About The Core: Pilates for Triathletes
with June Quick, Certified Pilates
Instructor, licensed Physical Therapist,
Certified Athletic Trainer,
and Stanford University Swimming
consultant and featuring Barb Lindquist,
#1 Ranked Triathlete and 2004 Olympian
In this excellent Pilates program (Quick
affectionately refers to as
"Triathalates"), June Quick shares her
unique on-land program for multi-sport
athletes that uniquely intertwines
Pilates exercises to strengthen the core
and shoulder girdle, yoga exercises to
increase flexibility and lung capacity,
and stretching exercises to accommodate
the use of the extremities while
maintaining posture, line, and balance
of the core. The goal of the program is
to assist a multi-sport athlete in
achieving and maintaining proper
posture, line, and balance while
running, biking, and swimming. Quick
begins this video with a brief anatomy
review of the body core and shoulder
muscle areas that the program targets:
areas crucial to multi-sport athletes.
She then proceeds with three specific
20-minute follow-along workouts: 1)
Upper core, 2) Middle core, and 3) Lower
core. In each workout, Quick leads
World-renowned triathlete Barb Lindquist
through an "area specific" workout on a
"long roll" (foam roller). To facilitate
those wanting to work without a foam
roll, Quick simultaneously coaches a
second demonstrator on a traditional
Pilates mat. Each workout also
incorporates valuable "prehab" exercises
to help prevent the most common
multi-sport injuries! As a bonus, Quick
offers tips for maintaining proper
posture, line, and balance for running,
biking, and swimming.
