I love this one! I've been doing one of your videos every day since November and I really appreciate the option for free workouts. I am disabled and I'm on a fixed income so it means the world to me to have such wonderful workouts to do. I'm feeling great and so is my body!!!

I Started this 6 days ago and my God my back hasn't felt better! I used to have a stiff lower back and its great now! Not only that, I couldn't even get myself off the Mat without rolling but now I can smoothly get up like you do. I'm sore after a couple days but it's such a great improvement in so little time.

I am recovering from a serious burn out. I wanted to start exercising carefully. I am often still very tired and I regularly suffer from migraines, so unfortunately I am not able to exercise every day. the exercises in combination with your way of talking make me feel relaxed after the exercises! thank you very much for the videos, I really think they will support me well in my recovery❤.

Day.5 done!

Day 5 done!

I took a three day break after day four because I was pretty sore (I am very out of shape) and to attend an out of town wedding. By the third evening I was CRAVING a pilates session (also doing rebounder workouts on Jumped&Jacked). On day 5 I already could see improvements! Its getting easier! Today I do day 6 (arm workout) and a 30 min rebounder session. I am so excited I found an excercise routine to get obsessed with again! After a 20 year obsession with traditonal lifting, then a nearly 2 year break after injury (tried and failed to get back into lifting a few times), it feels so good! I also have cut out white wine (my biggest vice) but otherwise no special diet plan...and have lost a half inch from my waist, one inch from biceps (trouble spot for me) and two lbs on the scale.

@rachelsfitpilates

Ай бұрын

Wow that’s great! I have the same vice haha glad you are back and that it’s getting easier!

I didn't do any of these workouts this weekend. I was still active but I missed pilates. I was worried I wouldn't want to return after that break but I'm still here! I will stick with this! I just have to be realistic and not let me being inconsistent discourage me! 😤

Day 5 ✅

Day 5 ✔️

Hi Rachel! I'm currently doing this challenge a second time! Yay! I have a question please. I often get cramps in the muscles behind my legs (the ones in the upper part, not the calves). I get them when I'm doing the bridging exercises. What can I do to prevent these cramps? Could they be caused by the fact that I usually exercise on an empty stomach? ^^`

@rachelsfitpilates

5 ай бұрын

Yes, I would try to hydrate before and also try keeping your feet a little closer to you sometimes if they’re too far away from us, we can feel cramping in the hamstrings

Day 5✔️

Thank you so much. I completed DAY 5 and will definitely continue to do. my energy level increased. However I am not sure if I did correctly, my tummy didn't feel ache much while doing day 5 exercise but killed my legs. Is that normal? could a wrong inhale and exhale be a reason? (as I I try to watch you as well, forgetting or wrong breathing in and out on each movement while doing bridge etc :) maybe I will feel abs ache when I wake up in the morning? or no muscle left after birth haha.
