Pilates is a fun way to strengthen the body’s core muscles, including the abdominal muscles, back muscles, and hips. It helps improve flexibility, joint mobility, and posture. This method of exercise has recently gained popularity. Some people enjoy Pilates and see incredible results. But some people are apprehensive about the whole thing.

There are many myths about Pilates that make people not pursue it. These myths claim that this form of exercise is only for people with medical conditions, or those who are flexible or females. However, these myths are not to be trusted.

To help you steer clear of these misconceptions, Pilates Core Center has debunked some of the most widely believed myths about Pilates.

Myth 1: Pilates is only meant for flexible people
Contrary to popular belief, anyone can pursue Pilates without worrying about their flexibility. One needs to keep in mind that it is essential to begin somewhere. Pilates is a great technique to increase flexibility, so get started immediately if you desire a more flexible body.

Myth 2: Pilates is for women
You might be surprised to know that Pilates was developed by a male, Joseph Pilates, and was first used by men as rehabilitation for war warriors in the 1920s. Pilates is an excellent exercise for men who want to improve their form and strength.

Myth 3: Pilates exercises are slow
Pilates workouts are precise and intense. Beginner Pilates sessions are designed to help you perfect your form and ensure that each action is accurate and effective. When the movement is perfected, it can flow more quickly. Don’t forget, slow and steady wins the race!
