Strengthening Exercises With A Pilates Ring

Get ready to strengthen and stretch your entire body with a Pilates Ring! This simple tool can be an effective way to improve your balance, strength, and overall health - adding extra resistance for increased challenge. Strengthen those core muscles that are essential for bodily stability.

Arm Exercises

  • Seated Ring Squeeze
Start by putting your arms out of chest height, shoulder width. Do little pulses squeezing the ring. If you want to make it a little challenging, have your palms flat, straight out.
