35 Minute Pilates Workout for Butt and Thighs - At Home Pilates Workout

[@fitnessblender]

I wanted to share a couple of things. First, I have not done any HIIT or strength training for well over a year now (note: my pain is/was not related to either HIIT or strength training). I often see people stressing out about a missed workout, or a missed week of workouts, thinking that they are going to lose all of their progress if they don't stick to the grind. I just took a year off of any intense workouts whatsoever! I know that my body has changed but I am still at a healthy bodyweight and I am still healthy. If you keep a calm mind (don't panic), do the physical activity that you are able to at any given point, and make sure that you're eating healthily, all hell won’t break loose. I share this in hopes to encourage you to keep a less militant attitude about your own workouts. I actually had to work really hard to be able to get to a point where I could even do this particular routine, something that would have been very easy for me before. When I first started doing this routine after my setback, I was only able to do 3-4 reps, one time through. I felt so weak. But I kept at it. Just a little at a time. I am on my way to rebuilding, and can now do these exercises for ten reps, twice through. That's progress! And instead of being ticked because "I'm not where I was", I'm celebrating my steps forward. I will not talk negatively about my body; these are the times when our bodies most need us to show up mentally and say "I've got you. We can do this". Keep reading @ bit.ly/2LU4dCV

[@jules11yates]

FitnessBlender Way to go, Kelli. 🙌🏻 I like what you said about showing up mentally for our bodies. I had never thought of it that way before. Thanks!

[@AlgediNordblad]

I'm so happy you feel better, Kelli, you rock! This routine was awesome, perfect for a few days of break between programs. And thank you for your words. I definitely stress about missing workouts, but you're so right about staying positive. I'm really trying my best to stop panicking and talking negatively about my body, and I owe most of my progresses to you, guys. Thank you Fitness Blender!

[@lilachn55]

Omg i happy to see u back!!!!!!

[@ysabeluhh3976]

This is spot on and exactly what I needed to read. Thank you for changing my life for the better. So glad you're back!!!!!! 💓 from the Philippines!

[@alvadee]

FitnessBlender good to have you back Kelly. We’ve missed you! I haven’t worked out in a while and this was a perfect way to get back into that motivation. Thank you🙏🏻💞

[@lajjadesai7305]

Cant find the right words to express my joy to see u back Kelli....Missed u both soo much...Welcome back!!!

[@pink9976]

Welcome back kelly!! Working out in your own clothing line🎉🎉

[@antoinevogler8022]

2 years later, but I need to express how happy I am to see you back Kelly: thank you for everything

[@jdneilso]

Didn't even watch yet but....WELCOME BACK!!!!!!

[@ArthurMorganVP]

What I love most about bridges is that it's the moment when my chihuahua Spunky decides to use my stomach as a pillow, and stays there even while I do the repetitions. Can that be described as "adding weights?" :)

[@hilakedem9227]

honestly Ive tried several workout videos but i just always find that you guys work best for me. not just physically but also mentaly; you are the most wholesome fitness channel ive seen and honestly thats so needed and so helpfull and incureging! thank you thank you thank you, you are honestly the best

[@rachelwest6134]

Kelly I missed you so much I cried the entire way through this work out 😭 I am so glad you're able to work out again, you are such a strong woman and your honesty and vulnerability in an industry that only showcases "perfect" people is so inspiring to me and so many others

[@menna2287]

I’m only watching this in bed, because I miss you Kelly! I can workout with you later, but let me just watch you in peace for now ♥️

[@alenawrought2221]

Welcome back girl missed you!❤

[@cynthiakarkeys]

This was the workout I didn’t know I needed... After almost two months of not working out, I hurt my bad knee during a warm-up. I never want to do the low impact versions of HIIT, so I searched for a lower body workout on the FB website that would be soft on my knees and found this. The encouragement Kelly have during the whole workout, my heart is filled and my workout is complete.

[@anitahendrix7573]

Just finished this workout. Soon glad you two are back. I also had a bad year 2018 .Gained 10lbs and wasn't doing many workouts. But I'm back now and a new year. At75 I'm no spring chicken but refuse to give up. Thanks for your inspiration.

