I take group Reformer classes six days a week for six months. What has changed? Lost 45 pounds, body fat percentage down 10 points, muscle percentage up 6 points, and even more importantly resting heart rate down 10 bpm, blood pressure down, and I can finally do a push up from my toes. Pilates is amazing. I love it.

Do gym bros say it isn’t beneficial? They’d have to be pretty dumb to say that. The list of pro athletes that do Pilates is extensive.

My daughter introduced me to Pilates when I was 44 because I had 15 pounds I just couldn’t shed and was thinking about a tummy tuck. I had been trying to lose that weight for a few years and within six months I dropped more than 20 pounds and went back to my beautiful maintenance weight. It’s amazing! I then started incorporating yoga and I enjoy both. I’ll be doing it for the rest of my life.

I do CrossFit, run for cardio, ex forces and typical guy. I tried reformer some years back to help me stretch and oh MG this killed me. Such hard work outs and beneficial

I love this perspective. I've taken classes on a reformer and on a mat in NYC for about a 2 year period. I found that I needed more, fitness-wise, but found that pilates was an amazing companion workout, if that makes sense. And it is NOT easy! The attention to small movements and control have helped me build a strong core ( pun intended) for my other workouts. I will say, though, I sometimes wish the messaging around modern pilates was sometimes better ( long! lean! slim!, sleek!, for example)...and it is often so expensive ( reformer classes), not very diverse and can feel intimating. Of course, this is just MY opinion/experience going to many studios over the years- in NYC, Boston and LA. I know this is not everyone's experience!

I'm loving what I do and I thank all my teachers for the skills I can pass on to these people! Sending you love and light!!!

HIIT and running never worked (weight loss) for me, so I'm hoping to implement daily pilates in my schedule help me lose 10 pounds. Wish me luck guys!

I am new to Pilates, I started doing Flow with Mira videos here on KZread after I realized that Blogilates (aka Cassey Ho) isn’t technically Pilates at all. I like her intensity, but prefer the attention to form that more traditional instructors provide. I was a runner for ten years, and gradually got worn down by injuries. The mat workouts I’ve been doing this year completely resolved separate knee and hip issues that had made it impossible to run. I’m back to running again, but only two times a week- I just really love my mat workouts, and find enjoyment in the variety of movements Pilates let’s you choose from. I know everyone likes to say that Pilates doesn’t burn calories, but without meaning to, I lost six pounds doing pilates alone this year. I don’t exercise for weight loss, but I get very annoyed with people who are overly negative about the benefits of Pilates. Everyone should try it and see how their own bodies react to the exercises. Since I am so new, though, I do wonder about Reformer Pilates. I definitely cannot afford to take a class right now (one commenter here already brought up the expense involved), so I rely heavily on videos and good instructors here on KZread. As I continue to progress, can I expect to gain strength doing mat exercises only, or does the reformer/chair/etc really become essential to the practice at a certain point?

@JustinaErcole

2 жыл бұрын

First of all, thanks so much for sharing your experience! In terms of your question, you can absolutely get stronger from mat only pilates. You'll just need to continue advancing your practice over time. Also remember that gaining strength does not always mean gaining muscle. To gain muscle you would absolutely need to add resistance over time. Hope that helps!

Anyway, I sub with standing ab moves and weighted carries, and I feel my functional strength is good. One of these days I’d like to take a class using the reformer, it looked pretty awesome!

I wanted to follow up on this. 😊 I’ve been practicing Pilates for four months now and the transformation has been impressive. I am 18 months postpartum with my second but feel stronger than I have in a long time. I’m also a yoga teacher and I have to say I’m really surprised at how much Pilates has helped my yoga practice since I’m much stronger now. If anyone is curious about Pilates I would recommend you give it a try but to be fair stick with it for a few months so you can really see the change. 💪🏻

pilates is my favourite life exercise.

I am a big believer of slow, control, breathing, and mind-muscle connection movements. Because my goal is not size but strength, mobility, stability, flexibility... (and other -ability😂). Because of my classical dancer background, i was introduced to pilates in the 90s (before it became popular) to build strength as a dancer. And because of the knowledge and practise (yes, esp the Core!) of pilates, it helped me get through life (pregnancy stage, post pregnancy, mum stage ) stronger than most mums (yes, i m proud of that!). So, pilates is a definately highly recommended.
