1

She Does Pilates

As you can see from her Instagram post, Bowmar loves to do Pilates to stay in shape. Pilates has a lot of benefits. ACE Fitness reports, "Pilates β€” once a niche strength, mobility, and recovery technique for dancers β€” has gone mainstream. The low-intensity, muscle-strengthening workout can promote flexibility, mobility, and posture. What's more, it can set your body up to complete other more intense strength-training safely."

She Does Unilateral Workouts

Bowmar also loves doing unilateral workouts. She shared some of her favorites in this Instagram video. Bowmar is seen doing things like standing hammer curls, seated hammer curls, and concentration curls. Bowmar captioned the post, "Unilateral movements are extremely beneficial for multiple reasons: β€’ correct any strength / size imbalance as your stronger side won't be able to take over. β€’ assists with stabilization, balance, core strength, etc. β€’ better concentration and increased range of motion. β€’ increased mind to muscle connection. β€’ easier to pace workouts as you are moving more. β€’ can help prevent injury."

Bowmar does a lot of strength and weight training to keep herself in shape. In the previous two Instagram links, she is seen using dumbbells and strength machines. ACE Fitness states that lifting weights has a lot of benefits. "Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle's appearance."

She Does Wall Sits

Bowmar does a lot of core workouts. She revealed in this Instagram post that one of her favorites are wall sits. NASM states that the exercise has a lot of benefits. "Wall sits increase muscular endurance and joint stabilization in a squat position. They work the quads (no question there), the glutes, the calves, and the core (especially as you focus on good posture in this position!)."
