Can you see visible Pilates results with only 1 class a week? And how do you track progress?
Hi everyone! 😊 I recently started getting into Pilates and I’m wondering how you guys monitor your progress.
For those who do Pilates regularly:
- What’s the best way to track progress aside from weight/measurements?
- Do you take progress photos, track flexibility/strength, note how exercises feel, etc.?
- And realistically, can you see visible changes from Pilates if you only do it once a week?
I currently do strength training during the week, so Pilates would more likely be an additional once-a-week thing for me. I actually feel like Pilates could also help improve my strength training because of all the cues the instructor gives during class things like proper alignment, bracing the core, breathing, controlling the movement, and being more aware of which muscles I’m actually using.
I’m mainly interested in improving my core strength, posture, mobility, and getting a more toned/“long and lean” look.
Would love to hear from anyone who started with just 1x/week and what kind of changes you noticed and how long it took! 💗
