Pilates simultaneously strengthens and stretches your entire body in a low-impact format. Think resistance training meets yoga, with added emphasis on precision and breathwork.
Limited variety of exercises compared to the gym which reduces the ability to progressively overload the exercise. Progressive overload is one of the critical components of gaining muscle mass.
If you are doing Pilates with equipment, such as the Reformer or Trapeze Table, you may often be working the muscles in a way that they are lengthening under tension.
This includes eccentric training, which lengthens and strengthens muscles without adding bulk. Improved body awareness and alignment also contribute to a leaner, more upright look.
Any exercise that engages and challenges your muscles can contribute to toning. Strength training exercises, including Pilates, can be beneficial for building lean muscle mass and toning the body.
Slow down the pace and target muscle toning and lengthening. Power Tower uses the tower springs, a stable mat, and Pilates accessories to incorporate flexibility with a gentler approach to your BODYBAR workout.
Unlike workouts that isolate just one area or rely on heavy weights, Pilates uses controlled resistance the body house and intentional movement to engage muscles deeply and evenly. The result? Better posture, more definition, and a stronger, more stable body overall.
