Why Training Harder Isn't Always Better After 40 | Sam Deville
Notes de l’épisode
Could Pilates be the secret to staying stronger, healthier and more mobile for longer? This week on Performance People, Georgie Ainslie is joined by London-based Pilates instructor Sam Deville, founder of the SDP Method, to explore the surprising benefits of Pilates for strength, longevity and mental wellbeing. Sam shares her remarkable personal story of rebuilding her core strength after two C-sections, using just 15 minutes of daily Pilates to help avoid major surgery. Together, they discuss why training smarter becomes increasingly important in midlife, how Pilates develops the smaller muscles we often overlook, and why even elite athletes are embracing it to improve their performance. From the power of consistency to the mind-body connection, this conversation challenges everything you thought you knew about Pilates.
