I did a few one to one sessions to help with a knee injury and it was absolutely brilliant! Would highly recommend giving it a go.Is it more strenuous because it’s the reformer Pilates? And have any of you tried them and if so thoughts please
I did Pilates many many years ago, and then again back care Pilates with work about 15 years ago
Really want to get back into it again
I have a colleague who does reformer and they think it's easier than mat pilates cause you have the assistance of the machines (I'm not sure they are correctIs it more strenuous because it’s the reformer Pilates? And have any of you tried them and if so thoughts please

Don’t know how they asked as I was going to ask about the pigs but messages are turned off???Was wondering how long it would be before she linked her top
My way of thinking of reformer Pilates is that the apparatus makes up for any flexibility you lack so that you get the benefit of the movement even if you can't extend/bend as far as the ideal movement would have you do. The machine is also adjustable so you can change your resistance as well to be YOUR maximum/right fit instead of failing at the exercise because you aren't as strong, etc. I think though that Pilates has been colonized like so many things by "gym culture" where people get "certified" during a weekend hotel conference meeting and put people through incredible exertion so they feel like they got a workout. I've done both, and the gym Pilates had 12 reformers, very little personal adjustment, jumping (horizontally pushing out from the bar), lots of repetition to muscle failure, etc. The Pilates-accredited teachers I've had would NEVER have students do that and teach classes of 4 or 5 students, they're constantly adjusting you and telling you to stop if your form is potentially harmful. Last week, our teacher taught my husband and another student one exercise and me another a couple of times, because of our individual needs. I suppose LA goes to a gym-style Pilates like Josie does because they're always bragging about how hard it was. To me, that's not Pilates; that's using Pilates equipment to do Cross Fit, but that's just my opinion (I'm a certified yoga teacher).
Sounds like it would really benefit my underlying Heath condition tooI did a few one to one sessions to help with a knee injury and it was absolutely brilliant! Would highly recommend giving it a go.
I like the mild resistance opportunities reformers might give as have been neglecting exercise for too longI have a colleague who does reformer and they think it's easier than mat pilates cause you have the assistance of the machines (I'm not sure they are correct).
I haven't done reformer although I'd like to try I'm sure the machines must add some form of resistance but LA is as usual dramatic I would imagine.
I'm so much stronger since I started pilates, my core is steel now and my back much less weak. My balance has also improved hugely.
Take note the first story DM’s show half a profile pic. The deo one? Conveniently cropped to show the message only. We know you sent it to yourself LA when you always end the message XxA question spree today - asking for (aff obviously) links to her tshirt, deodorant and hello fresh. None of them saying "thanks a mill" tonight. And none called Sarah. She's diversifying...![]()
Yes I noticed the "accidental" crop that left part of the profile picture so we'd know it was a legit request! I'm also happy to accept she does get questions at times. But never about her deodorant...!Take note the first story DM’s show half a profile pic. The deo one? Conveniently cropped to show the message only.

Diversifying or reading the thread![]()
Or process an order herselfBeen a quiet day or two, maybe she’s actually having to look after her kids and horses?
