pigtailgirl Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 I have sort of bulky thigh muscles, and I understand that pilates lengthens muscles. Would it help to lengthen out the thigh muscles? Also, if you know any other activities (yoga?) or exercises that might help, that would be great. Thanks Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted June 2, 2004 Administrators Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 I would suggest Pilates, pigtailgirl Quote Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 But remember, please everybody, about yoga. It's NOT about the postures. It's about what goes on inside you. Quote Link to comment
Guest ap's mom Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 My daughter HAD over developed quads as well as the back of her leg (under her glutes), from working incorrectly. Her new teacher this year addressed this issue with her at the beginning of the year and told her that if she worked correctly by using the correct muscles during barre and center that she would notice a difference. Her teacher was not addressing a weight issue but one of incorrect technique. She told her that by making certain corrections her dancing would improve and her extra bulk in these areas would disappear if she started working correctly. In nine months I can tell you her legs look very different, with a much longer, slimmer look. Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted June 2, 2004 Administrators Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Yes, that can happen for sure, if the bulk has been caused by poor training or working incorrectly. Very glad that she got to a good teacher! Quote Link to comment
