November is back and at Flex Studio that means getting the lads to move for men\u2019s health. We talk to restaurant and bar owner <\/span><\/i>Marcus Cheng<\/i><\/b> about his experience completing last year\u2019s challenge<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/b>I knew nothing about Pilates, I thought it was something like doing yoga with machines.\u201d That was about everything Marcus Cheng knew about Pilates prior to starting his 30 Day Pilates Challenge last November. However, that didn\u2019t stop the architect and F&B owner from expressing interest when we approached him to do the challenge to raise awareness for men\u2019s health.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Movember is a leading men\u2019s health charity that grew out of Australia to over twenty countries worldwide. Their aim is to reduce the number of men dying prematurely by 25% come 2030. They exist to help men live happier, healthier, longer lives \u2013 driving every single one of their 1,250 men\u2019s health projects.<\/span>How Pilates relates to men\u2019s health<\/b><\/p>\n

Unlike <\/span>the gym philosophy<\/span><\/a>, Pilates really isn\u2019t about a certain physique, it\u2019s about training our bodies to unlock its self-healing powers and function properly in all of its systems. According to <\/span>Benjamin Degenhardt<\/span><\/a> of 360\u00b0 Pilates, Joseph Pilates\u2019 philosophy is not about punishing exercise to trim or tighten. \u201cInstead, Pilates talked about your circulation, your brain, your breathing, your gut or digestive system, your control, and your health. He was an outspoken advocate for helping people understand their bodies and their own health, and the Pilates method is a living and timeless expression of that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, studies have shown that more than 80% of Pilates class attendance is comprised of females. This is a real shame, because there are so many benefits men can reap from this miracle-worker of a system. These include far more than stretching and injury rehab\u2026 men can affect lifelong changes on their health from easing back pain and managing the side effects of osteoporosis to targeting muscle groups that are usually neglected to bring more balance to the body.<\/span>30 Day Pilates Challenge in Hong Kong<\/b><\/p>\n

Prior to his Movember Challenge, Marcus\u2019 typical workout routine consisted of two hours\u2019 cardio per week, and an occasional HIIT class. After his first few Pilates sessions, he says \u201cIt was interesting to notice that a slight change of muscle control makes a huge difference. The motion might look very similar or insignificant, but it can feel different and powerful if you do it right.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

While most men would dismiss Pilates as an \u201ceasy\u201d workout, Marcus was refreshingly open to it. \u201cIt seemed like a good opportunity to give myself a challenge to workout 30 days in a row,\u201d he says. Unlike weightlifting, for example, Pilates is an effective low-impact exercise that can be done everyday for best results. Marcus went out of his way to fit Pilates and Yoga classes at Flex into his schedule, as he juggled managing his multiple businesses: <\/span>Daap Restaurant<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>AWA Lounge<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Wood Sixteen Cocktail Bar<\/span><\/a> and more.<\/span>\u201cA lot of the moves were pretty foreign to me at the beginning,\u201d says Marcus. \u201cI never thought of using certain muscles in such targeted ways, especially core muscles.\u201d After 30 days of Pilates, Mar says he felt great. \u201cI was more aware of my posture, and the stretching part massively helped with my mobility.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

When asked whether he would do it again, Marcus enthusiastically says yes. \u201cI would definitely recommend it,\u201d he says. \u201cSome people workout just to look good. For me, being healthy is to be fit enough to do all kinds of activities. To have better stamina and strength, and not get tired easily. Pilates is the exercise that addresses all that as it has your best interests at heart.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Movember was created to raise awareness for men\u2019s health issues. The Movember Foundation has challenged men to \u201cMove for men\u2019s health\u201d as a way to promote a healthy body image and safe workouts often overlooked by men.
