on the same transverse plane
Can the spine be neutral when the pelvis is not?
When the spine is in neutral the pelvis must be neutral, however, the pelvis may be
neutral when the spine is not
What are the pros of using a neutral pelvis?
encourages muscular development and correct muscle recruitment
teaches efficient posture and ideal alignment
pelvis alignment influences body segments above and below it

-oxygenates blood
-improve circulation
-calm the mind and body
-encourage concentration
-recruit the appropriate muscles for the movements
-provide an 'inner' rhythm for the movements
What happens during the breathing cycle?
inhale- diaphragm lowers and enlarges cavity. pressure inside the lungs is lower than
the pressure outside
exhale- diaphragm relaxes and decreases volume of cavity. increases pressure of the
lungs and equalizes the pressure to the outside (air is forced out)
How much of the respiratory effort is the diaphragm responsible for?
,75%
What kind of breathing does Pilates use? and why?
lateral breathing of "intercostal breathing". it maintains ab contraction while performing
exercises during inhalation.
