I am so continually frustrated with the promotion of this type of fitness content for women. Marketing specifying that certain workouts will make you "lean," "toned," and so on…it's kind of evil, IMHO. If people really want to support women's health, they should talk (like Justina does!) about the value of strength training for preventing osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and other diseases of aging. Great video, Justina, thank you.

Full disclaimer, as a competitive PL athlete with a BSc in ex sci, this person feels like pilates just for the aesthetic that does the boring, same-old thing of preying on women's insecurities. 🤷‍♀Fit Literature did a cool podcast episode on pilates and talks about the evolution from a rigorous and specific and difficult-to-achieve certification to what it's most commonly seen as today (young, thin, white women doing some floor ab moves). Love your content, as always, Justina!

It’s toning being in every video title for me - Pilates is a full body exercise system, and I think that any legit instructor would know that and want to educate people on the purpose of the work, so the whole spot reduction thing makes me suspicious. Also the “Pilates inspired” workouts and cycle syncing - are big red flags to me. She is definitely using language that her followers are using which is why I think her marketing is successful, but it’s lacking the integrity of the Pilates method imo

While I also do not agree with quite a few of the marketing choices, the cycle syncing series is one I go back to regularly - she was the first instructor clearly encouraging to listen to my body, do gentle movement right before and on my period and still feel like doing something good for my overall health on those days :)

I used to be a member of Bailey's app (actually it was before she rebranded to Align, but I don't remember what it was orginally called). She's a great instructor, but the thing about Bailey is I think she 100% believes that you can spot reduce and also thinks other fitness misinformation you often hear when it comes to pilates is true. I also used to follow her on Instagram and it was honestly a giant red flag. I do hope that she's learned that that's just not how the body works, but I have a feeling she hasn't.

Another pov here: i've been following her for a very long time. Bailey is a certified pilates instructor, she was a regular instructor for years before she moved fully online. But i do take her with a grain of salt: you can often see on her instagram that she believes in zodiac signs 😅 Recently a lot of her content is aimed at the 'pilates girl vibe' and i get that, thats her selling point because she knows the audience out there. But her workouts are awesome, beautiful and butt kicking ❤ also, her hormone program is written together with a dietician and an a doctor so its not like she made it up. She always says to follow your body, its like her motto. And while i dont necessarily like the cycle program i do use it while on my period: the workouts avoid underbelly area which is perfect for someone like me with extreme pains. I definitely will keep on working out with her ❤❤

Pilates has been one of my favorite (read: challenging but not so hard as to discourage me) exercise since high school. I was a bookish, introverted and uncoordinated kid who hated all the sports I was forced into playing. I did it again after an injury a few years ago, and found myself returning yet again after a csr accident. I'm not at all the target audience of the marketing (tall, fat, curvy Black woman), and the current discourse and hype around it makes me feel a bit alienated from it. I saw your recommendation for *Kinstretch (whoops!)--definitely going to look into that for a change of pace!

On a different line, I'd love a video on hyrox workouts one day, the principles behind that style, etc. I've been getting loads of these workouts on my feed so I think it'd be good to learn properly about the concept from someone as knowledgeable as you are.

Speaking of genetic advantages, I keep falling for the idea of a long thin body a lot of these fitness influencers basically sell, and it's one thing to realize they were born this way, but what really adds insult to injury is that most of them are former ballerinas or rythmic gymnasts. Their natural advantages have been enhanced by very specific rigorous training in early childhood, which is just unattainable for most people. I still love pilates, it makes my body feel good and my bad back hurts less, but I will never be lean and long, that’s just the reality of it

But it was really great to see them talking about the situation in that honest, "we just don't know enough" kind of way on an app with so many users wondering exactly this.

I like to do one Pilates or yoga class per week for some core and flexibility work, and my favorite online Pilates instructor, by far, is Jeni Delpozo. She used to teach on the Glo app, but I think she’s broken away and has her own app now. She doesn’t talk about toning or weight loss AT ALL, and I think she has a certification. I also pretty much exclusively do Heather Robertson strength workouts (I hate it when people talk to me when I’m working out 😂), so I’m eager to see what you have to say.

I followed her for a few years, I liked her videos and her coaching style. But then something changed: she disappeared for a certain period and became decidedly thinner again, starting to post much shorter videos and convey ambiguous messages on how to "solve" weight problems due to hormonal imbalances. And at that point, very loud alarm bells started ringing in my head: no thanks, I've had enough of these vague and unscientific approaches. Ps: forgive my english please 😅

I tried one of her workouts years ago when she first started posting videos. She seems very personable, but like you Pilates isn’t my cup of tea. I had watched her Q&A back then and checked it again, and she doesn’t mention a Pilates certification. She’s from Canada, and started teaching in a studio there, and then in Australia after she moved there. I’m guessing there is no certification or she’d mention it. Pilates is popular on my Video Fitness forum, we range from 40-70 years old. Most of us find that traditional strength training is harder as we age, so many turn to Pilates. However, Bailey isn’t really popular with them, even though they like her personality. I’m guessing it’s the messaging, we’re all past that mess lol.

Am I the only woman on the planet earth who has never had a desire to be thin, lean, and "toned"? I have always wanted a strong body with muscles because I think it makes day to day life much easier, and as a bonus, it's sexy as hell. Think Janet Jackson in the 90's. THAT'S who I always wanted to look like, not some delicate flower who would fall over at the slightest breeze. Maybe I'm the weird one, IDK.

