Haha when you said “ok 30 sec rest then we will do this again” I audibly exclaimed “Again?!?! Holy Sh*t Rachel! “😂😅 I used 5 and 10lb weights for this as I work on leveling myself up so I did that part to myself haha such a good and challenging workout! I loved it and feel proud for finishing it!
Awesome! By far to me my toughest of your routines. I love the variety of your videos. It was nice to move away from the wall today. Additionally, I saw your video to answer your critics about whether your videos count as pilates or not. Clearly doing some movement is better than no movement, at my age and fitness level this routine was more than enough for me, also I believe that if you’re into physical fitness you should want people to do/ try anything other than sit there and try and affirm your poor health. Your critics Rachel are probably pissed at you for your number of followers/ viewership. Don’t stop what you are doing!
I've never been so happy to be done with a workout in my life! Day 10 is done! My biceps, triceps and quads are killing me! What in the world made you say go lower? LOL😅 See you tomorrow.
Just finished day 10 i must say i have never sweated this much since i started. Woooh i am tired , sore on arms and thighs but i feel stronger and better
So proud of myself for completing this today !! Its was difficult but i gave it my all very good stretch on my inner thighs I’ll be feeling that in the morning
I thought I had done all your workouts....but this was new to me! So great! Really got my heart rate up! I could see myself doing this again with dumbbells in the future!
Wow this one sure did pack a punch for such a short workout! I found the second time through I started really squeezing through the glutes and thighs for the squats and that helped a lot!
Day 10. End of the week and I was tired, but 19 minutes was doable, so I did it. Looking forward to pushing through for the full 28 days. I swear I'm already seeing definition in my abs (may be wishful thinking). Thank you!
Day 10 55 yo heavy lady working her way through 🥵 happy to be sweating as we are in -25 below zero in Central IL...cannot wait to get stronger and do the beginner again 💪 ❤
Great workout! There’s one set @15:40 that doesn’t have the count down timer. I love the timer; it helps to push me to finish when I’m getting tired during a set.
I've been consistent, I'm so proud of myself! Thank you so much for these awesome videos! For those who don't have wrist weights like me, try with one or two bottles of water. Hope that helps! Keep going, everyone 😊
The first of your workouts that I couldn't keep up with 😅😅😅 I paused two times to rest for 5 min hahah But I can't wait to do the challenge again after I finish it this time, and see how much I improved when I get back here. Btw I don't know why but the video you said you linked on the screen did not show up for me 🤔 I'm watching on my phone, on the Chrome app. Can you please link future extra videos in the description as well? Thank you so much!
that's a great idea yes, I will work on adding extra videos in the description thank you! and I love that you are going to repeat the challenge, good for u! totally ok to take breaks if necessary
Ok so one: this was intense for me 😬 and 2: I realized I have been doing squats wrong my whole life - I think. When I squat down my chest comes forward and my rear goes outward (hoping that makes sense) so anyways, I saw your form and how straight you look so I tried to bring my lower back in to straighten out and WOW 10× more difficult lol - I really hope I'm doing it right now. DAY 10 ✔️
Yes it does make a difference if u lean forward too much! But yes these cardio ones are tough! Totally ok to just do a portion of it or rest more if u need to 😊
Hardest one yet😅. I had no idea how little I worked upper thighs until this video. I couldn't go as low or as long as I wanted to. I have low tolerance for the burn. I can hold it for maybe 10 seconds and then i have to stop.
Oh no! It’s always ok to stop or skip some exercises if need be. Go at your own pace.. it can be fun to see how u progress when u come back a month later if u repeat the challenge!
It depends what type of pilates you do! I mix mine with strength training so in my opinion u will see and feel a difference faster 🙂 most ppl feel a difference in about a month of consistent exercise.. noticing feeling stronger, less fatigued etc. if u are also looking for weight loss it will need to be combined with a calorie deficit
@@keririchard555I do 20-45 mins a day 4-5 days a week. I also eat balanced too though and walk and I’ve seen a big difference in my body but over about a year. It’s a lifestyle for me now
It was the toughest i was taking a longer rest than you and also i was not able to do last 4 exercises as i started feeling pain in my neck after the reachups 😢...also i drink alot of water in between is it ok..? My ryt side of neck is paining alot 😢😢...can i take rest for tomorrow ??? And start again from monday 🙁
Is it ok to drink water in bet exercise? And is it ok that I did not did the rest 4 exercises? I had one more question 😅are these exercises all helpful to reduce the size of your waist ?
Sorry to hear that! I would do this one next time u have a cardio pilates day: Quick & Intense Cardio Workout | All Standing NO JUMPING | Under 20 Min ua-cam.com/video/NML3aOhKCzM/v-deo.html
@@rachelsfitpilates thanks. Haven't had this much trouble with the previous workouts. Never had too pause in others. This one apparently targeted muscles too weak for my weight... And I don't think I have weak leg muscles in general. The low wide stance for an extended period of time was Just too much and I had to break it up into shorter periods to calm my burning legs
Hi I’ve been trying to keep up but I’m having difficulty finding each workout, I’m on day 10 of your Pilates 28 day challenge, but it just seems I’m doing the same ones over and over, at the bottom it says what day it is, but unfortunately you don’t announce it , there are so many challenges I’m so confused, and like I said I feel I keep doing the same workouts over and over
Sorry about that! The calendar is the best way to do it:rachelsfitpilates.myflodesk.com/28daypilateschallenge2024 Here is the full playlist in order: Beginner Pilates 28 Day Challenge for Weight Loss + Strength Goals ua-cam.com/play/PL6F8elYp4eOFCIMT4EzJbWX8llDIRqtyq.html
This one aaalllllmost made me quit. I felt bamboozled and frustrated by the title and time. It's more leg day than cardio. And sneaky sneaky to add a separate stretching video. I allotted the amount of time on the calendar - so I had to opt out of stretching. Boo! BUT - I'll be back! ;)
Haha oh no! I thought I mentioned cardio in the intro video but perhaps I didn’t. They are just once a week for the challenge. I do get comments from my subscribers saying if they see me in shoes they get scared 😂
Haha when you said “ok 30 sec rest then we will do this again” I audibly exclaimed “Again?!?! Holy Sh*t Rachel! “😂😅 I used 5 and 10lb weights for this as I work on leveling myself up so I did that part to myself haha such a good and challenging workout! I loved it and feel proud for finishing it!
Hahah love that!
lol saw this comment while I was during first set, scared me but helped me to finish out
Hahhaha i am always swearing at poor rachel 😂😂😂 this is why I cant do in person classes, I would get in trouble 😅
Arggh!! My legs!! I will be crawling around for the rest of the day, thank you! LOL

