and that’s why I combine it all now 😌🙌🏼 it’s a huge misconception that pilates or low impact/light strength training will give you "lean toned muscle". But there are 4 ways to change your body - gain muscle, lose muscle, gain fat, or lose fat. These super toned "Pilates bodies" come from having substantial muscle mass and less body fat. And the way to achieve that is through strength training, implementing progressive overload, dialing in on nutrition for muscle growth and fat loss and PUSHING yourself. Not a million arm circles with 2lb wrist weights ‼️ Pilates is AMAZING and I love it - I do yoga and Pilates at least 2x/week. It’s great for core strength, mobility, low impact movement, and variety. but the gym gives me the foundation. 🫶🏼 #pilatesprincess #pilatesbody #pilatesvsweights #hybridtraining #pilatesandweights
