The aim of this study was to evaluate the acute effects of Pilates exercises on flexibility and performance in practitioners of an extreme conditioning program (ECP). The hypothesis adopted was that Pilates could activate deeper muscles and improve the stability of core muscles.
This was an observational cross-sectional study with individuals practicing an ECP submitted to a Pilates method (PM) exercise session. The Wells bench test was used to assess flexibility, while performance was evaluated using the Wall Ball exercise commonly performed by ECP practitioners. The perception of effort was measured using the Borg scale.
A single session of PM exercises was able to significantly improve flexibility immediately after the exercises (p < 0.001) and performance in one of the movements of the ECP (p < 0.001), as well as decrease the perception of effort.
An acute intervention with Pilates exercises promoted improvement in performance of the CrossFit Wall Ball exercise.
本研究旨在评估 Pilates 运动对极限体能训练计划（ECP）练习者柔韧性和表现的急性影响。研究假设 Pilates 运动可以激活深层肌肉并提高核心肌肉的稳定性。
这是一项观察性的横断面研究，参与者为进行极限体能训练计划的个体，他们接受了 Pilates 方法（PM）运动训练。采用威尔斯板凳测试来评估柔韧性，而使用通常由 ECP 练习者进行的墙球练习来评估表现。使用 Borg 量表来衡量努力程度。
PM 运动的单次训练可以显著提高柔韧性（p < 0.001），并提高 ECP 运动中的一个动作的表现（p < 0.001），同时降低努力程度的感知。
急性 Pilates 运动干预可以提高 CrossFit 墙球练习的表现。
