Pilates for men

Pilates is a comprehensive head-to-toe workout, but it is often misidentified as women's exercise.

Pilates was actually designed by a man, German born gymnast and boxer Joseph Pilates, for men.

Many famous male professional athletes, such as Tiger Woods (professional golfer), Jason Kidd (NBA basketball star), Curt Schilling (MLB pitcher) and Ruben Brown (NFL offensive lineman), have added Pilates to their training programs, in order to enhance strength, coordination and flexibility by developing their Powerhouse.

Most men who exercise frequently are strong, but their muscles are incredibly tense and tight.
For this reason they likely have difficulty doing a strength and reach test,or sitting straight with their legs stretched out in front of them.
This is because the male hamstrings tend to be very tight and inflexible. The answer is Pilates; which sculpts the body from the outside - making tight areas more agile. It also improves and makes many functional activities a lot easier on your muscles and joints.

Pilates trains key physical performance factors including posture, balance, stability, flexibility, coordination, endurance and functional strength.

Pilates does not contain a ton of boring repetitious exercises. You only repeat a few repetitions with good form before moving on to the next movement.

Any man can practice Pilates in order to gain explosive strength, to widen their range of motion and flexibility, to build stamina and boost energy.

Here is what one of our male clients is saying about his experience at
Pilates Space Florida:

When I thought of Pilates, I pictured these big spine balls and little pink weights, so I cringed when my Chiropractor told me to give Pilates a try.

My back pain was getting worse, so I thought take a free session, it can't hurt...

Well...I was so mistaken, Pilates Space is a serious studio...this is real Pilates.
After only 2 months Pilates has proven to be so beneficial, that I just quit the gym! i've achieved greater overall strength, muscle tone and flexibility than I ever got from weightlifting. Pilates is intense, challenging & rewarding, my back pain is gone and I lost
5 pounds so far.
So, to all you men out there, give yourself a new challenge and try Pilates. I promise you from my experience it will make a difference in how you look and feel.
And I promise: Kerstin will never hand you pink weights!
