I'm not too sure where to say this so i'm going to say it here, I weighed 107KG, now i'm with 77Kg (1m86). since i started this journey with Kelli and Daniel, i'm really thankful to both of you, you are a source of motivation and inspiration, i think i wouldn't be capable of loosing this much weight by myself. So just for that, Thank You :) It's was Damn Hard, i almost passed out multiple times the 1st two weeks LOL, but it was worth it. To the people who want to loose weight, don't overwork your body, do HIIT 3 time a week MAX, you can also go for a run if you want to, but most importantly, eat healthy, drink lot water, if you can't do a Video in one time, it's ok, do what you can, next day or so try again, don't give up, if you read this is because you whant to change. Keep up the hard work :) Sorry if my english is terrible i'm not a native english speaker. Thanks for Reading me.

@theduchess0822 6 лет назад

Legit the first workout I've seen where the instructor tells you to listen to your body and find where your most comfortable. It made me feel really good at the end of the workout and motivated me to keep going. Thank you so much for this. Its absolutely amazing

Packaging: It came in a sturdy rectangular cardboard box that said Yoga on it. ru-vid.comUgkxZkaD2JsPC-fUMkF3vxJ2echoiXZ3T9aM I didn't like how it let possible package thieves know what might be contained inside but great packaging otherwise. The yoga mat came rolled up in a plastic wrap, which was fairly easy to remove.Contents: I got the green yoga mat and it came with an adjustable velcro carrying strap already secured to the mat. There was also a warranty card. There was a bit of a plastic smell coming form the yoga mat but it quickly dissipated after using it once.I've only used the yoga mat twice so far but I am loving it. It's such a game changer to my work outs, especially compared to my bed and floor, haha! I can confirm that it very thick, slip resistant, and comfortable. i didn't look at the dimensions prior to buying the mat, but it is so much longer than I expected! Width is normal size in my opinion. I don't know if it really is tear resistant yet... only time will tell!

@veppie0 5 лет назад

I have hip arthrosis and this work-out really helps strengthen the muscles around the joint. Also it is really nice to be reminded that having a limited range of motion doesn’t matter. I love your video’s, thanks for making them!

@lynnzappa8288 2 года назад

So happy to have found Kelli and her pilates techniques!! I feel accomplished after her workouts, and she's so kind and sweet in her instructions, makes me feel less intimidated and more apt to keep returning! Love her attitude and how she explains that "exercise is a question, not a demand" on your body, truth! I never comment on these kinds of things, but really wanted to express my appreciation here! 😁

@garythomas4431 6 лет назад

Thanks Kelli for sharing again. I've been working out with fitness blender for over two years. Best workouts out there. It's always nice working out with you. Great motivation. You're the best.

@heathers8826 6 лет назад

@themugger4930 5 лет назад

I feel so energized and relaxed all at the same time. The pace was perfect, the narration during the exercises motivated me and I feel absolutely GREAT. I 'm.not doing this with fitness fanatics at a gym. This is in the c comfort and space of home. Thank you Fitness Blender\Kelly! May just have a summer body for the 🌴beach here in NOT Jamaica!

@mapeis 6 лет назад

I didn’t think I’d get much out of this workout. I did it to get my 30 minutes in for the day. I woke up this morning so sore! Wow! That’s why I love fitness blender though - you can do a low impact workout and still feel the burn. Best workout videos on RU-vid!

I think this is one of the most "kellish" or "kellitic" workouts. I love workouts which Kelli adds her own moves rather than traditional ones. Practising new kind of exercises keeps my motivation and satisfaction at high levels even after completed maybe hundreds of workouts of this marvelous channel.

@ctkrumba310 5 лет назад

I love this workout!!! Totally burns the muscles in a different way. I always do your HIIT and strength videos and am realizing I need to throw in more pilates ones. LOVE the burn it gives me. Thank you for being such a great instructor!!

@missymadden4294 5 лет назад

I love this workout, hope to see more of these posted. It’s a real targeted challenge and was not boring and required full concentration. My legs and butt thank you! :D

@shannonsloan1275 3 года назад

I found Fitness Blender workouts when I was looking for simple, at-home workouts on RU-vid. I've tried all kinds of exercise and these videos are INCREDIBLE!!! I just did the pilates butt and thigh workout and it was SO relaxing, more than I had anticipated. Usually, I'm rushing to get through a workout, but I felt like this workout was super short! It felt like 5 minutes. I also love how the instructor is not telling you to 'push' through a workout beyond capacity. It was a very supportive way to motivate viewers. From this video, I have learned that as my body gets stronger, I can push myself more and more. My butt and thighs also felt the burn! I love your work and have subscribed to your channel! Blessings!!!

@reneebrick1871 6 лет назад

This was the perfect rainy slow Monday workout, I started my morning with it, after having not worked out since my move, and I feel great. Hoping to do some tomorrow too!

@ellenrandom1494 5 лет назад

Workout complete. My first workout complete with Kelli after a long time. I just feel inspired to see Kelli starting up a new video again. Thank you for the much needed inspiration. Love.

@sophiagramos 5 лет назад

Like everyone in these comments, I just wanted to thank you guys for always bringing us such reliable and supportive content, for all fitness levels. I started doing your exercises around 2-3 years ago and made a lot of progress physically, however I had to stop as I slowly developed an eating disorder and was using exercise as a way to compensate for eating. But after undergoing recovery, I’ve slowly started to incorporate exercise into my daily routine again, simply because it feels good, and not to attain any sort of body shape. Since I’m in my final year of high school, it’s a bit difficult to find time and do exercise consistently, hence, this is the first workout I’ve finished in around 3-4 months, and just hearing Kelli’s supportive comments about listening to your body, and reminding us that everyone starts somewhere, it was so motivating and encouraging and is really helping me get into the mindset of why we get into fitness in the first place - to honour our bodies and our minds, to push ourselves whilst also being proud of wherever we are at this exact moment. Thank you so much for the amazing content you produce and you inspire so many of us to get fit and healthy, the RIGHT way, whilst also being heavily accessible. Have a good day!

