Welcome to Episode 68 of the Movement Logic podcast! In this episode, Sarah is joined by soon to be Doctor of Physical Therapy Adam McAtee, founder of Evidence-Based Pilates, a continuing education platform for Pilates instructors. Sarah and Adam discuss long and lean, whether Pilates can contribute to bone density improvement, and why the hundred is Sarah’s least favorite one.
In this episode you will learn:
- Common myths often heard from clients and instructors alike about Pilates, including using lighter springs to strengthen smaller muscles
- Why Pilates instructors confuse aesthetics and functionality and how freeing it can be to let them go
- How the variety of Pilates styles now available is a positive, not a negative
- The relationship of Contrology to modern day Pilates
- Why it’s not that useful to your students and clients to name where all of your exercises come from
- The difference between instructor-centered care and client-centered care
- The importance of meeting clients where they are, even if you’re uncomfortable
- What heavy load could look like on a reformer instead of the typical endurance based exercises
- If anyone can make accurate claims about what the Hundred is for
- How any Pilates exercise might be useful for one particular population
And more!
