Why is Pilates good for men?

Pilates is a comprehensive head-to-toe workout, but it is often misidentified as women's exercise.

Pilates was actually designed by a man, German born gymnast and boxer Joseph Pilates.

Many famous male professional athletes, such as Tiger Woods (professional golfer), Jason Kidd (NBA basketball star), Curt Schilling (MLB pitcher) and Ruben Brown (NFL offensive lineman), have added Pilates to their training programs, in order to enhance strength, coordination and flexibility by developing their Powerhouse.

Most men who exercise frequently are strong, but their muscles are incredibly tense and tight.
For this reason they likely have difficulty doing a strength and reach test,or sitting straight with their legs stretched out in front of them.
This is because the male hamstrings tend to be very tight and inflexible. The answer is Pilates; which sculpts the body from the outside - making tight areas more agile. It also improves and makes many functional activities a lot easier on your muscles and joints.

Pilates trains key physical performance factors including posture, balance, stability, flexibility, coordination, endurance and functional strength.

Pilates does not contain a ton of boring repetitious exercises. You only repeat a few repetitions with good form before moving on to the next movement.

Any man can practice Pilates in order to gain explosive strength, to widen their range of motion and flexibility, to build stamina and boost energy.
