Pilates Professional Namrata Purohit: Exercise Should Be Safe, Punishment-Free, And Fun
In her early years, Namrata Purohit accomplished incredible feats. At the age of sixteen, she co-founded The Pilates Studio. At the age of 16, she became the youngest qualified Stott Pilates teacher in the world, and at the age of 21, she wrote “The Lazy Girl’s Guide to Being Fit.” Namrata added to her skills by completing all Stott Pilates courses by the time she was 19 years old. Her image as a titan of Pilates teaching was cemented when she attended specialist courses in London and Canada to further hone her craft.
We ask Purohit to explain the workouts that she does to have a toned summer figure in an open conversation.
1. CAN YOU SUGGEST A WHOLE-BODY EXERCISE TO GET THAT SUMMER BODY?
A single size does not fit everyone. Everybody has a unique body type, set of demands, objectives, and amount of time to devote to improving their physical appearance. It’s difficult to single out one exercise regimen that would enable someone to have the physique of their dreams for summer. Nonetheless, the following four exercises may be included in a fitness regimen as they target the complete body:
Twist Squat
Assume a squat stance and place your hands behind your head. Enter a deep squat, rise to your feet, and do an oblique twist. You must contact the opposing elbow with your knee during the oblique twist! Do the same on the other side.
Side Plunge Into Press-Up Position
Dumbbells should be held in your hands when you begin standing erect. Enter a side lunge, contract your glutes as you come back in, and raise your knee to your chest while maintaining your balance. As you raise yourself back up, curl and push your shoulders. Do the same on the other side.
Plank Saw
Rock back and forth while seated on a board. You will strengthen your quadriceps, activate your core, and engage your shoulder stabilizers and arms. Remember to engage your core while doing this!
Bridge Tricep Dips
With your hands behind you, feet in front, hip distance apart, and your belly up toward the ceiling, drop to your all fours. Squeeze your glutes up and lower yourself into tricep dips, using your whole posterior chain. Ensure that your core remains active. After a few repetitions, raise one leg to the top of a table, place the other leg on the ground, hold it there for ten seconds, and then swap to finish.
Q.2: WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO ACHIEVE THIS?
A: Depending on the kind of regimen one follows, it’s vital to work three to five times a week.
Q.3: Do you have any specific advice you’d want to share?
Aim to Always Keep It Safe, Simple, and Smart (KIS).
In my opinion, getting the most out of one’s workout time is essential, as is exercising with enjoyment, safety, and no injuries. Quality always takes precedence over quantity.