That was a rough one! Great job!🎊 🎉

Day 10 check! I did it without weights and it was hard, can't imagine how hard it would have been if I had the weights. Thank you for the video
You're so welcome!
Just finished day 10 i must say i have never sweated this much since i started. Woooh i am tired , sore on arms and thighs but i feel stronger and better
Day 10.2 done. That pulse and punch still gets me. Thank you.
Day 10 complete! this one was hard but enjoyed! did with dumbbells. thanks Rachel.
So proud of myself for completing this today !! Its was difficult but i gave it my all very good stretch on my inner thighs I’ll be feeling that in the morning
you've inspired me to want to want to teach Pilates to my students!! Love your easy movements.! :)
I love your weekly workouts! I need it to keep me on track! That workout was a leg burner!!
So glad!
The burn I felt during the workout was crazy! Loved it tho and felt great afterwards :)
Glad you liked it!! I was burning too haha
I thought I had done all your workouts....but this was new to me! So great! Really got my heart rate up! I could see myself doing this again with dumbbells in the future!
Yess! Love that!!
OMG that was a sweaty session! My arms and shoulders are weak so it was challenging for me even with light weights but I enjoyed this class, thank you
Definitely a challenge here! Your :"finish strong" got me through it. Thank you! ❤
You are so welcome!
Day 10 completed and feeling good- so glad I started. Really enjoying the variety of workouts - thank you.
You're so welcome!
Wow! Felt that today … surprising how quick you can lose your fitness after a couple of weeks off … need to stretch now 😊 thanks Rachel x
Wow this one sure did pack a punch for such a short workout! I found the second time through I started really squeezing through the glutes and thighs for the squats and that helped a lot!
Day 10 done

Haha totally get it!
Day 10 completed definitely feeling it in my knees😂
Haha have heard that a lot for this one!
Saw 20 minutes and thought oh good light workout. Boy was I wrong but in a good way 😂
Haha 😂 totally get it!
Hardest one yet😅. I had no idea how little I worked upper thighs until this video. I couldn't go as low or as long as I wanted to. I have low tolerance for the burn. I can hold it for maybe 10 seconds and then i have to stop.
Great job for getting through!
This was a hard one for me, I literally cried doing the last two but I finally made it
Oh no! It’s always ok to stop or skip some exercises if need be. Go at your own pace.. it can be fun to see how u progress when u come back a month later if u repeat the challenge!
Thank you. Getting my girlfriends to follow you and workout with you ❤

🌊🌊🌊
Day 10 was fierce 😂 On my way to stretch. Biggest question: from where do you buy your outfits? They’re so white & I adore them!
Haha thank u!! Alo yoga for the white pants. All of them are linked here: shopmy.us/rachelsfitpilates
girl u are killing me. see you tomorrow
Hi Rachel, love your workouts. What weight should the ankle weights be?
mine are 2lbs!
Added this to day 8 because I skipped yesterday. But I’m still soar from day 7. So could only do 1 round.
Totally ok! 😀
Phew!! My legs are nicely sore. Not too sore that I can’t function getting to the toilet 😂 but sore enough to let me know I’ve worked.
Hahah the perfect amount of soreness!!
Day 10 done ✅ I m sweating ….feeling good after workout 🏋️ any specific diet should we follow during the challenge?
I recommend trying the carbon app. They can give you professional guidance 😊
@@rachelsfitpilates Thnks
Day 10 ✔️
great job!
