Movement Myth #2

“If it doesn’t make you sweat, it doesn’t count.” 💦❌

You don’t have to finish red-faced and dripping to know you’ve done something good for your body. Gentle, steady movement — like Pilates — can be just as effective, especially for building strength, improving mobility, and supporting long-term health 🧘‍♀️✨

Some of the best sessions are the ones where you feel more open, more mobile, or simply less stiff than when you started. Just because you didn’t break a sweat doesn’t mean it didn’t make a difference ✅

So next time you’re moving, try focusing on how your body feels rather than how sweaty you get. Take the cat/cow exercise — gentle, flowing movement that brings mobility to your spine and helps release tension without raising your heart rate 🐈‍⬛🐄

It’s a brilliant reminder that slow and steady really does have its place.

Give it a go and notice how much better your back feels after just a few rounds 🌿