Ok, so I know that she is super popular, along with Move With Nicole and some other people on KZbin. What bothers me about sooooo many Pilates videos on KZbin is that many of them, BB included, is that you cannot find their credentials. Additionally, most of the workouts have no Pilates at all in them. Now with that said, you did bring up contemporary vs classical, and contemporary is a lot more expansive than classical. My training is through Balanced Body and we learn two things…movement principles which is a lot of the pre-Pilates work designed to support your mat work, but also the classical repertoire. This is what is missing from sooooo many Pilates videos on KZbin. I won’t be elitist and say that pre-Pilates is not real Pilates, because it is designed to help you achieve the classical mat work, but I will be elitist enough to say that if you’re marketing a class as a Pilates class, then you need to have at least some of the original exercises the man himself created in the class. The original exercises can be modified versions too. The thing with pre-Pilates is that it’s supposed to help you get to the harder work, but if you never do the repertoire, then you are simply doing Pilates inspired fitness. Is this bad? Not really, but call it what it is. In a 30 minute class, you can easily get the ab series in, a few roll ups, a round of the hundred, spine stretch forward, leg circles. My other gripe is that Pilates is more whole body movement than targeting body areas. I mean, sure, could you add a set of 1 or 2 lb hand weights to your roll up, or ankle weights to your ab series, sure, if you want to add a little bit more somethin somethin. Do you have to? No, because a balanced Pilates session should be full body, with multiple body shapes (flexion, extension, lateral flexion, rotation, tall spine) and positions (sitting, supine, prone, on the side). There should be a warm up, a core challenge, a peak exercise period, and a cool down. Margaret does a great job with mixing a more fitness aspect with the traditional mat work and mentioning that she is certified. I love that Margret does not use body shaming language. I hate the expectations that Pilates will transform your body because honestly, it’s diet and genetics, and I really hate how misleading these kind of workouts (BB and countless others) are giving people the wrong impression about what Pilates is. I would suggest that you try @pilates_by_ashiya and see what you think. She’s BASI mat certified working on her comprehensive training. She does some prep work but she does a lot of the repertoire, including a lot of intermediate and advanced stuff. Getting off my soapbox now, but basically, I don’t like the message and marketing, and I don’t think I have ever seen BB do a traditional mat exercise. Ever.

@@JustinaErcole ha ha ha thanks. I’m sick and a little feisty when I am sick. I am passionate about Pilates, and while I try not to be that person who says that isn’t “real Pilates” I am also that person who wants to educate people on the history of Pilates and what it really is, because it’s become a bit of game of telephone where a lot of people don’t have any idea what Pilates is. They don’t know that it was created about 100 years ago by Joseph Pilates or that it was called contrology when he was alive. They don’t know that there is a set of exercises designed to be done in order. In my training, we actually only do two or three pulses on a handful of exercises. Quadruped exercises are foundation exercises. They technically don’t exist in the classical order, but opposite arms and legs reaching is helpful for swimming which is in the classical order, help prepare for front plank exercises like leg pull down and push ups. Anyway, with the 34 classical exercises, you could do other exercises that support the movement, but why limit yourself to the foundation exercises only? The goal is to be able to run through the order. I am totally fine with mixing it up and having fun, but I do think it is important to understand the importance of the pre-Pilates exercises and how they help the repertoire. I do think it’s important to have a few traditional exercises in a class. Creativity is fun and fine, but why reinvent the wheel all the time? At the end of the day it’s movement. And movement is good. And if BB and others suck people in on their red flags movement sessions and people are happy with that, who am I to deny them that pleasure? But I do believe that Pilates, because it’s so generic now, is evolving and it’s hard to know how far it will evolve before we lose sight of the original concepts and material.

I have bad knees so pilates was recommended to me, I find super hard but boring 💤 😅. I wish there was an option where I could do strength workouts other than pilates. I also dont feel welcome as a black latina women its feels like the marketing is for a very specific white thin girl.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I agree the marketing can feel very exclusive. I would look into Kinstretch! It’s like yoga meets strength training and really great for your joints. I’m happy to recommend some facilitators if you like :)

@@JustinaErcole omg thank you so much🥺, my knees always discouraged me when doing lower body movements so I would look into this. I'm not in the USA anymore but can I look that online? Or look for instructors here in Colombia? 🤔

@@LuuCaicedo You're so welcome! There's two instructors I love that have online platforms: Kinstretch with Hunter and Kinstretch with Beard. But you can also use the FRS website to find an in-person provider: functionalanatomyseminars.com/find-a-provider/

As someone who now does Pilates regularly, these reviewed workouts look like very imbalanced warmups

ooh thanks for your insight! i've done a lot of pilates in the past but have very little education around the classical practice.

@@JustinaErcole I’m yet to start my instructor training, so only student/observer experience :) The workout or warmup is mostly done around core/center. But it will be taken in all directions - flection, extension, lateral extension. I had some glutes heavy classes. But never without prepping core first.

Thigh gap?😂 is it 2007 again? All of these moves can be found in the Jane Fonda workouts that some kind soul has uploaded to youtube. And with those, you get leotards, leg warmers, big hair and back-up exercisers randomly belting out power ballads- better in every way!

appreciate you using gender neutral language to talk about periods! i'm non-binary and the women = periods association in a lot of health and wellness marketing is so frustrating,