[@agatadabrowska3338]

Kelli, you are such a warrior! Having you back and working out with us is the best way to start this new year. I wish you all the best, seriously ❤️

[@emmao2820]

Yes i love your Pilates workouts and I’ve been wanting to do some today after my strength training!!! Welcome back Kelly ❤️❤️

[@shela3081]

please are pilates workouts meant to loose fat? because i wanna slim my thighs and butt.

[@gracey211026]

New workouts in january was always the best part of my new year! I want to get into a healthy lifestyle again. This will be a perfect place to start! Welcome back Kelli

[@kateg3179]

This video means a lot to me. The modifications and suggestions that Kelly gives her exactly what I’ve been looking for in a workout video. I’ve been using fitness blender for years but after a severe car accident 10 years ago there’s no good video saying if you can’t do squats because your ankle doesn’t bend or you have such severe arthritis, try this method. I really feel like this is the first video I’ve ever watched that helped me get A good workout on my broken and modified level. Thanks Kelli, I’m sure you weren’t planning on being an advocate for how to work out around pain and restrictions but you reached me on a level I didn’t think possible :)

[@fenklein457]

Welcome back Kelly. Good to have you back. Just the workout I needed with having a severe cold and lower back problems. Much love.

[@riagoyal4094]

Kelli I'm so glad you're taking care of yourself. You look great!

[@watyameer8904]

Welcome back FitnesBlender❤

[@sparkle5675]

You have changed my life, thank for providing free workouts for every ability. I recommend you to anyone who will listen ❤

[@kislyakova]

Oh it feels so good to be doing it. So gentle. And it feels so good after. I do this workout every time my body tells me it wants something slow, gentle and recreational. Thank you Kelli so much, and welcome back! We missed you :)

[@TheDanielaoso77]

Well this is my first workout of the year I'm starting at 155.6lb I don't feel my best because of my BMI 25.2 and BF 29.6 BW 51.3 so I'm starting slow with walking my dog 2 miles and your workout videos I'll update in one month of working out & walking 5x wish me luck 👍🏻😁 2month I’ve lost 12 pounds and lost 5 inches of my waist just walking and working 4 times a week and one month without coffee and I feel amazing I’ll update in a month 👍🏻😊

[@emmairwin581]

I hope everything’s going well !!

[@kellie6689]

Hats off Kelly for being such a fighter! You earned your workout complete. Yayyy!

[@30125209]

Lovely to have you back Kelly!!! So happy you are feeling better. Im back to excerising again after childbirth, my daughter is 15 months and i am ready to start my journey again with you and daniel, was super excited to do this my first excerise routine again with you. This was definitely what i needed to ease back into it. I love love this routine, thank you for everything that you do. Love you guys!! Stay strong. You badass..

[@hijlaa]

So glad you are back Kelli! I needed your words in the comments tbh. I recently got back from a 5 day incredible trip and loved every minute, but hated the fact that the food wasn't as healthy as I wanted it to be and I couldn't workout. I've been looking at my body thinking that you can tell I took a few days off and it bums me out because it's in my mind. I need to check myself again and let it go

[@kppp3653]

Kelli, you've been the only constant in my life over the last one and half year. I just want to say thank you ❤️

[@leahmarie6850]

I've never been more excited for a Monday until now! I've missed working out with #FitnessBlender!

[@allthingsnovella4949]

I am glad I'm back...its been awhile and I am not as in shape as I was a few years ago so...thank you for this gift.

[@skobedo]

I'm so happy that you are back. I have fallen out of my health routine over the past year and have decided it is time to get back on it. I am so happy that you have started making new videos. I enjoy all of your videos so much. Thanks so much and welcome back!

[@raindownxx]

Welcome back! I'd been working out with you guys for years and it changed my life. While we never personally met, seeing you working out - and hoping this means you're doing better - filled my heart with joy, like great news from one of my best friends. Thank you for everything! Take it easy, your fans care about your well-being.

