Can I do Pilates on The Firm Wave?
Yes, you can. In fact, I think the Firm Wave is such a versatile piece of equipment and can add so much variety to a Pilates routine, that I regularly teach a whole class on one!
If you already do Pilates, you’ll know how great it is for working your core, flattening your stomach and sculpting long, lean muscles. The Firm Wave Workout adds an extra challenge to your body, and you can use it in lots of different ways. Curve side up, the Wave gives a non-moving surface to work on, while still providing challenge to your balance, which makes your muscles work harder. Try standing on 1 leg on the Wave and doing knee lifts with the other leg – you’ll see what I mean!
At mat level, the Wave is even more versatile. Lie over The Wave on your front to work your back muscles harder than you would lying on the floor; balance on your side for leg lifts, and lie on your back over the Wave to add extra work for those ab crunches! Attach exercise bands to the Wave to perform Power Pilates moves by adding more resistance; tone muscles and burn lots of calories in a short time!
So whether you are experienced at Pilates or just starting, the Wave can make a big difference to your workout, supercharging your moves to get that great shaping and toning that only Pilates can give – fast! And The Wave costs under $100 – you don’t get many Pilates sessions with an Instructor for that low price!
All the best,
