Reformer Pilates for Runners

Reformer Pilates for Runners

Did you know that Reformer Pilates can level up your Running? Whether you're looking for a faster speed, injury prevention or recovery here are our top 3 exercises to include!

 

1. Glute Bridge

Glute and Hamstring strength and activation as well as reinforcing the core and back!

2. Scooter
 
This move works on developing hip stability and control. It's a great move to correct imbalances and enhance propulsion in your run.

3. Planks

Love to hate them but Plank exercises build deep core strength and improve posture which helps you to run more efficiently. A stronger core means less energy wasted, better balance, and fewer injuries!

Incorporate these 3 moves into your routine 2-3 times a week either pre run for activation or on rest days for Strength and Conditioning and watch your self hit those new PBs!
