Anahtar Kelimeler: Parkinson hastalıǧı, pilates, bantlama, denge, postüral control ABSTRACT Introduction: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Pilates training and elastic ...taping on balance and postural control in patients with early stage Parkinson's disease (PD). In elastic taping group, in addition to Pilates training, elastic taping was applied to the upper back twice a week for 6 weeks with the aim of postural correction. In order to evaluate the postural control before and after the training, Berg Balance Scale and Trunk Impairment Scale were implemented and Limits of stability (LOS), Sit-to-Stand, Walk Across and Tandem Walking Tests were also performed by Neur°Com Balance Master performance test device. Results: The data of 20 patients (6 male in Pilates group, 2 female and 6 male in elastic taping group, 3 female and 3 male in control group) were analyzed.
Workout programmes have proven physiological benefits, and it is widely accepted that they can yield more positive health outcomes when parameters such as balance and mobility are at play. This study ...intends to examine the effects of a 12-week mat pilates workout program on mobility and dynamic balance parameters in the former athlete group (FAG) and the sedentary group (SG). The study was designed in an experimental design with pre-test and post-test in two groups. The study group consisted of 30 female participants, SG (n=15) and FAG (n = 15). Dynamic balance values were measured using the Star Excursion Balance Test, and lower extremity mobility was measured using the Sit and Reach Test. Both groups conducted mat pilates exercises twice a week for 12 weeks. At the end of the 12-week mat pilates workout programme, a significant difference of increase was obtained in the mobility values of the FAG (p<0,002) and the SG (p<0,001). The Y Balance Test identified a significant difference of increase with pre-test and post-test in anterior (p = 0.04), postero-lateral (p = 0.03), posteromedial (p = 0.04) directions balance in the FAG. In the difference between groups, SG showed a significant increase in posterolateral (p = 0.001) and posteromedial (p = 0.002) directions balance than FAG at post-test. At the end of the 12-week mat pilates workout programme, it was revealed out that the FAG scored better in post-test in dynamic balance than the SG although it scored lower in the dynamic balance pre-test than the SG.
Aim: This study aims to define the effect of a weight-loss diet on body composition in women doing reformer pilates for 12 weeks. It compares dietary habits in subject groups with and without a ...weight-loss diet and macro and micronutrient intakes at the beginning and end of the study. Method: A total of 49 women (≥18 age) were randomly allocated to either a control (CG: reformer pilates; n=23) or a study (SG: reformer pilates+weight-loss diet; n=26) group. In both groups, subjects did pilates for 45 minutes a day three times a week for a total of 12 weeks. Their body weight (kg), waist circumference (cm), hip circumference (cm), neck circumference (cm), mid-upper arm circumference (cm), body composition, waist/height ratio, and body mass index (BMI; kg/m2) were evaluated at the beginning and the third month of the study. Dietary habits of all subjects were questioned, their 24-hour retrospective food consumption was taken, and their physical activity levels were evaluated through the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (Short Form). Results: The use of vitamin and mineral supplements in SG was lower than CG (p=0.003). The twelve-week evaluation showed a significantly higher increase in dietary protein and calcium levels in SG than CG (p<0.05). In SG, a significantly higher decrease was determined in body weight, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, and waist/height ratio, and a higher increase in Basal Metabolic Rate, body muscle, and body water, compared to CG (p<0.05). Conclusion: Pilates combined with a weight-loss diet has more positive effects on body composition than pilates alone. Providing dietary training and counseling for women who practice reformer pilates will increase the health benefits of exercise.
