"On some days, you go to your HIIT 'booty-building' workout class. Other days, your Pilates studio, which costs $180 per month, but at least they unenthusiastically ring a bell to celebrate your 50th class."
I hate the American culture around exercise · u/maple-abomb · ↑704 · 2024-07-27
"Went to a wedding and my wife is a part time Pilates instructor/mom. (Yeah I can't establish context without it coming off as a brag) Comments from multiple sources calling her too skinny when really she's very fit for a woman and has small boobs."
Thin shaming is so incredible. · u/AdditionalBase8636 · ↑476 · 2024-08-25
"Later a friend of mine was complaining that men don't leave their rooms and only game and swipe and blah blah blah. She was saying that every space she goes to is all women. What she did not note was that she only hangs out at Pilates, expensive coffee shops, and fem-coded bars essentially."
I walked around SOHO on a weekend night and it was 90% women · EmoRedneck · ↑389 · 2024-09-18
"Building lean muscles and getting stronger feels so addicting. When I had an ED I only did cardio to "burn calories," which was so stupid and unsustainable. Starving yourself is dumb, do pilates!!!!"

"You can also see the muscles in my shoulders, arms, abs, and back, which I never had before. My skin is glowing as well. Muscle mass and some tasteful fat will change your life. Thank you Pilates and LA fitness"
