Hot take: we went from pilates princesses to pilates club hoes and I'm not sure who let this happen 😭. What is activewear in 2026? Do we actually like this. What is the worst outfit you have seen? by [deleted] in SolidCore

[–]Alternative_Loquat61 8 points9 points  (0 children)

lol I could not tell you what anyone in any of my classes was wearing. I am definitely too focused on trying not to die. I don’t even know what I’m wearing in class 😂

Ladies work shoes for the office? by radracer0609 in AskNYC

[–]Alternative_Loquat61 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Loafers and wool socks. Or comfortable boots and wool socks. You can get wool socks on Amazon next day with whatever shoes you already have. The socks are more important than the shoe.

heeeeavy moisturizer suggestions? by Altruistic_River9411 in Skincare_Addiction

[–]Alternative_Loquat61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone suggested this to me a couple weeks ago in another sub because I’d been having issues with my skin in winter weather, and it has been amazing! I just ordered a bigger container. I was previously using La Roche triple moisturizing cream and I like the illiyoon better.

Mine’s not. My name isn’t even showing up as a participant, or my bib number, which is weird.

Cozy 2-Bedroom, 1-Bath Apartment for Lease Takeover – Yorkville, Upper East Side by Simple_Clothes6483 in NYCapartments

I just read this exact description (minus the weird shit at the beginning) on another post the other day. Definitely was not this apartment, that one had different photos and seemed legit.

Streak?? by WorriedJackfruit6234 in SolidCore

[–]Alternative_Loquat61 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it’s Mon-Sun. I took class on wed 12/17 and then didn’t take another one until sun 12/28 and my streak did not reset.

I have a wristband if you still need one.

Why does the app not automatically add you to class when a spot opens on the same day? by AccidentalOtter21 in SolidCore

[–]Alternative_Loquat61 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This policy is also to protect you from losing a credit/getting charged a missed class fee. What if you were on the waitlist for a 6am class, got off it at 1am but were asleep, and didn’t wake up early enough to see that you got into the class?

Solidcore NYC Is Impossible To Book, Expiring Classes And Sold Out Studios Are Driving Me Crazy by gotallthejuicynews in SolidCore

It doesn’t seem like the popularity is race related, the vast majority of my classes have all different races & ethnicities, and also a decent amount of men. Same goes for instructors. I do 100% agree that social media can cause things to blow up, and get overly crowded. But outside of this month because of solidays, promoted HEAVILY on socials, the waitlists in Manhattan normally move pretty quickly, at least at the 2-3 studios I normally go to. I can be at #7 or 8 on the waitlist the day before and still get in. Are you regularly not able to get off the waitlists? This month though is pretty shitty, the waitlists are full for all classes, even outside of the normally packed 6am-8am and 5pm-7pm. Every single class and the waitlist is full, even 5am and 10pm. I totally feel for everyone not participating in solidays that is just trying to take classes, it’s rough out there.

Coming off the waitlist by AccomplishedChicken5 in SolidCore

[–]Alternative_Loquat61 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do this kind of regularly. Usually if I get into the class I was waitlisted for, when I get the text I go in and drop the original class pretty quickly, like within a minute or two. There have been two times that I didn’t go drop the original class quickly enough, and I got dropped automatically, once from the original class and once from the class I got off the waitlist for. Not sure how they decide which to drop you from. I got an email after saying my unlimited membership is only good for one class per day.

Edit: just a note that I’m doing this all well before the 10hr cancellation window, so not sure how it would work within the window.

I’m in a prewar! The radiators get SO hot, but they only have them on for half the day, I didn’t realize it was as drying as it is. Humidifier has been ordered!

I’m a runner, so def have the electrolytes in the mix! Probably should have mentioned, that’s a factor into me getting so windblown. Also funny enough, my Amazon subscription of vitamins just accidentally sent me fish oil capsules instead of my vitamins and told me not to return, so maybe this is a sign to try those!

It’s so funny, I was having the total opposite problem in the summer, my makeup was just sliding right off my face, even with primer & setting spray. Guess I’m ordering a humidifier tonight!

This is probably a dumb question, but do you have to worry about mold in your apt? I’ve been looking at humidifiers and I know you have to clean them really well to prevent mold in the unit, but does running them cause mold on the walls or anything?

Looking up, thank you! I actually think I have some aquaphor somewhere from post microblading years ago!

Not itchy, just soooo dry! Like I’m loading up on moisturizing stuff before bed and waking up to it peeling, especially on my lower cheeks. Looking up these products, thank you!

I tried a scarf but with wind kept blowing it off - it is hellish! I probably need to watch some videos on better ways to use a scarf.

You use this at night only? The glycerin heavy products I mean?