[@alejandrasantiago6420]

Welcome back! I know how it is to leave physical activity because of an illness (Hashimoto's disease in my case), and the happiness to be able to do somewhat the same things from when you were healthy, so I can only feel happy for you to come back!!! We really missed you. So continue taking care of yourself :)

[@rebeccasalter4081]

Literally finished one of your old workouts only a minute ago. Leaving this tab open so I can tackle this tomorrow. So glad my favourite KZbinrs are back!

[@annam1912]

Oh it's so good to have you guys back and for me to be back as well, I been working out with you guys since 2015, you guys made me love my body again, I feel in love with working out. I took a break durning 2018 where stress and doing other things took over, I came to the point where I hated working out. I hate how I treat my body right now, I am now starting to take fitness seriously again :)

[@minnam275]

Yaaayyy welcome back for all of us! I also have been on a break for about a year (used to be FB HIIT girl🏃🏼‍♀️) and been thinking what program to do to get back and not to feel bad about not been able to do what I used to. This was absolutely perfect!! I hope Kelly would do more this kind of the workouts or even “get back to track “ 30 days program.

[@miahansen8942]

DEFINITELY investing in your new clothing line once I get a job. I love you guys. I have suffered from chronic pain, and knowing what Kelli has been going through really inspires me because I know I'm not alone. Thank you so much. I've been following this channel for 4 years, it's relatable, inspirational, and life-changing.

[@aamisid]

Yay!!! Kelly is back! This was just what I needed. You are an inspiration.

[@samanthamedina6842]

You guys are lifesavers! Cant wait to get my 'Workout Complete'! Im so glad to have you guys back. Love you Kelli❤Love you Daniel❤

[@TheBrightAngel13]

So glad you’re back and feeling good enough to work out with us!!! #workoutcomplete

[@kaylaross4145]

I just wanted to say that fitness blender has changed my life. I used to struggle to find ways to exercise that I didn’t hate. But fitness blender is fun, challenging, and full of variety. Since starting fitness blender I have lost ten pounds in a year. That may not sound like that much and for awhile I didn’t think so either and as a teenager I struggled with confidence in my body. I wanted to lose more weight faster. But fitness blender videos have encouraged me to eat a healthy diet and workout (not too much like I was tempted to do). So ten pounds may not sound like that much but I lost it healthily. Never leaving myself hungry or in pain from too much exercise. I am now closer to my fitness goals all thanks to fitness blender!

[@fitnessblender]

Yay! Thanks, Kayla! So glad that you're enjoying the videos...keep up the good work!

[@irinayugiohfan]

Welcome back, Kelli! I'm so happy right now! I missed you guys very much! ❤️ Happy new year!

[@teighleemarie]

Thank you both for taking the time out to share another awesome workout!!

[@mewmew_nc]

Thank you for being back! You have no idea how inspiring you are. Thanks so much Kelli.

[@mekeiawatson]

Thank you for giving me my life back for all these years! I've started my healthy journey with y'all and I'll finish it with y'all! Love from Alabama! Workout complete, Kelly and Daniel!

[@Jennevere11]

Yay Kelli is back and looking so healthy and strong! Saving this for my pilates workout later this week...

[@aliciaseen]

so happy you guys are back! I've been following you both since 2014. Could not live without your workout videos. Always feels like you're right there working out with me and motivating me. Thank you.

[@christinazink355]

I'm really struggling to get back into working out after our first baby. Honestly, these workouts are perfect. I love how you have 10, 20 and 30 minute options. Also, you two do such a great job commentating as well as helping to inspire ant motivate people. I feel like you always meet your viewers where they are in their health journey. Thank you!!!

[@rev6688]

I loved how mindful this practice was. It was a perfect way to ease into a Friday, get fit but not burn myself out at the end of a busy week. It also allowed me to correct my posture and really target the best spots of the muscle. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for 🙌🏻

[@sciain]

Thank you Kelli. Back in October I had already completed 4 weeks of FB Fit but then I had to stop for two weeks and I was just feeling overwhelmed, I couldn't seem to find my way back. I've tried rescheduling, then starting again from the beginning, but something felt off. Today I've decided to put FB Fit aside (for now) and I've started Low Impact 2 to show some kindness to my body. Seeing that day 1 was actually your first day back was kinda special, I appreciate everything you said. We've got this 💪

[@julien.8277]

Welcome back! Love working out to your videos! I’ve noticed, for myself, if I take a long “break” (yea, let’s call it a break. I wasn’t lazy or anything. Lol) from working out, one great thing I have noticed is my body doesn’t forget; nor does it take long to get back to where I was before. That feeling is awesome!

