Pilates For Sports
TRACK & FIELD
POWER WITH CONTROL
Track and Field events require explosive power and control.
To achieve maximum power, an athlete needs strong, balanced flexible muscles. If flexibility is restricted then the amount of power you can produce will be impacted, and it will increase your chance of injury - it's so frustrating not being able to train because of injury.
Control is achieved by developing a strong core. If your core is weak you will lose power and you won't be able to run, throw or jump as far. From a strong stable base you are able to transfer all of the power you generate into your movement.
This is where Pilates for Sports helps, as we strengthen an athlete's core, enable them to develop strong balanced muscles and teach them how to apply this core strength to their movement, so they compete with:
- Maximum efficiency
- Optimal power output, and
- Reduced chance of injury
So why not take the Pilates For Sports challenge to "Be Your Best".

POWER
Pilates For Sports will strengthen your core, develop strong balanced muscles around the joints and enable you to develop a strong stable base. This will enable you to generate more power and run faster.

EFFICIENCY
An inefficient running stride means that you are using more energy than you need to run at that pace. Pilates for Sports teaches runners to be aware of how they are currently running and then helps runners build a strong core to ensure that every bit of power they generate goes into their running stride. This comes about through the strengthening of the powerhouse, knowledge of how to engage it and the correct tracking of the arms and legs. This controlled efficient movement will also reduce the chance of injury.

STABILITY
To help you understand the benefits that a strong and stable core can provide to athlete's, picture a cannon on a canoe out in the middle of a lake. Now, if that cannon fires, it won’t be able to shoot very far because the canoe will wobble and capsize, as it can’t handle the force of the cannon. In this scenario the runners arms and legs are the cannon and their wobbly core is the canoe on a lake, which can't handle the power being produced because of its instability. However, put that cannon on a concrete platform and the result is very different. From that stable base, maximum power can be directed to the cannonball, resulting in the cannon being able to fire to it’s full potential. Just as an athlete with a strong and stable core can transfer the maximum force generated to run fast, throw further or jump higher.

BALANCE
Many of the issues an athlete experiences, arise from muscle imbalance. When we talk about an athlete having a muscle imbalance, we mean that some muscles are overworking and other muscles are not doing their fair share of the work. The impact on performance is inefficient movement, a slower pace and an increased chance of injury. This is where Pilates can help. Pilates is a perfect way to cross train, as it moves the body in all of the directions it is designed to move, therefore restoring balance.

RANGE OF MOTION
If the range of motion in the shoulders, hips, knees or ankles are limited then it will increase the likelihood of pain and injury. The Pilates For Sports program works to develop an effective range of motion in the whole body thereby reducing your chance of pain and injury.

GOOD POSTURE
Poor posture will impact an athlete's ability to generate power and maintain good form throughout their event. Pilates for Sports is designed to improve an athlete's posture, which will also improve their performance and help to reduce pain and injury.

REDUCED PAIN & INJURY
If your muscles around a joint are unbalanced and your core is weak, it means that some muscles will have to overwork to produce a movement. Over time this can lead to pain and even injury. Pilates For Sports will strengthen your core and help you to develop strong balanced muscles so that you can run efficiently with good form and with decreased chance of pain and injury.
GOOD FORM
Running is all about technique yet many of us don't really think about form - we just run.Pilates for Sport makes you aware of how you are currently running, teaches you how you should be running and then gives you the tools to improve your performance.
