📆 Day 4 of my focus on my knees, today with Laura, from Form and Flow, who does a 27min, mat based Pilates session.

🧘🏽🧘🏿🧘🧘🏻I have to admit, having now done 5 sessions with 4 different Pilates or Yoga instructors, I wouldn’t be able to chose between them. I really like them all.
👩💻 And I’m sure for Pilates instructors across the globe it has been quite a shift to change to online delivery, but for the choice of workouts I suddenly have access to, it’s been great.
💿 I do remember a weak attempt of mine ca 17 years ago to get more fit with exercise DVDs and I had bought two sets. Both were way above my level, and I gave up (but did join a class for some time). But it just shows the luxurious position we are in for being able to chose from a large number of online available videos.
🚴 And Laura’s workout is different from the others, but also great. It does focus on a large section of sideways-lying pedalling motions, which start to really burn in your hips and thighs.
😓 These movements make your muscles burn, but without working up a sweat. So it does not quite feel like you were really working out. So to remedy that, and being inspired by @Maddee6333, I added my Day 1 workout as well, the lovely chair based session focussing also on knees, and with Pilates instructor Rachel.

🪑I might just chose that exercise to add to every workout, as being chair based, it might just provide something different after more sweaty standing workouts or those on the mat.
★Happy knees everyone!
