by Neighborhood Trainers Finding a trainer is a personal choice

While yoga and Pilates are known to be two highly beneficial workout routines and share many similarities with one another, they are also very different, and deserve a look to see how they diverge. What is certain is that both of these fitness routines have all kinds of benefits to offer to those who practice them.

Sure, the two may have some differences, but both yoga and Pilates have the capability to help folks improve their core strength, as well as other aspects of their physical fitness. Ready to get familiar with how these two workout methods could come in handy for you?

A Stronger Core Through Yoga

Yoga is known for a lot of benefits, but did you know it can certainly come in handy when it comes to strengthening your core? Here are some of the main types of yoga you can practice to work on improving your core strength:

·         Power yoga

Power yoga is known as the more “fitness-oriented” version of yoga. It has sequences that will really get your blood pumping, including arm balancing and handstands.

·         Restorative yoga

This form of yoga is thought to help improve tension in your muscles. When doing restorative yoga, you can expect to use props such as straps and yoga belts to keep you in position.

You can get started taking advantage of these benefits of yoga whenever you are ready, by reaching out to a yoga Bronx instructor anytime.

Achieving Strength Through Pilates

Yoga has its own set of techniques for working on your core strength, but what about Pilates? There are a good number of ways you can work on yourself with Pilates, as well. Here are a few of the ways you can expect Pilates to help you work on your core muscles.

·         Pilates involves supporting your own body weight.

A good deal of the moves in Pilates involve supporting your own weight, which can help build up and work out muscles all over your body.

·         Pilates focuses on core strength, with added benefits.

A good deal of Pilates is focused on supporting your core strength, but it also is able to help work on your overall strength, your muscle tone, and even give you a hand in calorie burn.

If you want to get started on some of these techniques, consider going to a Pilates Queens class to see what it is all about. 

Which of These Methods is the Right One for Your Needs?

There are so many ways each of these fitness methods can come in handy. You can either choose to work on yoga or Pilates for your core strength, or you can think about incorporating both of them into your workouts for maximum training. Either way, you will be able to give your core the training it needs to get stronger.
