About this listen
In this episode, Raphael and Heath challenge the myth that Pilates doesn’t build strength. They break down the science of strength adaptations, clarify what “strength” really means, and explain how Pilates can be a legitimate strength training method—when done right.
Key Topics:
- What counts as “strength” and how it’s measured
- Why effort (not burn or soreness) drives adaptation
- How load, reps, and proximity to failure matter more than equipment
- Debunking common myths around bodyweight vs. external load
- How to apply strength principles in Pilates for real results
Takeaway for Instructors:
You can—and should—train your clients for strength using Pilates. This episode will give you the tools to do it.
