Our body is regulated by a clever combination of hormones. But sometimes we just don’t quite feel ourselves. Why? It can be that our well balanced levels of hormones are out of balance. Pilates is all about rebalancing, not just the physical act of balancing, but helping your body to function as efficiently as possible and maintain a state known as homeostasis.

Men also need to be aware of the impact hormones have on how our bodies function. Oestrogen and testosterone play a huge part in cancers such as prostate and testicular cancer. Diabetes management is hugely affected by increased exercise. By increasing your exercise, you will help regulate your hormones and make for a happy and healthy body and mind.

These hormones are all affected by the amount of exercise we take:

Dopamine (the feel good factor)

Serotonin (the sleepy one)

Testosterone (the strong one)

Oestrogen (keeps the wheels turning)

The most important action you can take is to move more. We only get one chance and one body, so let’s make it as good as it can be. Health = Happiness 

See you for move movement soon.