Amaç: Bu araştırmada 12 haftalık sürede kadınlarda aletli pilatesin vücut kompozisyonuna tek başına veya zayıflama diyeti ile birlikte etkisinin karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın diğer amacı ise zayıflama diyeti yapan ve yapmayan grupların beslenme alışkanlıkları ve çalışmanın başlangıcı ve sonundaki makro ve mikro besin ögesi alımlarını karşılaştırmaktır. Materyal ve Metod: Kadınlar (≥18, n=49), kontrol (CG: Reformer pilates, n=23) ya da çalışma (SG: Reformer pilates+Zayıflama diyeti, n=23) grubu olarak rastgele iki gruba ayrılmıştır. Katılımcılar, 12 hafta boyunca günde 45 dakika olmak üzere haftada üç kez pilates yapmıştır. Vücut ağırlığı (kg), bel çevresi (cm), kalça çevresi (cm), boyun çevresi (cm), üst orta kol çevresi (cm), vücut kompozisyonu, bel/boy oranı ve beden kütle indeksi (BMI; kg/m2) çalışmanın başlangıcında ve üçüncü ayda değerlendirilmiştir. Tüm katılımcıların beslenme alışkanlıkları ve 24 saatlik geriye yönelik besin tüketim kayıtları sorgulanmış ve fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi (Kısa Form) (IPAQ) kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışma grubunda vitamin ve mineral desteği kullanımının kontrol grubundan daha düşük olduğu saptanmıştır (p=0.003). On iki haftalık değerlendirme sonucunda, SG’de CG’ye göre diyetle alınan protein ve kalsiyum düzeyinin anlamlı olarak daha fazla arttığı belirlenmiştir (p<0.05). SG’de, CG’ye göre vücut ağırlığı, BMI, bel çevresi, kalça çevresi, bel/boy oranının anlamlı olarak daha fazla azaldığı; bazal metabolizma hızı, vücut kas oranının ve vücut su oranının daha fazla arttığı gözlenmiştir (p<0.05). Sonuç: Pilates ile birlikte zayıflama diyetinin, tek başına pilates uygulamasına göre vücut kompozisyonu üzerine daha fazla olumlu etkisinin olduğu belirlenmiştir. Aletli pilates yapan kadınlara beslenme eğitimi ve danışmanlığı verilerek uygulanan egzersizden sağlanacak sağlık yararlarının artırılabileceği düşünülmektedir.
A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to investigate the effectiveness of the Pilates exercise program during pregnancy on different delivery outcomes. Various databases were searched ...from inception until November 2022. The included studies compared Pilates exercise to routine antenatal care in pregnant women. The primary outcomes assessed were vaginal and cesarean delivery rates, as well as labor duration. Secondary outcomes included episiotomy incidence, Apgar scores, and epidural analgesia. Seven studies met the inclusion criteria, involving a total of 1,003 patients. Results indicated a significant increase in the vaginal delivery rate among the Pilates exercise group compared to the control group (p < .001). Moreover, the Pilates exercise group exhibited significantly reduced rates of cesarean delivery and shorter labor duration. Pilates exercise was associated with a significant decline in the incidence of episiotomy and the number of women requiring epidural analgesia during delivery (p < .001 & p = .008). In addition, Apgar scores at one and five minutes were significantly higher in the Pilates exercise group compared to the control group (p < .001). In conclusion, Pilates exercise during pregnancy has a positive effect on maternal outcomes and Apgar scores. However, more trials are needed to confirm these findings.

It is well known that physical exercise improves functional capacity (FC), promoting healthy aging. The Pilates method (PM) is an example of well-accepted physical exercise by the elderly and has ...been reported in studies to be beneficial for this population. However, it is not yet known whether there is a difference between the practice of mat and apparatus PM. The goal of this study was to compare the effect of mat versus apparatus Pilates training on functional capacity in elderly women. Method: 48 active elderly women (65.15 ± 3.0 years old), independent or partially independent in Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL), who had never practiced Pilates, were separated into three groups in a random order through a draw: Mat Group (MG = 15), Apparatus Group (AG = 16) and Control Group (CG = 17). Pilates training sessions were applied to MG and AG for 8 weeks, with two weekly sessions of 50 min. The FC of the three groups was evaluated by the Senior Fitness Test (SFT) battery, pre and post intervention. Results: There were improvements in lower and upper limb strength, aerobic endurance, lower and upper limb flexibility, and agility after the intervention in both groups, showing no significant differences when compared to mat and apparatus Pilates training (<0,05). Conclusion: The mat and apparatus Pilates training provide significant and similar improvements in the functional capacity of elderly women.
Background: During menstruation, there is an imbalance in the hormone progesterone which causes pain or is often called dysmenorrhea. A general percentage of 50–60% of women manage dysmenorrhea using ...analgetic drugs. Pilates exercise is aimed at producing natural, correct, and efficient motion. It is a stretching and strengthening exercise in the core area, namely the area between the pelvic, abdomen, and back which has the aim of increasing muscle strength, flexibility, muscle endurance so that body stability can be maintained through body control, posture and breathing. Objectives: The purpose of this basic research is to strengthen the theory of the relationship between pilates exercise and dysmenorrhea symptoms. Methods: The research design was an experimental pre-test post-test control group. Subjects were 52 students who experienced primary dysmenorrhea, divided into two groups. The first group received pilates exercise twice a week for four weeks. The second group only received information support. The variables measured include pain, anxiety, pulse frequency. Results: The results showed that there were differences in pain and anxiety scale scores with a mean of 4.15 and 27.7 (p> 0.05). Conclusions: The conclusion obtained by Pilates can be alternative complementary care for adolescent girls who experience anxiety.
