[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

[@WildFloArt]

It's the first time in a long time I have exercised like this. Thank you@@PilateswithDonnaFinnie

[@lesliescott8069]

I love how she tells us we are doing good🥰

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

thats because you are !!! working out alone at home takes alot of detemination and self discipline... be proud of your efforts xx

[@jessamyinfinity]

Thanks Donna, you’re my favorite exercise instructor I’ve ever found! I love your accent, but more importantly I love your attitude! Your realness is so relatable and makes me feel seen and encouraged, even though you are obviously a very fit and lovely woman you acknowledge when the exercise is ‘spicy’! 🌶️ 😆 I love pilates the most out of all the exercises as well, kinda sad I never tried it til my 30s! Better late than never though, I have seen myself get results fast and feel better and stronger. Thanks for letting us have the invaluable resource of your knowledge and instruction for free! You’re a hero! 🎉

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

[@linac9895]

This is my favorite so far!!!!!

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

It quickly becoming a favourite with lots of people… enjoy x ❤️

[@pelo_chiclede_fresa7238]

Thank you so much for the challenge! It's the first time in years that I bother to exercise. This last video has me frustrated. I don't know how to engage my glutes, so I compensate with my quads... my physio says that my glutes are there just for show 😅 Any tips?❤

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Firstly huge well done … delighted you have jumped into this new year with the bar challenge… be v proud of yourself xx It might be worth doing some glute bridges to activate your glutes before you begin… using a band just above your knees can also aid in isolating the muscles… then start this or similar workouts x Move slow and think about where the movement is coming from & keep checking the position of your pelvis xx

[@pelo_chiclede_fresa7238]

@PilateswithDonnaFinnie Thanks! I'll try it, let's see if they decide to wake up

[@marshaharper-t3n]

This one was spicy. You make me laugh and I have fun. I stumbled across your channel and did some random videos. I love that you have started a program. I know there probably some I missed but I truly enjoy your classes

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Laughing , having fun, enjoying exercising …. This makes me so happy xx

[@181210st]

Day 6 round 2 done😊 It was still hard for my legs🫣😁

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Awesome commitment!! Hard but I am sure you are getting stronger 💪🙌👍 xx

[@dotkdesign]

oooo that was spicy!! love it! Thanks Donna x

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Isn’t it just 😅😅 xx

[@lisabeaman4347]

This was good! Very challenging!

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Isn’t it just !!! You did it 👍💪🥰

[@dalina87]

That was just 🔥. My glutes loved that. Actually my one side felt it better than the other

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Well done 👏 That’s often the way, we are not made equal and often it’s more challenging on one side than the other. It’s always good to learn new things about yourself xx

[@KarenHill-s5l]

This one, for me, was a difficult challenger (due to the hip obviously) and I actually cried at one point. But I will do the routine again!

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Please keep listening to your body … if an exercise is causing you pain rather than muscular engagement then I recommend stopping. There are so many workouts to choose from it’s 💯 fine to skip the ones that don’t feel good x x

[@KarenHill-s5l]

Hi, Donna. Don’t worry, I listen to my body….thats how I knew I would need to revisit this one. I cried with frustration really, but I only did what I could - which turned out to be not as much as I would have liked. However, my muscles around my hip are definitely strengthening so I know I will be able to do this session in the future. Thank you so much for your lessons. 🙌

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

@@KarenHill-s5l you are so welcome. Be very proud of all your efforts , it’s a tough gig working out on your own at home, your doing amazing xx

[@courtneyshanahan8908]

Really enjoying this Pilates bar and your challenge! You make me laugh with sone of your comments too. I love your personality. Really helps me engage :)

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Yay! Thank you! So kind !! I love that you are having fun as we workout together… it’s so good to laugh 🥰💯 xx

[@jacalynslegtenhorst6475]

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

[@antartikadewi2050]

I’m here for my day-6 🎉

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Fabulous 👍💯🙌x Enjoy 😉

[@ganonmustdie1]

The last few days have made me realize that there are muscles existing that I didn't know existed! I know that because I'm hurting in these exact places! 😂

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Great job! Sounds like you worked hard! Enjoy all those feels x

[@cassiasouza6544]

This was so hard! Could barely do the right side 😮

[@jessicacampbell1903]

Can you suggest alternatives if you have no bar or do workouts without the bar. I love side lying.

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

You can absolutely do the whole workout without a bar and still feel like you have fired up your muscles xx Enjoy xx

[@mzdboyd]

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Couldn’t agree more xx

[@johnr.7906]

Day 6: check!

[@PilateswithDonnaFinnie]

Awesome !! Loving your consistency. Favourite so far?? X
