Dubai, United Arab Emirates - Wednesday, March 19th 2014 [ME NewsWire]
For a pregnant woman aiming for a level of fitness that will benefit both her and her baby, Pilates has been found to be one of the best exercise regimens; pregnant women who have tried Pilates have given it a thumbs-up.
Pilates is great at building core strength and it is a fact that if a pregnant woman’s abdominals, back and pelvic floor muscles are strengthened, they will support a more comfortable pregnancy and delivery.
Moreover, Pilates works wonders on new mothers wanting to get their pre-pregnancy figures back after the baby’s birth.
Fitness 360 understands the advantages of doing Pilates as it is extremely adaptable since most Pilates exercises can be altered as a pregnant woman’s body and abilities change. However, a pregnant woman must check with her GP before beginning the classes.
At Fitness 360°
The exercise professionals at Fitness 360° have both pre- and post- natal qualifications and each Pilates class is run solely for pregnant women.
Part of the regimen would include Pilates breathing exercises, which increases lung capacity and helps a pregnant woman deal with shortness of breath resulting from her growing baby pushing against her ribcage.
Fitness 360’s Pilates sessions will also focus on strengthening the core muscles of mom’s to be, to better support and protect their spines.
The Pilates sessions also lay emphasis on strengthening the pelvic floor muscle for it to bear the weight of the uterus.
As a pregnant woman’s body constantly changes, Pilates helps her to be aware of her posture, which keeps the aches and pains associated with back and joint problems at bay and generally helps her feel and look fit. Pilates also contributes to the efficient functioning of the body’s respiratory, circulatory and lymphatic functions.
Postnatal Pilates
Fatigue, weakened abdominals, breastfeeding demands and being preoccupied with the baby can make it difficult for women to regain their strength and figure, or tone their stomachs after giving birth, particularly after a C-section or a difficult delivery. The focus of the Pilates would be on strengthening pelvic floor muscles, deep abdominals, postural awareness in addition to general strength and muscle tone.
