It's the second group class of ten that I signed up. I took up pilates at a friend's recommendation, and it helps me to be aware of the different muscles that keep movement purposeful and body strong. How different it feels! I still have a long way to go, but it's a good start!
In today's class, after a 3 months' break to give the back pain a rest, I was able to follow most of the movements on the reformer except the last 2 sets. One requires me to balance on a ball while working the legs and the abs, it was difficult and I opted to just lie on the reformer without the ball. The other requires me to work the inner thighs and butt. The repetitions of forward movements, lifts and circular movements tired the muscles out, a clear indication that I need to do this set on my own daily to build up the muscles.
It feels good to sweat, really :)
