This express Pilates workout using the stability ball workout will add a lot of variety and fun to your Pilates mat exercises.
We begin in a seated position, warming up with some spinal mobility exercises. The ball will get you off the floor to make the hips and low back feel more comfortable. Moving into a supine position, experience more resisted range of motion wiht a new take on the Pilates 100's!
As we move to the ground, we easily transition to a supine elevated leg position to move from abdominal to hip related moves. We will do a sidelying hip series for the outer thighs, followed by a prone over ball section for some effective backwards bends.
The ball allows you to move freely into positions that cannot be achieved when practicing on the floor due to the increased range of motion we feel. Transitioning from one exercise to the next becomes so much easier and enjoyable! This workout is quick and effective!
