Gymfreak 2 Feb 11:18am, 2 Feb 2024 9,746 posts	0 Gymfreak Hello I just wanted to pop here in case anyone is still doing some Pilates. I have a herniated disc that's on and off a total PITA so have been doing lots of Pilates of a lot of months. I've tried various face to face classes and been very bored and thought what the hell is the point of this it feels like it's doing nothing. Then I found Pilates for Runners. It's a subscription app but it's much cheaper than you'd pay for classes anyway and it really is so damn good. A runner Liz does the sessions, you can do them on demand or live and I just wanted to spread the word a bit for anyone who isn't aware of it because it's been a game changer for me. My attention span is small I like the fact there are 10 min, 20 min, 30 min, 60 min classes/short sessions depending on what time you have available. It's just so running specific, even feet strengthening! This is the website if anyone wants to try, I think you can get a week for free with this. pilatesforrunners.co.uk Just trying to spread some love on a Friday for something I've found so helpful
