“I don’t like Pilates.” Okay, but here’s the thing: Pilates can help you target all three — build bone density, increase muscle mass and support a strong heart. It’s a one-of-a-kind workout that can build strength from the inside out.
Pilates builds strong BONES 🦴
Bones are constantly adapting to the way you move, load and challenge your body. Exercise that includes weight-bearing or strength training is the best way to build bone density. Pilates uses spring resistance machines, your body for weight-bearing, and specialized props to add resistance. The benefits of building strong bones vary by age:
🔸Age 19–29: Build peak bone mass
🔸Age 30–49: Prevent natural loss of bone mass
🔸Age 50+: Slow the loss of bone
Pilates builds strong MUSCLES 💪
Strong muscles support strong bones. Muscles work against resistance — whether that comes from your body weight, springs, bands or weights. Strong muscles are your body’s armour for your joints, bones, and metabolic health, to protect against injuries, joint strain, and premature bone loss. Muscle and bone strength go hand in hand.
🔸Age 19–29: Build peak muscle strength
🔸Age 30–49: Prevent natural muscle mass loss
🔸Age 50+: Maintain functional strength
Pilates supports a healthy HEART ❤️
Cardio is critical for heart health, but Pilates can support a healthy heart and improve cardiorespiratory fitness through targeted breathwork that boosts circulation and oxygen delivery. This calms the nervous system and lowers stress hormones, keeping your heart healthy and reducing your risk of heart disease.
Benefits of cardio training by age:
🔸Age 19–29: Build strong heart health
🔸Age 30–49: Chronic disease risks
🔸Age 50+: Maintain heart health
The goal isn’t simply to exercise more. It’s to do the right type of movement your body needs to support you at every age so you can keep doing life.
That’s why we’re launching Pilates-infused strength training and Cardio classes soon.
