More Springs, More Strength: Why Underloading Is Failing Our Clients
Update: 2025-08-04
Description
It’s time to raise the bar—and the springs. In this powerful episode, we’re challenging a common but harmful habit in Pilates studios: underloading clients. Whether it’s doing footwork on a single spring “to feel the core” or using light resistance out of fear of injury, we’re actually holding people back—especially aging clients who need strength the most. We’ll break down why footwork should start on five springs, why hands-in-straps needs real resistance, and how progressive overload isn’t just smart—it’s life-saving. We also dive into a groundbreaking 2025 study showing the strong correlation between quad strength and lower mortality rates in older adults. Strength isn’t optional. It’s essential.
