(Celeb Health) Singer Jeon Somi Pilates
Singer Jeon Somi showed off her extraordinary flexibility while doing Pilates.
On the 4th, Jeon So-mi posted a photo of herself immersed in exercise on her SNS. In the photo, Jeon Somi is lifting one leg upside down.
In addition, he attracted attention by revealing his slim waist line. Jeon Somi is 172cm tall and has a slim body weighing 46kg.
Pilates to improve posture and strengthen core muscles
Pilates, which Jeon So-mi chose to take care of her body, strengthens the core muscles located in the back and abdomen and improves posture and body shape. In particular, proper abdominal breathing, which is emphasized in Pilates, has the effect of increasing metabolic activity and reducing body fat.
Pilates is largely divided into props and equipment Pilates. First, props Pilates uses tools such as foam rollers, rings, and large and small balls when performing movements. The advantage is that you can easily do it at home without space restrictions as long as you have the tools.
However, since body movements and applied force may vary depending on body weight, strength, and flexibility, exercise beginners may experience difficulty. Another difficulty that can be felt is that, unlike Pilates that uses equipment, there is no place to rely on when establishing a posture.
On the other hand, in Pilates equipment, you can receive help from equipment when performing movements, so you can maintain a stable posture even if you lack strength and flexibility. Also, by using the equipment, complex and difficult postures that cannot be done on the mat, such as hanging upside down like Jeon So-mi, are possible. As a result, even muscles that are not normally used can be used evenly.
The device that Jeon So-mi is using in the photo appears to be a ‘reformer’. The reformer, which allows for full-body exercise, helps develop strength, flexibility, and sense of balance because it receives spring resistance when moving the device with the arms or legs. There are over 100 movements that can be applied using the reformer, so if you use it well, you can enjoy a variety of exercises with just one device.
Warming up is important to prevent injury… If you feel pain during exercise, stop.
As with other exercises, if your posture is wrong when doing Pilates, it can put strain on your joints, ligaments, and muscles and cause pain. In particular, if you perform excessive movements while your core muscles are weak, the risk of injury increases, so if you are a beginner, it is best to train your core muscles first under the guidance of an expert.
In particular, you can prevent injuries by loosening your muscles and joints with sufficient stretching and warm-up before exercising. If you have recently had surgery or have joint pain, you should start exercising after consulting with your doctor. If you feel pain or discomfort during exercise, you should stop immediately.
