COREFIRST™ PILATES

Hi Sondra! I'm sorry to hear that. The great thing is that you (and are encouraged to) incorporate a chair, bed, or any other aids that would assist you in performing the workouts! Instead of laying down or standing too long, do the workouts from a chair!

Hi Naomi! Our content can be easily airplayed or screen mirrored to a tv! Unfortunately, to build an actual app for the Roku is typically reserved for much larger companies. We'll get there eventually!

Hi Melanie. Age is just a number, but have you checked out our Fat Burn series with Tracey Mallett?

leslie padron Hi Leslie! I gave my response below and also responded privately via email. Unfortunately, you said you had a Microsoft Computer and Airplaying is an Apple feature. I'm not as well versed in Microsoft computers, but here's an article that may help cast it onto your SmartTV: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/connect-a-wireless-display-to-your-windows-pc-f2239d99-3e61-bbcb-646e-c9d881bd39c4

With the introduction of our new Fat Burn program, let’s delve in to why resistance pilates is great for weight loss:

1. Increased Metabolic Rate: One of the key benefits of building muscle is its positive impact on your metabolic rate. Muscle tissue is metabolically active, meaning it burns more calories at rest compared to fat tissue. By increasing your muscle mass, you raise your basal metabolic rate, resulting in a higher calorie burn even when you're not exercising. This can contribute to more efficient weight loss and better weight management over the long term.

2. Improved Body Composition: Losing weight is not just about the numbers on the scale but also about achieving a desirable body composition. Building muscle helps to improve your body composition by increasing lean muscle mass and reducing body fat. This results in a toned and sculpted physique, giving you a more defined appearance as you lose weight.

3. Enhanced Fat Burning: Muscle tissue plays a crucial role in fat burning. During exercise, especially strength training, your body utilizes stored fat as fuel to support the muscle-building process. Moreover, having a higher muscle-to-fat ratio increases your body's capacity to burn fat even during periods of rest. By building muscle, you create a more efficient fat-burning machine within your body.

4. Increased Strength and Functionality: Strength training with resistance Pilates, which is essential for building muscle, improves your overall strength and functionality. As you gain muscle, you'll find everyday tasks become easier, and physical activities become more enjoyable. Building muscle also enhances your physical performance and makes you more resilient to injuries. This increased strength and functionality can have a positive impact on your overall quality of life.

5. Preserved Lean Mass During Weight Loss: During weight loss, there is a risk of losing both fat and muscle mass. By incorporating strength training and building muscle, you can help preserve your lean muscle mass while primarily losing fat. This is crucial because losing muscle mass can negatively impact your metabolism, making it more challenging to maintain weight loss in the long term.

6. Improved Insulin Sensitivity: Building muscle has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity. Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels, and insulin sensitivity refers to the body's responsiveness to insulin. By increasing muscle mass, you can improve insulin sensitivity, which may help prevent or manage conditions like type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

Thanks Susan. As I've stated the great thing is that ALL videos and workouts can be for beginners and pros. How do you customize to suit your level? By utilizing the modifications our instructors provide and choosing lighter resistances. As for a Body part you wish to work, you can head to the "filter feature" on the catalogue page and easily search by body part, accessory used, and length! :)

Hi Lisa, a solution to this would be to anchor your bands a bit higher. As for the second comment, do you mean the wraps fall down a bit when extending your arms? This can happen if the wraps aren't fully tightened around your wrists.
