PILATES EXERCISES TO WARM UP
LEGS AND HIPS II
How to performance the Pilates exercise
Lift the leg with the knee bent until it gets the chest height, and then go back to the start position. You must try to keep the hips under the shoulders and the head in between the shoulders. Remember to keep a strong core, tight butt, and straight back, and use your breathing.
How to performance the Pilates exercise
Like in the previous exercise rise the leg at the same time that the knee is bent but once it has gotten the height of your navel open the bent knee towards one side so that you are warming yup the muscles for the next work outs. Once you have opened it, close it slowly and smoothly keeping the knee at your belly button height and take it down and recover the starting position. Remember to use your balance, use your breathing, your core power, your back must be straight all the time and your butt in and strong, without allowing your hips to move forwards.
