Since Pilates builds muscle slowly with a focus on lengthening and stretching the body, it’s become synonymous with a more toned and defined physique.
Visible muscle tone comes from both building lean muscle and reducing body fat. Pilates alone may not be the most efficient path to fat loss, but it prepares the body for higher-intensity exercise and supports better movement patterns. For optimal toning, Pilates works best alongside cardiovascular exercise and dietary changes.
So, instead of making you bulkier, Pilates tones your body by building lean, functional muscle and improving the overall shape of your body.
After graduating from The Citadel, I began working with middle and high school football teams to develop functional strength and conditioning programs. Soon after, I began coaching amateur and professional MMA athletes.

It’s a common misconception that you can “tone” muscles. Muscles by nature are lean mass – they can only grow or shrink in size.
This means even at rest you are burning more calories. Pilates can prepare your body for strength training and cardiovascular full spectrum light sad exercise by waking up your muscles and improving the efficiency of your movements.
There are so many benefits of Pilates! One of key things Pilates helps with is your breathing efficiency. The muscles that you use for breathing, such as your diaphragm, are linked to the muscles of your core.
