What are the benefits of Pilates in Kansas City for cyclists?
While your legs do most of the heavy lifting during your cycling, riding with a stronger core will make the most of your power and energy. This is your lower body will push against a strong core, transferring more power to the pedals.
Another key element of Pilates is proper alignment, including that of the pelvis. Subtle torso movements in Pilates routines help to strengthen the muscles that relate directly to cycling, like transverse abdominis, rectus abdominis, external and internal oblique and erector spinae.
Pilates is also great for improved muscle flexibility, posture, and balance, all of which should help any cyclist’s form. It can also help to prevent pain during strenuous rides. When you get tired during a long ride, your chest may drop, causing your next to be strained. You also may start to put more weight into your arms if your core isn’t strong. You can experience pain in your lower back. Creating a strong core and achieving self awareness of your body during Pilates training can help to improve all of these ailments.
