Pilates Gliding Discs

Two little discs. A seriously big training range.

The moment your hands or feet are placed on the Pilates Gliding Discs, stability and control become part of the exercise.

Unlike a fixed contact point with the floor, the discs can move beneath you. That continuous instability gives your body constant feedback, requiring muscles to recruit and adjust throughout the movement to maintain position and control the glide.

And that work can travel through the whole body.

From biceps, triceps, deltoids, lats and traps through to the spinal erectors, abdominals, obliques and transverse abdominis. Then into the glutes, pelvic stabilisers, quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, adductors and abductors. The muscles involved change with the exercise, but stability and control remain part of the work.

Mountain climbers. Reverse lunges. Pike to plank. Leg slides. Core sequences. Upper body work. Lower body work. Pilates flows.

Move one disc or both. Use your hands or your feet. Slow it down or pick up the pace. Keep both points grounded or introduce a lift.

That versatility gives you room to build strength, muscular endurance and coordination while continually challenging the stability and control required to manage a moving contact point.

And as you become stronger, the discs don’t run out of work to give you.

Increase the range. Add more repetitions. Progress the exercise. Connect movements together. What challenged you at the beginning doesn’t have to be where your training stays.

Each disc is dual sided, so you can keep moving across different training surfaces. The smooth PP plastic side glides across carpet, while the EVA foam side is used on hard floors.

At 17.5 cm in diameter, there is plenty of surface for your hands or feet while keeping the discs compact and portable. At approximately 150 g per set, they can slip easily into your training bag and go from home to the studio and wherever you train next.

Pilates. Strength training. Dance strength and conditioning. Full body movement.

Two discs, and a whole lot of ways to keep progressing.
