    Exercise of the week! Pilates 100~

    by fitgurl (04/02/2007 - 19:34)

    Pilates ~movement of the week~ THE HUNDRED!

  • This is the classic Pilates Hundred Exercise.
  • Why One Hundred? - Because after ten inward and outward breath cycles, you have pumped your hands up and down a total of 100 times!
  • It used to be the warm up exercise for all Pilates mat classes.
    2. Breathe in and zip and hollow.
    3.  
  • (Breathing out): curl your chest up off the floor refer (PAC with Arms for details).
  • Breathe in and then (beathing out): straighten your legs so that your toes are softly pointing to the ceiling. Keep your legs close to vertical! -stops your lower back arching.
  • (Breathing in and still zipping): Pump your arms up and down for a count of five. Keep your scapulas anchored and fingers lengthening away.
  • (Breathing out): pump your arms up and down for another count of five.
  • Repeat steps four and five for a total of five to ten times.
