Michela Pilates

Most people do lunges upright.

Try a forward hinge.

🔥 More glutes
🔥 More hamstrings
🔥 More core

Then add the jumps.

Keep the spine long.
Move the legs.

🎾 The ball doesn’t support you.
It exposes every loss of control.

Can you keep the ball in place?

⚠️ Warning: your lower abs will hate this.

Ball under the sacrum.
Instability +++
Deep core engagement +++
Burn level 🔥🔥🔥

Add a resistance band and pulse the ankles outward for an extra challenge. 😈

For the fearless: take the arms overhead and watch the shake begin.

Small movement. Big challenge.

One lunge.
One ball.
A thousand regrets. 🔥

Try the pulses.
Make the ball travel.
Be creative and wait for the burn 🔥
Tell me how your legs feel tomorrow. 😅

When a Pilates instructor gets bored…

Things escalate quickly. 😅

Try this combo and let me know if your body forgives me. 🔥

Superman + Magic Circle = 🔥

Strengthen your back, fire up your core, and challenge your control.

Small circle. Big results. 💪

✨ One Circle, Endless Possibilities! ✨

Using the Magic Circle to add support, challenge, and extra activation 🔥

✔️ Assisted push-ups with the circle under the chest for added support
✔️ Bear hold squeezes to fire up the inner thighs and core
✔️ Side-opening presses to build stability and control

Small prop, big results. Give these moves a try and feel the burn! 💪⭕️

One little yoga block, two very different challenges 😏🔥

✨ A little extra support for balance during the single-leg hinge, so you can focus on control, alignment and strength.

✨ A little extra challenge during the push-ups, where the asymmetrical setup fires up the core and shoulder stability.

Same prop. Different purpose. Big impact 💪⚖️
