Winsor Pilates is the most popular of all contemporary Pilates exercises to ever exist. Like any other contemporary Pilates, Winsor Pilates is another attempt to modify the exercise itself but still adapt and apply the same concept that the original. The difference between the two is that the original Pilates’ main goal is to improve your body’s core while Winsor Pilates focuses on weight loss, body sculpting and flat abs.
Winsor Pilates is developed by an expert Pilates instructor Mari Winsor but her approach is more on weight issues and body trimming, which is quite effective for some. In fact, her students often claim that her Pilates technique delivers their desired results in a very short amount of time. This type of exercise is best known for its innovative dynamic sequencing system. Dynamic sequencing is a series of Pilates positions strategically arranged to coordinate the body with the intensity and pacing of the exercises while they are performed. This way it challenges the body and pushes it to its greatest possible limit.
All Winsor Pilates programs are structured with levels, meaning a beginner should not start with the advanced workout routines and also not expect back exercises from a bun sculpting session. To date, Winsor Pilates has more than 30 titles under their name in DVD and CD formats, all of which are targeted exercises which you can follow after you finish mastering the previous one
Winsor Pilates is first and foremost a variation of the original Pilates program so if you are seeking rehabilitative effects of Pilates, the Winsor variant is probably not for you. This exercise regime concentrates on abdominal, lower back, hips and bun muscles, the trouble areas for those who are trying to lose weight and achieve sculpted body at the same time. By engaging in Winsor Pilates every day, one can successfully take inches off these trouble areas of the body, since the exercises are designed to burn fat. However, there is a catch to it and this is not, in any way, to be ignored by someone practicing Winsor Pilates: exercises should be done exactly as they are, including sequencing and tempo. Failing to do so will not deliver desired results for the participants.
Aside from great looking results one can achieve through practicing Winsor Pilates, it can also improve your overall health which includes good blood circulation. It is highly recommended to do this type of Pilates for 20 minutes, 6 days a week in order to achieve results faster. Exercise positions are doable and not complicated for beginners, gradually progressing once you improve your muscle tone.
Although you can train with a certified Winsor Pilates instructor, there are many videos you can bring and try at home. This can be very convenient for mothers experiencing post-pregnancy weight issues or for busy individuals trying to squeeze in some exercise routines within their daily lives.
