The Swimming
About
Swimming is a Pilates move that strengthens your back and core. It helps improve your balance and stability by moving your arms and legs in a controlled way.
How to The Swimming
Starting Position
1. Get ready in a prone position on the floor.
2. Slightly lift your arms and legs off the floor and stretch your body long.
3. Extend your arms forward and your legs straight back.
Proper Form
1. Raise your right arm and left leg while lowering the opposite arm and leg.
2. Next, raise your left arm and right leg and move them in a crossing motion.
3. Adjust to ensure your waist does not bend excessively and repeat rhythmically.
Breathing Technique
Breathe naturally by inhaling when you lift your limbs and exhaling when you lower them.
Precautions
1. Engage your core to prevent excessive bending of the waist.
2. Keep your gaze directed at the floor to avoid tension in your neck.
3. Avoid excessive repetition and adjust the number of repetitions according to your fitness level.
