A couple of weeks into phase 2 we begin diving into the 'good stuff' aka progressive pilates exercises for the core, pelvic floor, upper and lower body. Between week 8-12 (Stage 5) we add heavier resistance, add more moving parts to our core exercises and challenge our control in a variety of positions.
Core progressions: This session involves single and double leg table top progressions in all supine core work, full forward and side planks as well as heavy supermans and hydrants.
For more detailed training on Pelvic Floor and Core contractions see our two videos on "your Pelvic Floor" and "Abdominal Seperation / your Core'.
