes who find that Pilates is a great foundation for any kind of movement they do. ​</p>
<p><strong>Pilates Creates Strength Without Bulk</strong></p>
<p>Long, lean muscles are the name of the game here. In Pilates, you are not looking to build muscles for show. You are building toned muscles that work perfectly within the context of the body as a whole, and the functional fitness needs of a person as they move through life.</p>
<p>One of the ways that Pilates creates long, strong muscles is by taking advantage of a type of muscle contraction called an eccentric contraction.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pilates Increases Flexibility</strong></p>
<p>In Pilates, we work toward a safe increase in length and stretch of the muscles and range of motion within the joints. You won&#8217;t find quite as much &#8220;pretzel logic&#8221; in Pilates as you might in yoga, but a body that can stretch and bend to meet the flow of life is a very realistic goal.​</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pilates Develops Core Strength</strong></p>
<p>The core muscles of the body are the deep muscles of the back, abdomen, and pelvic floor. These are the muscles we rely on to support a strong, supple back, good posture, and efficient movement patterns. When the core is strong, the frame of the body is supported. This means the neck and shoulders can relax, and the rest of the muscles and joints are freed to do their jobs, not more.</p>
<p>A nice side benefit is that the core training promotes the flat abs that we all covet.</p>
<h3>Pilates Improves Posture</h3>
<p>Good posture is a reflection of good alignment supported by a strong core. It is a position from which one can move freely. Starting with Pilates movement fundamentals and moving through mat and equipment exercises, Pilates trains the body to express itself with strength and harmony. You can see this in the beautiful posture of those who practice Pilates. It&#8217;s a reason why people do Pilates for back pain.</p>

<p>Finding the right Fitness Program is key to weight loss and a healthier you. Here are the top 10 benefits of small group training. You will surely experience these benefits first hand<strong> when you try your first FREE class!</strong></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>More personal attention</strong>– While group exercise offers many benefits, the instructors are not always able to see and correct each individual class member.</li>
<li><strong>More economical</strong>– 1-on-1 Personal Training provides the most personal attention and the greatest opportunity to succeed. Some people, however, may find that SGT fits MORE into their budget and still gives them the attention they need.</li>
<li><strong>Variety</strong>– By working with a knowledgeable fitness professional, your workouts will change/evolve as you progress, preventing hitting a plateau and boredom.</li>
<li><strong>Camaraderie</strong>– Let’s face it, workouts love company. Sharing the workout enhances the experience for all participants.</li>
<li><strong>Motivation</strong>– Having someone exercising right beside you can push you a little harder than you might do on your own.</li>
<li><strong>Support</strong>– Both the trainer and the other participants are there to help you get through the challenges of the workout and the obstacles in life.</li>
<li><strong>Greater focus</strong>– There’s no time to let your mind wander with a trainer keeping tight programming and watching you’re every move.</li>
<li><strong>Fun</strong>– Yes, fun. The right exercise program done with friends can definitely be fun.</li>
<li><strong>Adherence</strong>– Research shows that members that are involved in programs are more likely to stick with it. With ALL the previously listed benefits, how could you not want to keep coming back?</li>
<li><strong>Results</strong>– When you stick with a well-constructed program, you will always get the results.</li>

