This is achieved by using your own body weighty and light equipment. The term light equipment may make you think it will be easy but believe me when used correctly some exercises are very difficult. <\/font><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.anatomypilates.ie\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/No-Women.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-481\" height=\"184\" src=\"http:\/\/www.anatomypilates.ie\/website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/No-Women.png\" title=\"No Women\" width=\"168\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;\"><font size=\"3\"><font color=\"#000000\"><font face=\"Calibri\">Pilates\/Core training is excellent for improving sporting performance. If your core is strong it enables you get more power from your kicks \/ swings (i.e. Football, Hurling, tennis, Golf, etc.). You can fend off and receive tackles better and it reduces the risk of getting injured. <o:p><\/o:p><\/font><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;\"><font size=\"3\"><font color=\"#000000\"><font face=\"Calibri\">Flexibility training is essential for improving sporting performance. It helps you improve your range of motion which in turn improves sporting performance. Take for example increased hamstring length and the benefits you can achieve. Less risk of being injured, this enabling you to continue training without having to stop, therefore you don&rsquo;t lose your fitness and or your place on the team. You have a much better follow through when you kick the ball, increasing your kicking distance. You are a more efficient runner as there is less resistance .Your stride length can be longer thus increasing speed.<o:p><\/o:p><\/font><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;\"><font size=\"3\"><font color=\"#000000\"><font face=\"Calibri\">The class also incorporate many different exercises used in rehabilitating many different injuries.