[@lotstothinkgaming]

I am overjoyed to see you back Kelli! And you are working out in your own clothing line!!!! So many happy feelings!!

[@sedasarayli9484]

Welcome back Kelly great to see you again and I hope you feel better than before😊

[@kstachel1940]

Welcome back Kelly! I have some ongoing chronic back issues and in the "painful phases" workouts like this are a life saver! Most times I can do Pilates and gives me the very good feeling to be able to do at least some physical activity :)

[@AlexandraAndStuff]

I've been in chronic pain for almost 5 years now, it got me to some really dark places. Seeing you handling your problems is inspiring. I am looking forward to listening what you have to say about it, always looking for some advice on how to handle pain! I've ditched both my workouts and clean eating for the last year. I hope to be back, because I love the way things were. All the best, Kelli and FB Family!

[@Justgeedoingme2786]

So awesome to see you and work out with you again Kelly!!!! Also, your warm up routine was 'da bomb!' You and Daniel consistently come up with unique transitions that keep us coming back for more!!!! Love it!!!!

[@bitethesun]

So nice to see you back and great advice about being so hard on ourselves; so true!

[@kishmakelly3615]

I tried this workout today and loved it... it was so easy to follow along and the workouts burn but didn't leave me sore afterward thanks to the cool down...so glad your back.

[@trup1989]

I'm new to Fitness Blender, I have been doing your videos for about a week now and I feel great! Thank you!

[@julymoongirl]

I loved the pep talk at the end and all the positive encouragement throughout. So glad to have you back again, Kelli! And my workout is complete!

[@johngalvin6010]

You do feel so much better after this workout, more flexible. In a less exaggerated way like that toy "stretch armstrong" some kids had when I was much younger. Thanks Kelly.

[@viviloveschips]

Welcome back, Kelli! :D I really enjoyed doing this workout "with" you today. I'm also having to "start over" from beginner workouts ...I had gone through a few of your older workout programs a few years ago and had the strength to do your super long 1000 calorie workouts back then, but after starting my first full-time job and moving out on my own, it got harder for me to find time to workout, and I gradually mostly stopped. So now I'm starting up again a few days a week with Pilates and low impact cardio. I'm excited to see that you're back and able to workout again, and I'm praying for a complete recovery for you!

[@christenafromnovascotia]

I am a 42 year old mom of 2 boys. I have been doing your videos 5 days a week for 4 months and I feel great! I love your variety, I never get bored! This workout kicked my butt 😁 Welcome back 🤩 Sending love from Nova Scotia xoxo

[@elliebaird1709]

My whole household has been down with the flu for a week and today I finally felt like doing a little something and this was perfect for easing me back in without pushing myself too much! I so enjoyed working out with you and I have to say you seem different in a GOOD way! I sense a new level of knowledge and confidence from you! Thanks for always being honest and open! ♥️

[@sylviannedelaney2984]

Great workout. Love the slow factor - makes it so much harder. Thank you and welcome back xo

You're amazing, never forget it!

[@FayhaMullaji]

[@ahobbs6421]

Pure honesty and positivity! Glad to have you guys back and your humanity in what you feel and how your physical capabilities have waxed and waned is refreshingly easy to relate to. I need this today and I hope that everyone watches continues to learn to love themselves a little more each day!

[@hannahella6563]

It's awesome to see how much you enjoy being back. It has given me the extra motivation I needed to work out today. I have really struggled to stick to a routine for this past year, because uni has been full on and I've sort of been all over the place and always tired. So this was really good. It didn't feel too tiring and thanks to you I didn't feel bad for only doing a light workout without cardio, but good to have done one. It's so nice to have you back!!

[@xCrosseyedCirclex]

Felt super tired today and had zero motivation to work out, and then I saw this video! My tired body is thankful and I'm super happy you're back
