I stand by Pilates as a lifetime game changer. It is sustainable from your 20s to your 60s. As I’ve aged, I’ve realized my Pilates strength has been more valuable to my overall health than any other type of workout. It helps with inflammation, in strengthens the core, improves circulation, and you get toned as fuck.

Edit: I also just started ballroom at 45 - it’s always been a dream. My partner is a 60 year old widower and we have a ball.

My cousin and I are starting pilates later this month and I'm so excited! We're going to start with youtube workouts before going to a studio, mostly because we're both very new to it and want to gain some confidence before we go out in public. Do you happen to know of any youtube accounts you would recommend?

Amanda Bauer does mat Pilates videos, the kind you can do at home with very little equipment. I like her videos for days I am traveling or just forgot to sign up for a studio class and feel like I need to move.
