You should always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition or your specific situation.

However, a combination of various forms of exercise and a healthy diet is essential for achieving a toned body.

For example, it is common for people to stand in a resting position with their lower back arched, which means that their stomach protrudes. Standing in a way that reduces the arch of the lower back prevents the stomach from sticking out.

Many people find the best results come from a mix of both, which is why The Pilates Circuit incorporates both Reformer and bodyweight-based movement into personalized training plans.

But make sure to not overdo it. Just because you have a “problem” area you want to target, does not mean you should be spending your workouts only focussing on that area. 

So, how does it actually reshape the body? And how long does it take to see results? Let’s dive into the science behind it.

Comparing Pilates to the gym is like comparing apples to oranges. They both offer benefits, but in different ways.

If you’re new to Pilates, aim for 2-3 times a week to start and gradually increase as you become more comfortable with the exercises (5). If you have specific areas of your body that you want to tone, consider targeting those muscles more frequently within your weekly routine.

This is where a healthy diet comes into play. By consuming the right amount of calories and nutrients, you can support your body in reducing overall body fat and revealing the toned muscles that Pilates helps to build (2).

In the world of medicine, physiology and sports science there is actually pelo such term as ‘toned’ or ‘toning’. There is the concept of a muscle having a resting ‘tone’ but this has nothing to do with how you look or how strong you are.

This means even at rest you are burning more calories. Pilates can prepare your body for strength training and cardiovascular exercise by body haus waking up your muscles and improving the efficiency of your movements.

Both methods work, but if you’re looking for faster toning results, the Reformer provides extra resistance for deeper muscle engagement.
