普拉提本身可以提高人体躯干的控制能力,有效的矫正骨骼的生理弯曲和隐性畸形。在普拉提的基本套式里有一项基本功叫做“延伸脊骨和四肢
Lengthening the Spine and
Limbs”——Pilates和舞蹈教师经常叫学生“拉长脊骨”“长高一点”。成人可以这样“长高”吗?原来可以呢!研究指出只需要简单的口头指示,参与者就可以真的延伸脊骨,减小脊椎间的压缩。其中有两个重点位置能帮你“长高”。首先,增加盆骨和胸腔骨之间的距离。此外,将头部拉离尾龙骨的方向。当你学会“长高”后,就要学会保持这个高度。Pilates就是要唤醒那些维持坐站姿的肌肉。至于延伸四肢,则有助增强四肢的肌肉。要注意肢体的调准,不要锁实手肘和膝盖关节。另外普拉提中特定锻炼动作能刺激到我们平时很少活动到的骨骼关节、韧带,能有效的刺激骨骼的生长,塑造挺拔的身材……

Human growth
hormone(HGH) is a substance produced by a gland in the brain
called the pituitary gland. This gland is often called the
master gland, because it controls many of the other glands
in the body. It is about the size of a pea and it lies above
the roof of the mouth, beneath the brain. human growth
hormone is a protein and is made of 191 building blocks
called amino acids. It is also called somatotropin or
somatropin which are the Greek words for body growth.
Human
growth hormone(HGH) travels through the
blood and stimulates the liver to produce a
protein called insulin-like growth factor
#1(IGF-1). IGF-1 helps the cartilage cells
located at the ends of long bones called the
growth plates to multiply, which is where bone
growth occurs. During puberty age, this leads to
growth in the length of the bones and increases
one's overall height.
