Movement Myth #6

“You have to feel sore the next day for it to work.” 😖❌

Nope! Soreness isn’t the sign of a good session — it’s just a sign that you’ve challenged your muscles in a new way. While a bit of ache can feel satisfying (especially after trying something different), it’s not the goal 💡

Consistent, controlled movement that builds strength and mobility without leaving you stiff for days is actually far more sustainable 💪🌿

With Pilates, the focus is on smart, effective movement. You’ll often feel more connected, upright or mobile afterwards — not like you’ve been hit by a bus 🚍🙃

And if you do feel a little DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness), it’s usually when you’ve worked muscles you didn’t even know you had — like the glutes and inner thighs 🍑🔥

So next time you move and don’t feel sore after, don’t question whether it worked — smile and know your body’s getting stronger without the struggle 😊💫
