In the "side kick series", how many repetitions are there for inner thigh lifts and leg circles?

In the "side kick series," the recommended repetitions for inner thigh lifts and leg circles typically range from 5 to 8 for each exercise. This range allows for an effective engagement of the targeted muscles, ensuring that the practitioner can maintain proper form and focus on quality of movement over quantity. The repetitions are designed to challenge the muscles while minimizing fatigue, which helps in maintaining control and precision—an essential aspect of Pilates practice.

Selecting this range also reflects an understanding of how Pilates emphasizes mindful movement and breath. It encourages practitioners to pay attention to their body alignment, core engagement, and overall form during the exercises, contributing to a more refined practice. Other ranges may suggest higher repetitions which could compromise form or lead to unnecessary strain, making the focus on quality repetitions more advantageous for achieving strength and stability in the inner thighs and improving mobility through leg circles.
