Contents of the 14 training plans
Training plan BASICS 1
The following exercises you will learn and train with the BASICS 1 training plan of the Pilates course. Most of the exercises are from the Basic to Intermediate difficulty level.
The exercises are selected so that everyone can easily get started with Pilates. One training session lasts between 30 and 40 minutes. If you wish, you can do several sessions in one day.
Pelvic Tilt
Hip Rolls
Knee Sway
Spinal rotation
Every day you learn or repeat one or two exercises. Then you do the Basic Workout CORE. You already complete this workout on the first training day.
All the exercises listed above are deepened with the workout. You will notice that you can do the exercises a little better every day.
Sometimes we get the question why the workout is the same every day. And that this is probably boring.
We think it's very, very important that you do the exercises as accurately as possible. You won't learn that if you keep doing new workouts.
You will enjoy experiencing the workout getting better and better. You don't have to think about new exercises or a new exercise sequence.
If you think this one isn't the right way to go, or you're just too bored with it, on YouTube there are plenty of free Pilates workouts to hop along. Whether you learn Pilates the right way is another question...
A few well thought out movements, done correctly in a balanced sequence, are better than hours of sloppy practice or forced contortions.
