Whatever. How I would, I would tend to not load it up. I would tend to not load it up cause you want to have length to get into the end of the reformer by those uprights for some of that sustained movement. So I'm, I'm making it light for you girls. You're both of you have your bars. Yeah. This part needs to go down. Yeah. Drop your bar a little low. Lower. Alright. So ladies, let's get on with your hips down. Good. Excellent.

Now you're going to be forward. I like to be a little more forward. Not too far. Cause the more you have your body, your shoulders over that box, the more you have to hold up. All right, so to intensify, you can actually, um, move back if you'd like, but don't worry about it. So we're doing arm jumping. I'm looking for prone, so to keep the head down and I want you to be like superman. Connect your legs back there and lift them slightly. Yeah. Alright, you ready? We're going for four jumps.

My cue at home is called 51 so 50% of your rolling is back? Correct. Okay. 50% of the movement is back. 51 is the hardest cause that's when you have to hold that and curl over. So when I call 51 pull those abdominals and Co and call and curl over. K , that's my 51 okay, that's not a drink. Sit Up nice and tall. Roll back.

Now you're going to soften your support knee and your arms are going to be somewhere in the center here, okay? Soften. Good.

And you're not going to be arching up. You're pitched forward. Abdominals really scooped up. All right, so we're going to hip extend and let's go. Go out and in and two, and in three and in right arm to the side, one and in and two, and in three. And in switch arms. Here we go, one and in and two, and in three and in and arm toward the front. Overhead go and two and go three and go and four both arms down.

Change your feet, external rotation with the right leg down. And then we're going to cross the Leftwich leg behind. Grabbing the top of that shoulder rest, squaring the hips, girls and lifting the thigh. Sort of like attitude position if you were a dancer, but if you weren't, that's what it is. Okay? Soften your knee the best you can and kick it out. One and two.

Now I'm trying to access this area right of the glutes out and and good girls out and in. Now, right arm out to the side. Go out and out. Gentlemen, you will want to load this out in switch arms. Go again, out in, out, get some power, glutes, good arm overhead. Go four palm facing me. Reach very good reach. Give it a rest.

Now we changed the feet again. Down goes the left leg and external rotation. Up goes the left leg on the opposite shoulder rest. Be sure you go to the shoulder, rest squaring the ASI s toward the foot bar. Donald's held in your pitch. Just slightly push back slightly.

So the your arm strain and go one. Go. Now really use your stomach like a wall. Push away. This is what I call grab and go. You grab your stomach and you go grab and go right arm out for four one and go two. Good, good, good. Don't move anything. Just use your gluteal switch.

Hands One and go to keep moving out and in arm in front one. Stay long to do you feel it ladies, we should have loaded up and give it a rest. Switch sides. So it's getting the fast. That's where the thigh meets the, you know [inaudible]. Alright. It can also be called the blegh with the meats. The leg, that's the blade. I have a blegh and a fass. Alright, soften. I know. Hey, this is me. I'm so non-classical me. Look at me.

Ready, set, push out. And in good. Who would wear octopus pants? Really Octopus and go last to out and in and out. Arm out blend and go. Push back to go tighten the stomach. I'm not seeing the grab and go switch arms. Girls out.

Think about lengthening good. Keep that tension in your arm. Change your arms. Fingers four and five are reaching in order to get the scapula and out switch feet. Put the arms down, put the left foot down, turned out crossover. Trying to get that corner of your button. Now that they always say corner, not real. You don't want to think of your button as square. He wants to be round, but I don't know how you, you know, maybe put in an old clock format or something. I don't know. Turn your foot out.

Good. Are you good? I know she didn't think it was going to be like this. All right. Push one and go two and we're almost done. Go keep it going. Arm Out and go to and stay. Square three.

Fight fights, switch arms. Go. Keep the insurance up to and go. Think about lengthening that arm right here. Lengthen. One and two. Go to six, three just because I like it. Four and five. Last one.

And switch feet again. Oh my gosh, this isn't going to end. This one goes down. Turn out again. Externally. Rotate arms here. Soften. Push your hips back. Grab and go. Go One and go two. Yep. It's got to find it. Three n go four. Arm Out. Go One.

And good to keep moving. Three. Watch that shoulder switch. Arms lengthen. Fingertips reach too. And feel it. Three. You want me to hold it here forever for let's go to go. Three. Go for two more.

Out and in and out. Give it arrest. All right, now let's not stretch that area back here. Flat back. Elephant, red, yellow. You don't have a yellow. So d, what do you usually do on green? Green. Perfect. Alright, your heels are flat up against this. So stay down. Elephant. Okay. Flat back. Alright. Alright, here we go. We're going to try and keep our next long and keep your ears within the framework of the upper arm. We're going back and forth. Just go back, back, back times four. Fourth, fourth, fourth. Good back. Keep the resistance through the heels of the hands, good back, back, back, forth, forth, forth. Go back, back, back, forth, forth, forth.

Walk both heels to the left shoulder rest and then to arms are going to the right side of the bar. Continue burying times for one. Laugh those hands to go again. Out three, making that rib. Go toward your thigh four and in, walk to the other side and again out, out in, in, one, out, out, out, in, into perfect, out, out, out in, in three. Last one out. And for now, both heels are going to be butted up against the shoulder, uh, each respective shoulder rest.

So right-hand now is going to try and grab either the ankle or the shoulder rest. Now as you go out, look underneath your left armpit and effect a twist. Go twist. As you push and come back. Left heel of your hand is important. Go, go, go and come back. Do it again. Push, push, push and come back. Really try and get this round. Taishan and, and one more. We're on Tay Road and switch sides folks. Alrighty. We're narrowing it and here we go. Out, out and in, rotate.

And in those purple shirts have taken on a new color called eggplant and out, out, out and in and onto your knees. Everybody. Knees, knees, knees and relax. Alright, sit in onto your heels and relaxed. I would like you to interlace your fingers. Push the heels of your hands forward, lift up, put the palms of your hands behind the back of your neck. Look up to the ceiling and lean back. That should feel good on your back. Actually, it should feel very good and relax.

Thank you very much, you ladies. We had a great time.

I enjoyed the class very much! Wanted to ask if there is a place the class is written down in pilates anytime? And if I can see the class 1.5* faster,

Moran ~ Thank you for your forum post. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed this class! We don't have the class sequences written down anywhere, but we do have a few classes with Closed Captioning so you can see what they are saying during the class. You can find these classes here. We also don't have a feature that allows you to speed up a class. For now our video player just allows you to fast forward if you need to skip a section.
Glad you liked the challenge!

Question: Do you start out with no springs at all (for the footwork sitting on the footbar)?