This exercise sculpts the body effectively and gives amazing cognitive benefits.<br />
You can find other amazing benefits below</p>
<h2>1. Brain Booster</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-13034" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Yoga-enSS-41.jpg" border="0" alt="Brain booster" width="771" height="578" /></p>
<p>Studies have shown that the human brain is capable of producing more cells, to make it active and more effective. When you do pilates for a particular period of time, the memory power in the brain is increased, and this also stimulates the neural activity in the body.</p>
<h2>2. Increases flexibility</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13037" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/MainTile_v5_01.jpg" border="0" alt="flexibility" width="780" height="446" /></p>
<p>Pilates focuses on the integrity of the body and supports enough stretching of the muscles. The body will be required to flex as much as the exercise needs it to, and with time, the flexibility of the individual will be increased. This is also beneficial in other exercises; it reduces the risk of pain, slight muscle strain, and involuntary muscle contraction.</p>
<h2>3. Improves posture</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-13032" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screen-Shot-2015-03-12-at-11.27.51-AM.png" border="0" alt="posture" width="683" height="925" /></p>
<p>This exercise functions to increase lean muscle mass and cut off unwanted fats in the body. It cuts down unwanted fats in the stomach region, and keep the tummy flat and abdominal muscles well-toned. It also helps to keep the butt firm and work on some other areas of the body; this, will support a well-improved posture and keep the body in shape.</p>
<h2>4. Boosts core strength</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-13038" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/ProBody-Pilates-Exercise-Ball-Professional-Grade-Anti-Burst-Swiss-Ball-for-Pilates-Yoga-Training-and-Physical-Therapy-Blue-65cm-Dia-0-2.jpg" border="0" alt="core strength" width="728" height="485" /></p>
<p>The core is what keeps the body upright and sound, which is why many people workout, with much focus on the core. A strong core keeps the body frame supported, and pilates does just that for you. It strengthens the core, abdominal muscles, back muscles, and pelvic muscles, and this will result in an improved posture and efficient movement patterns.</p>
<h2>5. Happy moment</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-13033" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Yoga-and-Pilates-Complimentary-Disciplines-548x330.jpg" border="0" alt="Happy moment" width="736" height="443" /></p>
<p>Pilates will make you happier if you are a lover of it. When stressed, the human body tends to release endorphins that will make us feel good. One can be stressed from working out, and if you have your total focus on your workout, more endorphins will be released and your happy moments are here.</p>
<h2>6. Eases back pains</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-13030" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/back-pain.jpg" border="0" alt=" Eases back pains" width="714" height="696" /></p>
<p>This works in line with core strengthening and the improvement of posture; back pains are suppressed while pilates works effectively on the core strength. It also helps to reduce the risk of any further pain, and keep the body free from back aches for longer periods.</p>
<h2>7. You control your emotions</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-13035" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/woman-meditating-on-the-beach.jpg" border="0" alt="control your emotions" width="719" height="500" /></p>
<p>Breathing and emotions are closely related, which is why breathing tends to increase when you are faced with frightening situations. Learn to breathe correctly, especially when doing Pilates, to get the best of its emotional benefits. Depending on how you breathe, you can breathe yourself into calmness or anxiety, and this would require so much focus and attention while you exercise.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Aforementioned, are 7 amazing benefits that would give you reasons to add pilates to your fitness regimen if you haven’t. It is a very good option if you need a personal state of peace and tranquillity, and time to gather your thoughts.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="bpp_post_wrapper" data-bpp-pinlink="https://www.trainer.ae/articles/4-exercises-to-help-correct-your-childs-posture-11938" data-bpp-pincorner="northwest" data-bpp-pinhover="false" data-bpp-lang="en" data-bpp-count="beside" data-bpp-zero-count="true" data-bpp-size="20" data-bpp-color="gray"><p>Posture is a very important aspect of everyone’s life. Whether or not we realize it, our posture affects our abilities in different ways. It affects how we breathe, walk, write, sing and play sports. It is unfortunate that posture is, however, neglected by many people. Presently it is theorized that only people who were involved in activities such as sports, gymnastics as kids and those who were lucky to have concerned adults around them are today walking about with an upright posture.<br />
In childhood, posture can easily be corrected. This is mostly because children’s bones are to a degree malleable. However the older we get the more rigid our bones to get and the harder it gets for us to correct that offending posture.<br />
There are ways to make sure your child grows with the right posture. This could involve repeatedly correcting, getting an orthopedic to get a back brace and more importantly getting your child involved in exercises that strengthen the core muscles.<br />
Some of these exercises include;</p>
<h2>Yoga</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-12084" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Addriya-Kids-Yoga-Bow-Pose-1024x727.jpg" border="0" alt="Yoga" width="679" height="482" /><br />
Yoga when properly done focuses on different groups of muscles but most importantly your core muscles. Doing the right yoga routine should have your child naturally adopting the right posture naturally. It is therefore advantageous that there are many CDs as well as Yoga classes that are suitable for children of all ages. In addition, as an adult, you are free to join your child during many of these classes as it will enhance your relationship with your child as well as improve your own posture.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Pilate</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-12085" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/kidpilates000011885011_large-1024x682.jpg" border="0" alt="pilates" width="727" height="484" /><br />
Pilate exercises mostly aim at strengthening core muscles such as the back muscles as well as the gluteal and abdominal muscles. Pilates is almost like yoga but are more energy intensive. However, they are also suitable for children of all ages. Because they are said to be sometimes more energy intensive, it is important to make sure you are doing the right regimen your child’s age. Apart from correcting your child’s posture, Pilates could help adults with chronic back pain or poor posture. Therefore, it is a great exercise regimen to do with your child.</p>
<h2>Shoulder blade squeezes</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone  wp-image-12086" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/shoulder_bl_squeeze_set.jpg" border="0" alt="shoulder squeeze" width="710" height="696" /><br />
This exercise focuses on your rhomboids. The job of your rhomboid muscles is to pull back your shoulder blades, therefore, by making your child do this exercise regularly you would be helping him/her have a pulled-back shoulder posture (upright and not slouched forward). This posture helps improve breathing as well as voices.</p>

<p style="text-align: center"><span class="CategoryPagetxt">Pilates is suitable for people of all ages and all levels of fitness.<a href="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/sk-home-img.jpg"><img class=" size-medium wp-image-753 aligncenter" src="http://www.trainer.ae/articles/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/sk-home-img-300x125.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="125" /></a></span></p>

<p><span class="CategoryPagetxt"><strong>Positive effect of Pilates</strong></p>
<p>Muscle tone, increased strength and flexibility and improved overall mobility and precision at which you move. It&#8217;s perfect for people who like a meditative element in their exercise regimes.</p>
<p><strong>Why you&#8217;d Choose Not to do Pilates?</strong></p>
<p>Pilates will not help you lose weight.</span></p>
<p><span class="CategoryPagetxt"> You need at least three cardio workouts a week plus two to three Pilates classes and follow a healthy eating pattern for overall results. If you&#8217;re used to high intensity workouts with loud music and a pumped-up instructor than you may find the Pilates classes too slow and monotonous.</p>
<p><strong>What Will You Need?</strong></p>
<p>The Pilates equipment uses the resistance of springs to create effort. The principle piece of equipment is called the reformer and consists of a sliding platform anchored at one end of its frame with springs. The platform is moved by either pulling on ropes or pushing off from a stationary bar. Another Pilates machine (Rowing Machines) is called the cadillac and consists of a padded platform with a cage-like frame above it. From this frame various bars or straps are attached by springs.</p>
<p>Mat exercises primarily focus on strengthening the muscles of the trunk and hip and increasing the flexibility of both the spine and hips. Lately, pilates has merged with other movement techniques, such as yoga, or use of an exercise ball.<br />
