Bone strengthening with Pilates

Описание: Standing Pilates using weights.
Position and posture are really important to ensure you don’t strain your back or any other part of your body. So be mindful of your posture throughout and start with light weights or even small bottles of water.

Standing exercises with weights are often referred to as weight-bearing exercises, and they’re brilliant for looking after our bones as we get older. When we stand and move against gravity, our bones receive gentle stress — and that’s a good thing. It signals the body to maintain and even build bone density, helping to keep our skeleton strong and resilient.

When we add weights into the mix, the benefits increase even more. The extra resistance gives your muscles a bit more work to do, and as your muscles pull on the bones, it stimulates them to grow stronger too. Think of it as giving your bones a friendly reminder to stay firm, sturdy, and supportive. This is especially important for women in midlife and beyond, when bone density naturally begins to decline
