Pilates for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Home Work From Session 2

Hi guys,

Here is the home work from yesterdays BJJ Pilates class.

I am not going to lie pilates hurts (me)  BAD, and is, at times, super frustrating but my posture has dramatically improved, but I am interested in what effect this has on my performance in bjj training, although this is super challenging to measure.

The idea with the pilates is to build the strength of core muscle to improve power and operate more efficiently. At present I have achieve conscious incompetence, i.e. I know wen i am not engaging my core abdominal muscles, and I do feel a difference.

I have been told that there are no short term wins with this, pilates has to be incorporated into your daily routines, I just want to see if this is actually worth the time and effort.

I will be writing a full review, (as with the BJJ kettle bells) once the 5 week trial has finished.
