@@caselynapolinario5032 Unfortunately, all the pilates clubs are closed right now. Can't wait for them to reopen.

Thank you Roxanne!

No answer, I see 🙄

Wondering same thing!

These are meant to be sample workouts. I would aim for 30+ minutes per day of Pilates or some kind of movement to start. And, move every day, but vary what you're doing. For strength training formats, 3-4 times per week - For cardio formats 4-6 days per week. Hope that helps. :)

Thank you...

The rest is in the same shape!

haha. His calves are great .But I also feel like they are the easiest muscle to build. Mine became defined and like rocks just from living in a place where I had to walk up a hill all the time lol

His whole body is well defined. He's got very little body fat, obviously.lol

John is amazing!!!

I got mine from craigslist but I think you can get some on Amazon in that price range.

Thanks - I'm a fitness nerd - I love everything! Yes - weights too. :)

Hi Nicole. Yes, we have dozens of full length, beginner Reformer workouts. We also have a progressive Beginner Reformer Series to help get you started. We hope you'll join us - and thanks for the nice comment! :)

Hi! Thanks for your comment. I would check out Amazon. Merrithew is the brand I recommend. It a great reformer made really well. They have a bundle for home that you can get - here's the link www.amazon.com/STOTT-PILATES-MERRITHEW-Reformer-Bundle/dp/B004FGT0TM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1534589220&sr=8-1&keywords=merrithew Best of luck.

John Garey TV thank you!

Hi there. You can use the Reformer for many many different exercises. A lot of times, we get stuck in the same few exercises. A good program has tons of variety. I do believe that the different pieces of Pilates equipment emphasize different things, but they can all accomplish a full body workout. Hope that helps. :)

Yes- I do - I love every form of exercise. I believe in doing what you love. I don't think you have to stick with one form or another.

I know some people use them for the Reformer workouts, but they're not ideal for a Pilates workout imo. I would research either Balanced Body (they make a great home version and have multiple price points), or Merrithew (which is the brand I'm using), as they also make an affordable home version. If you shop on Amazon or at Costco, you'll get the best shipping options as well.

I'm sorry - I'm not an expert in that area.

@@JohnGareyTV what 😲😲

Hi - It can get confusing, and I'm not in agreement with everyone on this for sure. What you described above is a more traditional Pilates position "the scoop and tuck". According to most schools, that is not neutral. Neutral is usually described as have the "natural" curve of the lower spine (lumbar). For most people the lower back would have a gentle curve forward and there would be a small space between your lower back and the mat, but not a forced or exaggerated curve. And, to help hold that position and support your lumbar spine, your abs are engaged on all sides, not scooped, but more like a built in girdle that wraps around the whole midsection and lower abs. I prefer that position for myself, but you need to try both and see which feels better to you. I personally don't think there's a wrong answer here, unless you have issues with your spine, etc. It's really what you're training toward and what feels best in my opinion. Also, there will be different exercises that require or may feel better with different position of the spine and pelvis. I hope that helps some. :)

You can do the same stretch as me, but it will feel slightly different (deeper).

He said he also lifts weights.

Traditionally, in Pilates, you only do 5-10 reps of each exercise.
