Video 460 | Pilates Lean Legs (30 minutes) with Lauren Eirk
Pilates for Hips
•
30-Aug-2023
This workout showcases many of the classic Pilates mat exercises that target the lower body using nothing but bodyweight, high reps, and high effort in order to hypertrophy and "tone" the legs.
We will start with a standing warm-up, then move to the floor for several sidelying hip exercises. Always observe your own, unique range of motion. You may be able to move a lot further than me, or even less.
Never violate your range of motion to achieve ranges you do not have.
Next, we will work on some supine hip exercises for the hip flexor muscles and prone hip exercises to work hip extensors. We will finish in a seated hip flexor exercise. Use a blanket or pillow under the hips if this bothers your lower back. All movements will be done in time with the breathing cycles in a rhythmic format.
