Mixing magical choreography, hypnotic music and the latest exercise science, the 45-minute program is designed to improve core strength and endurance, mobility, and overall wellness. Under the
expert guidance of their trainer, participants build technique and control around slow, simple movements. Research led by a team of experts at Canada's University
of the
Fraser Valley found that LES MILLS PILATES participants experienced a 61% increase in abdominal endurance after just eight weeks.
Complementing the wealth of Les Mills workouts delivered at LES MILLS LIVE Berlin – and as part of adidas' commitment to help every member of the training community realize their strength – the collaboration highlighted several high-performance adidas training products. Worn by Les Mills trainers, the Dropset 3 combines a number of technology features, such as the TPU sidewall and geoFit construction for additional stability during high-intensity, strength-based workouts such as LES MILLS CEREMONY. Whilst the Optime apparel collection brought comfort to the fore with its four-way stretch fabric powered by LYCRA SPORT technology, offering a second skin fit while participating in workouts like LES MILLS PILATES and LES MILLS SHAPES.
Underpinning the past weekend, was the shared ambition to serve and inspire the training community. No matter their goals or where they are in the world – Les Mills and adidas seek to make fitness programs and experiences more joyful via digital and in-person spaces – connecting people with a focus on the positive mental and physical benefits of training.
