Mobility must be a pillar in our workouts. It ensures we stay injury-free, recover from our training sessions, and do not suffer pain. Unfortunately, only a few men pay attention to mobility, and they believe that yoga and pilates are activities that only women perform. Today’s guest, Dr. Eoin Everard, is the creator of Sports Pilates. This practice will help you with mobility as well as stability, flexibility, and motor control.
Dr. Eoin Everard is an Irish chartered physiotherapist and Pilates instructor with a Ph.D. in Human Movement. Eion used his background in physio, Pilates, and his own struggles with injury to develop the Sports Pilates program. Besides, he works in a clinic in Ireland that focuses on helping people over 40 and active sporting individuals.
With Sports Pilates, you must build endurance, technique, and stability before concentrating on specific body areas. Don’t skip phases, and you will see great results that will also improve your strength training routines.
Start now. You won’t regret it.
“It takes no more time or effort to do the right type of training as the wrong type of training.”
—Dr. Eoin Everard
