PILATES X LIGHT WEIGHTS

14 DAY CHALLENGE

These classes feature a set of light hand weights (0.5kg-2kg) If you don't have weights, you could fill up 2 bottles of water or use anything around the house to act as weights or try without weights - they are effective with or without!

​

Using weights increases the intensity of these Pilates exercises. I've created the classes to be suitable for all from beginners to more experienced. The first modification if anything feels too strong today is to drop the weights and carry on using your bodyweight only
