Movement Myth #4: “Pilates is only for women.” 🚫♀️♂️

This one’s stuck around for far too long. While Pilates is incredibly popular with women, it was actually developed by a man — Joseph Pilates — and first used to train boxers, soldiers and dancers of all genders 🥊🪖🩰

Pilates is brilliant for men too. It improves core strength, balance and posture, supports joint health, and reduces injury risk — especially in sports like golf, football or running ⚽🏌️‍♂️🏃

Some of the top athletes in the world use Pilates to boost their performance and longevity. So no, it’s not “just for women” — it’s for anybody that wants to move better and feel stronger 💪🌟
