I have never in my life enjoyed exercise. I'm autistic and have adhd. I've always struggled not only to be engaged but to enjoy the workout itself. Until now. THANKYOU Nicole for all you do. I've never in my life enjoyed moving my body, feeling my strength grow and sticking to it. I really am grateful for creating a workout that I'm confident to try and not be embarrassed to workout at home. I can't really quite explain it but just thankyou. ❤️

[@spiffyspaz94]

Same with adhd! I always have struggled to stick with anything because it's work and no reward. But her channel I always can find at least something for the length I'm willing to do that day and I enjoy doing it and even find myself looking forward to the next day! I stay engaged, relaxed, and challenged

[@jabrayjay6679]

This is so lovely, I'm happy for you!

[@maxwellversed]

[@beautifulsoul7446]

I do this twice daily. Morning and night. It has helped me build strength! Also couldn’t finish without breaks when I first started, now I feel the burn but I’m able to keep going.. no breaks. Thank you so much, Nicole.❤

[@user-rm2wh9fl4v]

Please do more beginner-friendly! I am a couch potato and this intensity is just about right for me. Thank you!

[@kime9812]

Nicole, you don’t know how much of a big role you’ve played into healing my body and mental health. Dealing with an eating disorder, i used to label exercise as some sort of punishment that i ought to put my body through. But since i found your workouts i fell in love with moving my body in order to release stress and of course keeping it healthy. I won’t mention a lot about the visible changes i’ve seen in my body but of course, as I’ve been constantly doing these workouts for over a year now, i look and feel amazing. I always recommend your channel when i get the chance, I’ve done your workouts along with my friends. I can’t thank you enough for sharing this content, you’ve bring peace and health into my life, and probably into the life of many others. I hope you’re aware that your work is a blessing! Not everyone can’t afford pilates classes all the time, you are a great instructor and you make it fun. I just realized this as i’m in rush and i’ve just finished this workout, lol, i thought to myself “what would i do without her videos????!” bless you!

[@milo_thatch_incarnate]

Thank you for the ab contraction variations where you don’t actually do a full crunch! I’m pregnant, so I’m not supposed to do full crunches, so it’s really nice to not have to pause and try to figure out if I can do an exercise movement in a modified way; you just tell me how! I also appreciate these very short workouts, since I’m very tired and out of breath and nauseous these days 😂

[@kriziamanrique1156]

I felt this everywhere!! I thought that I was working out doing abs and legs exercises properly. But dang!! Pilates does humble you. I had to rest a few times on the legs portion. The abs and the side planks weren’t that bad but I felt it so bad. My whole body feels so much better after a few minutes. Feels like I can get back to actually feeling better at working out. Thank you! I will do this everyday and challenge myself to finishing the whole workout without resting. Btw if anyone is wondering, I am currently trying to get back into shape after two back to back pregnancies. It’s been 15 months postpartum. I will update y’all on my journey. I will actually do this workout everyday. Current weight: 165lbs 08/29/2024 5”2’

Following along with you has really made me a happier and healthier version of myself and I thank you so much for your amazing work. I get a little emotional at the end of each video, really feeling the workout but also the power behind the practice. Thank you so much for allowing me to gain my knew happiness within myself.

[@zainabfaisal1975]

So wish me luck everyone I’m already seeing changes in my appearance 💗(oh also I’m doing some light strength training with dumbbells a few times per week)

Day 7: my butt was burningggg Day 8: donee Day 9: had to take a 30 second break doing lunges bc my legs were burning so bad!! but i did it Day 10: doneee Day 11: doneee Day 12: doneee Day 13: doneee Day 14: 2 weeks done!! 🎉 im going to stop updating daily but i will be continuing to do these exercises and will come back with an update in a month! UPDATE: okay it's been a little over a month! I'm sorry to disappoint, but i haven't seen a drastic change so far. My legs feel stronger, but I think my body looks the same as when I started. Also the workout itself is still pretty difficult. I'd say if you're aiming for a month, keep at it! Maybe do it twice a day for faster results 🤷🏼‍♀️ (I do it once a day)
