The Ultimate Guide to Pilates: Discover Different Exercise Forms and Equipment

Pilates is a great form of exercise that focuses on strengthening the core, improving flexibility and increasing body awareness. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, there's a Pilates style to suit you. In this guide, we will explore the different types of Pilates training, such as Reformer Pilates , and recommend the best equipment and clothing for your practice.

Eat Pilates

Mat Pilates is the most traditional form of Pilates, performed on a mat using body weight for resistance. It is an excellent way to begin your Pilates journey as it requires minimal equipment.

For maximum comfort during your workout, we recommend wearing a comfortable sports bra like our Extended Sports Bra . This top provides lightweight support and is made from moisture-wicking material, perfect for low-intensity exercise.

Reform Pilates

Reformer Pilates involves the use of a machine called a reformer that adds resistance and variety to your exercises. This increases the intensity and can help tone the muscles more effectively.

During Reformer Pilates it is important to have clothes that allow full freedom of movement. Our Yoga Pants are ideal for this purpose. They are made of soft, breathable and moisture-wicking fabric with a drape at the bottom, creating a trendy look.

Pilates with Equipment

Adding small tools like balls, bands and rings can intensify your Pilates workout and target specific muscle groups.

To ensure you have the necessary support during these exercises, try our High Impact Sports Bra . It provides good support and comfort, which is essential during high-intensity exercises.

Pilates for Pregnant Women

Pilates is also great for pregnant women as it helps strengthen muscles and improve posture without straining the body.

Comfort is key here, so we recommend our Softy Flared Pants . These trousers are made of exclusive and soft material and have a high waist that can be folded down for extra comfort.

Choosing the Right Pilates Clothing

Regardless of the type of Pilates you choose, it is important to wear clothing that is comfortable and functional. Here are some of our top picks:

• Flex Sports Bra : With thin straps and removable pads, perfect for both everyday life and training.
• Peachy Scrunch Sports Bra : Has a nice scrunch effect at the front, which shapes the bust in the best way.
• Lunge Sports Bra : Seamless sports bra in nice and soft fabric, suitable for strength training with medium support.

Pilates for Rehabilitation

Pilates is often used in rehabilitation to rebuild strength and flexibility after injuries. The controlled movement and focus on the core helps improve posture and reduce pain.

During rehabilitation exercises, it is important to have clothes that do not irritate the skin. Our Softy Crop Top is made from material that is as soft as butter, making it comfortable to wear for longer periods of time.

Pilates and Mindfulness

Pilates is not just physical exercise; it is also a practice that promotes mental well-being. By focusing on breath and body awareness, Pilates can help reduce stress and improve mental clarity.

To create the right atmosphere during your training, you can consider our Power Seamless Top . It is made of moisture-wicking material and has an effective hold-in effect, making it ideal for both physical and mental training.
