Pilates with Weights | 25 Minute Full Body Workout | Build Strength, Tone & Mobility

Join me for a full body pilates workout with weights to tone and strengthen your body. This 25 minute workout will use light weights to help you build more strength and control in your body as well as increase your bone density and muscle tone. The weights I am using are 1kg / 2 pounds but of course you can go lighter or a little heavier to suit you. You can also do the workout without weights if you prefer. This session focuses on control and would be especially beneficial for everyone including those with hypermobility as the weights help you focus on your joint placement and controlled mobility. Do leave me a comment to let me know how it was for you

That was fantastic! I have really been wanting to work on my arm and shoulder strength and this is just what I needed. Quite challenging (hence the need to work on my arms) but I will definitely be doing this one again (and again). Thank you so much Rachel for keeping me going with my exercise. I have not been as regular of late and was feeling a bit discouraged at having lost some muscle tone and balance, but you positive attitude and encouraging approach really helps make me want to keep going. Thank you!!

Hi Rachel, so happy to see this. I have not done any Pilates for a while but tut today I thought I would pop back to you and see what new videos you have, it has inspired me to start Pilates again. I have missed it. This year is the first year since 2020 that I have no operations and health issues, I can now start to fully get back to exercising like I was before. I also see you have a new arms workout with the chair cant wait to so that one too. Thank you for all your content, I have been super busy launching my makeup line eekkkkk. launching tomorrow :))))) absolutely thrilled it is finally here

@TheGirlWithThePilatesMat 9 ай бұрын

Hi Sarah, how lovely to hear from you. I know you have had a tough time over the last few years so I am so happy to hear the health issues are behind you and you are able to come back to exercise. Remember to be easy on yourself, I know you push yourself very hard so take it one step at a time. The arm workout withthe chair is a great one for toning the arms and I have lots of new vidoes for you to do since we last met. Enjoy getting back to your pilates!! ❤️ And oh my goodness, you are launching your own make-up line- CONGRATULATIONS! That is really wonderful Sarah, I wish you every success with it. Enjoy tomorrow!! xx

Amazing, well done. Your videos are the best on KZfaq though. @@TheGirlWithThePilatesMat I have around a half stone more to loose, I have lost a lot of the medication weight already, very slow progress. Just a little more to go

This made my day. I didn’t actually feel like exercising today and jumped on to do a quick bank exercise just to keep me active. And saw this. Amazing! It is going to change a heap of my other mat exercises. I prefer using a prop for some reason. I think it gives me something else to focus on. Thanks again. Your videos have changed my fitness game!

@TheGirlWithThePilatesMat 10 ай бұрын

Wonderful! Yes I do love a prop too, I find it helps increase the focus and really drill down into the essence of the exercose so I am delighted you enjoyed it. I'll be sure to make some more of these xx

Great job! And yes I think lighter weights 1kg would suit you better for this session. I'll make a nother session soon with some heavier weights so you can use the 2.5kg also. Have a lovely day ,Rachel xx

I loved this. Found it a challenging in a good way! My only “fail” was the roll up, I would need to nail my feet to the floor to come up. I had to resort to using my elbows and rocking up. I’m sure it still gave me a workout but it definitely wasn’t slow nor graceful. 😊 I was mixing up a few other KZfaq work outs but find I keep coming back to you most weekdays. Will you have more videos using weights? Thank you Rachel, from a 69 yr old nana from the Atlantic coast of Canada

@fayewhite7541 Ай бұрын

Just commenting on my own post 8 months later to acknowledge to myself how far I’ve come. Got the roll up figured out with a small cushion under my lower back. I found it a good workout but not as challenging as I did 8 months ago. Rachel is now my only go to. I try to do 3-6 of her workouts each week. ❤️
