How Pilates Can Improve Your Running

Written By Tom Wray

Pilates isn't just for dancers—it's a game-changer for runners. By focusing on your core and posture, Pilates can make you a stronger, more efficient runner while reducing your risk of injury.

  • Stronger Core: A stable core allows you to run with better form, leading to more power and less wasted energy.

  • Improved Posture: Prevents slumping and helps you maintain an upright position, which improves breathing and stride length.

  • Better Balance: Reduces your risk of trips and falls, especially on uneven terrain.

  • Injury Prevention: Strengthens the stabilizing muscles around your joints, protecting your knees, hips, and ankles.
