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

๐ง๐ฝ๐ง๐ฟ๐ง๐ง๐ปI have to admit, having now done 5 sessions with 4 different Pilates or Yoga instructors, I wouldnโt be able to chose between them. I really like them all.
๐ฉโ๐ป And Iโm 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, itโs been great.
๐ฟ 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.
๐ด And Lauraโs 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.
๐ 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.

๐ชI 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.
โ Happy knees everyone!