I used a resistance band for this. It sure makes the exercises harder but I love the burnnnnn. Thanks Kelli 😊

@JayJasperLondon 6 лет назад

Lisha Lewis I tried but I cannot handle the thing and end up wriggling around all tied up like a psychotic caterpillar 🐛 😷🙈 My bf laughed at me so hard he cracked his toe in the process and he won’t give it back to me so I can’t do any more damage 🤔🤷🏼‍♀️

@LLewisASMR 6 лет назад

Swede Potato Pie you must’ve either had it on wrong or your form itself was wrong. They do feel weird at first but the more you use it, it gets comfortable

Swede Potato Pie the cheap ones really will do that. Or a lot do after awhile. You can get a hip circle with a slip grip inside but they are a little harder than the mini bands at first

Sitting at the desk all day has left me with major lower back pain. This workout was a relief! I haven't worked out in a while, but this will help me ease into it again. THANK YOU GUYS! Loved the routine, it wasn't super hard but definitely nice for an evening workout in between study sessions.

@JayJasperLondon 6 лет назад

Solin T. Have u checked in with ur GP? Because I thought the same thing and it turned out to be scoliosis. U can get headaches as well which I would’ve ascribed to the sitting/office work too so I’m glad I found out the reason by chance (an orthopaedic doctor looking at my back) ..And it made all the difference in the world having had the diagnosis 🙂👍🏻

I used ankle weights. Woke up just not into any jumping today upper body sore from a strength workout. I think you are so right. It's not flashy or exciting but having suffered back and knee issues and now arthritis, pilates is important.

@bilalbhatti9898 6 лет назад

It was 8 p.m. I'm tired, been studying and sending out job applications all day. Was gonna skip a workout today, but figured pilates is a nice "recovery" workout. Man did I need this! The 4k is a nice touch too! :p

@margaretwright6677 5 лет назад

Thank you for the workout. I've been meaning to workout with you guys for a while. But losing my mother in August took a hit on me emotionally. But also is also my motivation, because she died too young from health issues due to a poor diet. Thanks again.

I feel so relaxed and peaceful after this one. Completed at 10pm, was going to skip working out today but I'm glad I did this! Even though I did not sweat, I know my butt and thighs will be sore tomorrow!

@alyssamcmillan6690 5 лет назад

I enjoyed this workout from start to finish. It caught my eye and I usually do the HIIT workouts this was nice for a change!

@chriskronish3046 4 года назад

Great workout. No muss, no fuss, no BS, just simple exercises at a great pace with good instruction. As hard as you want to make it, and good stretching and really felt like it was a great workout. I really appreciate that it's simple and without extraneous commentary about random things that don't have anything to do with the exercises. Very calming effect. Thanks so much!

Your gentle informational health and fitness advice inspires me to be a better me! I really hope that I am as inspired to continue working out with your videos as I feel right now!

@eifanisa 6 лет назад

thank you Kelli! this workout really make my body wants to work out again after a loong break.

@marianneporter26 6 лет назад

This is exactly what I needed today. Not too difficult but I think I will feel it later as you have warned. I have glute, hip and hamstring issues and these videos really help me work through those problems and therefore enable me to do harder workouts and run again.

@Lcmsguru 6 лет назад

These kinds of hip strengthening exercises are exactly what brought me back from a herniated disc many years ago. I love to keep doing them and strengthens my core and I no longer have back problems. Thanks for all you do!

You've always made working out fun and just about learning to respect and understand your body and move at your own pace. Admittedly I've tried to click on your HITT series to "go big or go home" but I'm so glad I chose this one to start over again. Thank you for always being here.

@tijanaaaa7183 6 лет назад

@samanthatatman6297 5 лет назад

Y'know, I really enjoy how gentle these exercises are. Some of them I had to do for physical therapy, especially the clamshells. I remember that my physical therapist said the clamshells can be made more difficult by allowing the shoulders to move forward, that way all of the effort is placed on the hip. Either way, thank you both for these videos!

@mountaingirl3322 5 лет назад

I just completed your workout for the very first time and I wanted to let you know I really enjoyed it. I have quite a few medical conditions which limit my mobility and even though I felt the workout in my muscles it wasn't painful. When I was younger I was able to do more intense workouts, but that's just not the case any longer. So thank you very much!

@safiamateen7759 5 лет назад

Day 32. I didn’t want to go too hard today because I’m fasting. But I binged on ice cream yesterday. It’s been a while since I did that. I’m disappointed but progress isn’t linear and at least I did something today. This one was refreshing and gave just that nice bit of burn. Thanks!

@babelove45 6 лет назад

I loved this workout! It was nice and calming but still made me sweat. I think that I will be doing pilates on Mondays from now on!

@golkiwi8783 6 лет назад

D'ya Francois That's the exact way of workout. If you work fast you won't get that much tone out of it because your body try to compensate by rushing and then you skip those hard muscle activities .

Well I've been demanding my body to do exercises and never listened, well my body rebelled with major IT band issues and pain. These glute and hip stability workouts have been doing wonders for my pain and mobility. I'm finally able to squat pain free for the first time in like 2 years. Thank you 🙌🏾

Hi Kelli. I’ve always loved Pilates, but it’s been a while since I’ve done any since I’ve been getting into more strength training and HIIT. So this felt extra good today. Loved the focus on the legs and butt. Thanks for an excellent routine!
