First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares how well Wunda Chair Pilates and mat-based Pilates improve balance in healthy women after a single session. Forty women aged 18-45 who regularly do Pilates will be randomly assigned to one type. Balance is tested before and right after the 45-minute workout using standard tests like standing on one leg and timed walking. The goal is to see which method gives a quicker balance boost.
