@pilates_bynate: If your wrists are always the first thing you feel in Pilates, don’t just assume you have “weak wrists.” Sometimes a few small adjustments can completely change how an exercise feels. Here’s what I want you to check: ✨Your wrist position When your hands are in the straps, keep your hand in line with your forearm rather than letting the wrist bend back. ✨How you’re using your hands In plank or hands-on-carriage positions, spread your fingers and press through the whole hand. Try not to dump all your weight into the heel of your palm. ✨ Your upper-body support Actively push the carriage or mat away from you. Your shoulders, arms and upper back should be helping support the position — your wrists shouldn’t be doing all the work. ✨ The variation you choose If a high plank puts too much pressure on your wrists, come down to your forearms. You can still challenge your core without forcing a position that doesn’t feel right. And remember: your wrists need time to build strength and tolerance to load too. Discomfort isn’t something you need to “push through” just because you’re doing Pilates. Adjust the exercise, build gradually and focus on moving well. Save this for your next class — and send it to someone who is always complaining about their wrists in Pilates 🫶🏻 #pilates #pilatesinstructor #pilatescommunity #pilatesjourney #pilatespractice
