In the 1930s and 1940s, <a href=\"https:\/\/flexhk.com\/blog\/taking-control\/\"><b>Joseph Pilates<\/b><\/a> published writings on his philosophy of attaining mortal perfection through \u201cbodily perfections\u201d. He believed there was a way to develop the physique to high levels of strength and beauty, under the control of the mind \u2013\u00a0and named this method \u201cContrology.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">What is Contrology? According to Frederick Rand Rogers, President of the North American Physical Fitness Institute, \u201cContrology is an ideal system to transform the body into a perfect instrument of the will.\u201d Rogers believes it is \u201ckinesiologically proper, physiologically sound and psychologically correct.\u201d \u201cI have personal knowledge of its success in effecting astonishing results,\u201d he said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Complete coordination of body, mind and spirit<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">According to Pilates, Contrology is complete coordination of body, mind and spirit. Through it, you first purposefully acquire complete control of your own body. Subsequently, through proper repetition of exercises, practitioners gradually and progressively acquire that natural rhythm and coordination associated with subconscious activities. To Pilates, this true rhythm is that which wild animals already naturally possess. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What does Contrology do?<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li>Develops the body uniformly<\/li>\n<li>Corrects wrong postures<\/li>\n<li>Restores physical vitality<\/li>\n<li>Invigorates the mind<\/li>\n<li>Elevates the spirit<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23167\" src=\"https:\/\/flexhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/contrology1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What went wrong and how Contrology can fix it<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">In childhood, Pilates believed that we all enjoyed the benefits of natural and normal physical development, with rare exceptions. However, as we mature, we find ourselves living in bodies that don\u2019t complement our ego. Symptoms of this involve slumped bodies, stooped shoulders, hollow eyes, flabby muscles and lowered or vanished vitality. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Why does this happen? Pilates believed this was the result of not having uniformly developed all the muscles of our trunk, spine, arms and legs in the course of pursuing our daily tasks. Therefore, he created Contrology as a technique for humans to \u201creturn to life\u201d by doing a specific set of exercises around four times a week for three months. But that\u2019s only the beginning\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mind over muscle<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">One of the major results of Contrology is gaining mastery of one\u2019s mind for complete control of the body. Even trained athletes have been surprised to discover how few Contrology exercises they were able to execute properly, demonstrating the real difficulty of attaining \u201ctrue mental mastery\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">\u201cIdeally, our muscles should obey our will,\u201d stated Pilates. \u201cReasonably, our will should not be dominated by the reflex actions of our muscles.\u201d Thus, Contrology begins with the mind\u2019s control over our muscles. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">By awakening thousands upon thousands of otherwise dormant muscle cells, Contrology correspondingly reawakens thousands of inert brain cells, thus activating new areas and further stimulating the mind\u2019s ability to function. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23167\" src=\"https:\/\/flexhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/contrology3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blood to the brain<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Anatomically, the continuous use of Contrology gradually increases pure rich blood to flow to and circulate through the brain with corresponding stimulation to new brain areas previously latent. More significantly, it actually develops more brain cells!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">As the great American psychologist G. Stanley Hall once said, \u201cThe culture of muscles is brain-building.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><i>Ready to get started on your journey to modern-day Contrology?
