Hello,
We're planning a piece for an upcoming issue of SWIMMER on the benefits and downsides of yoga vs. Pilates. We'll talk to experts of course, but wanted to see if anyone on the forums had a strong opinion one way or the other.
Thanks. Feel free to respond here, or message me privately.
Best,
Laura
I prefer pilates but I think yoga and the flexibility it gives you is important. With my team, we do versions of pilates core exercises as part of our dry land. The coach feels a strong core is essential to strong swimming - especially to make faster flip turns.
