Lunch Hour Exercise Idea: Pilates

When you’ve got a sandwich in your bag and lunch hour all for yourself, there’s always enough time for Pilates. If you could find a nearby private or group lesson, don’t hesitate to just stretch your body and let it sweat even in the middle of the day! Most of these classes are under an hour, so you could still do it before resuming to work. You’ll feel more focused and energised!

Pilates

Pilates is wonderful because it:

  • Stabilises muscles to ensure the most optimal posture.

  • Lengthens and stretches all the major muscle groups in the body in a balanced fashion.

  • Improves flexibility, strength, balance and body awareness.

  • Increases lung capacity and circulation through deep breathing.

  • Improves concentration and increases body awareness.
