Скачать или смотреть Pilates Reformer: Standing Side Splits

Welcome back to the channel! Today we are hitting the Pilates Reformer for a fantastic lower-body burner: Standing Side Splits.

As an Integrated Wellness and Movement Coach, this is one of my favorite exercises to program for building strength in the inner thighs (adductors) and glutes, while simultaneously putting a massive demand on your deep core to keep you stable.

You will notice I add wide arm sweeps as the carriage moves out and in—this adds an extra layer of coordination and challenges your balance even further.

Form focus for this movement:
✨ Control the Return: It is easy to push the carriage out, but the real work happens when you resist the springs on the way back in. Don't let the carriage just snap back!
✨ Stay Tall: Keep your spine long, your chest proud, and your core braced.
✨ Even Weight Distribution: Try to keep your weight centered rather than leaning entirely onto the stable wooden platform.

(And yes, I had to pause mid-set to throw on a Santa hat to bring a little extra holiday cheer to the workout! 🎅 Moving your body should always be fun!)

If you felt the burn in today's session, please give this video a thumbs up and hit subscribe so we can continue to move and grow together.
