[quote=Anonymous]After a back injury in my 40s, I will say that doing both is the answer. I was doing weight lifting and running. I felt great. But when I started coming back after the injury, my PT suggested Pilates first to build the foundational muscles. Exercises you do in pilates and barre really strengthen the smaller muscles in your glutes, hips, and back, and are great for core strength. You will naturally do your weight lifting more safely and more effectively if you work your muscles in both ways. [/quote]
