Wall Pilates Arm Workout for Toned Arms | Beginner + Advanced Options | Day 12

Wall Pilates Arm Workout for Toned Arms | Beginner + Advanced Options
#wallpilates #pilatesworkout #upperbodyworkout
This is a 20 Min Wall Pilates Arm Workout for Toned Arms. I have provided beginner and more advanced options to make this appropriate for all levels. This is an interval workout with 30 sec on, 15-25 sec rest. I encourage you to choose a heavier set of dumbbells if possible- we will be doing about 10 reps per arm, and the last few reps should be challenging. For reference, I am using 10lb dumbbells throughout the workout. If having "toned" arms is a goal for you, I encourage you to seek out pilates workouts that include resistance training with dumbbells. To achieve "toned" arms, it is necessary to challenge your muscles enough to build the base of muscle underneath the fat. Resistance training + a calorie deficit is the most effective way to achieve a toned arm look. Additionally, resistance training the arms will allow you to feel stronger in every day life, and perform daily tasks with more ease. I hope you find this workout challenging, find some new variations for the wall, and enjoy this 20 min Workout!

Day 11 done. Thank you. I didn't measure myself going in, but I know that I've either lost inches or tone up because I tried on a sweater that was a bit snug a few weeks ago, today it feels comfortable. Thank you.

Day 12 (6th July 2024) posting late but that was a great arm workout. I could have done with using heavier dumbbells but will definitely repeat that one!

[@bellisvogelius8264]

Hi, I am very grateful for all your videos, I have watched most of them several times now after I starteed to follow you ½ year ago. I feel I have gained more strength, balance and flexibility in my body. I was so tired and stiff in my body, but feel it has loosened up a lot. I am also very glad, that you show us alternative ways of doing the excersises.

[@rachelsfitpilates]

Wow, thank you. So glad u have been with me that long 😊

[@rachelsfitpilates]

That’s great! Glad u are seeing progress 😀

[@desteneemartinez7304]

Day 12 of the 30 day challenge completed. I didn’t get to my 30 mins cardio today ☹️. What a great arm workout. I completed this routine twice in hope to make up for my missed 30 mins cardio. TY Rachel 💪🏽💜

[@rachelsfitpilates]

Totally ok! I can’t always get mine in either

[@hadiarehman1728]

Day 12 went so fast, felt awesome, I Just used waterbottles instead of weights 😅 i am considering investing in them ❤

Day 12 work out done, used 2L of bottled water as alternative for dumbells. Love your videos.. thank you..

[@amystamey4001]

Great workout. Great length. The 10 minute ones are too short and it is hard to make myself do a second one. 20 minute videos are ideal. Thank you. PS Looking at your body gives me inspiration. You are so fit!

[@user-vy2zr3ff6w]

I LOVE this workout. Just tried a video by someone else and it just doesn't seem to work for me. I appreciate that you always have a warm up stretch and a cooldown stretch. And the rests between exercises. It doesn't feel like we are rushing through.

[@rachelsfitpilates]

You’re welcome! I haven’t always done the warmup and stretch but have started to in the past few months and ppl really enjoy it 😊 glad u do too!

[@VioletteVITA]

Day 12 complete with bottles of water instead of dumbbells 🎉 Thank you so much ❤

[@rachelsfitpilates]

Great job!

[@emanuel-ms3ld]

Day 12 completed, i didn't have dumbells for this one so i filled a couple of 2L water bottles and used them instead, they at least weigh 5kg in total but as someone who's never used weights i guess a win is a win

[@rachelsfitpilates]

Yes absolutely!

[@PandoraEast]

Done! Going really slow but getting through

Hi Rachel!!! Im new to your channel. I seen some of your videos. Question i had 2 knee replacement in 2021 and then on 2023. Im scared to get on my knees. My Dr said yes i can get on my knees. I lost over 100 lbs and i want to tone my body. I love what i see on your channel you dont push hard your calm. If i cant do the knees down what can i do besides kneeling?

[@rachelsfitpilates]

I'm so glad you like my channel and congratulations on the weight loss that is incredible! you could get a cushioned pad for your knees from amazon or use a pillow to make it much gentler for your knees. something like this: a.co/d/bB1Lsod I'll have to think of some other ideas for not kneeling! Maybe I'll make a no kneeling workout :)

[@kgee1871]

Love your videos Rachel. I have just completed day 12 of the 28day weight loss pilates. I have wrist damage due to carpal tunnel. Is there a way I can do push ups effectively without having my palms flat on the floor or wall?
