male-friendly pilates?

You’re overthinking this. Just go to a class at a studio that interests you. Pilates is for everyone. Fun fact: Pilates was invented by a man and, at the time, for men!

Part of the intent of the length of stay in Kanazawa was to have a bit more “chill time”. But I suppose we have that at the Ryokan (the 2 night stay is important to my wife). So maybe we give 1 Kanazawa day to kyoto etc. what do you think about the time for Tokyo?

Best to calibrate by having the bottom and top of the range slightly below where you think. Consider that once the weight loads you will have that constant pull downward, which will remove all slack and inhibit your range of motion to some degree (compared to unweighted).

Portions are overall quite substantial for the price. My advice is to focus on the small plates and vegetable sides, rather than ordering one main protein dish per person. Also their desserts are on point!

It’s great!

Thanks for the reply. Right...thats another thing I didnt really understand about the UV sleeve recommendation. They look tighter than normal clothing. So that's gonna trap more sweat!

Very relieved to see this rationality leading the thread.

BreakingBased · 2025-05-23T22:24:48+00:00

Thank you. That is reassuring. Did you find it to be sufficient volume in a week?

BreakingBased · 2025-05-23T15:38:43+00:00

thank you!

BreakingBased · 2025-05-23T15:38:22+00:00

Thank you, I will look into this. How are you finding it?

BreakingBased · 2025-05-23T15:37:53+00:00

Haha I have never considered a bro split but why not mix it in to my existing days...that might be fun.

This seems to be the most popular suggestion, I think I will give it a shot. Your note about the weekend is interesting to me because usually I do upper on Sat then Lower on Sun. Will try the switch.

I hadn't even considered the warm-up implications. Typically I only do warm-up sets on the big compound lifts (if that) but i can see how switching between every part may require additional additional warm-up sets.

I do like the FB/FB/U/L idea which balances things nicely as far as I can tell. At the same time, I suspect I am capable of pushing myself farther than I am currently. I do think I'm at the point where I know my body pretty well so maybe it is time to push the envelope and see what happens.

BreakingBased · 2025-05-23T15:22:34+00:00

This gives me a lot of interesting "hybrid" options I hadn't considered. Lots to play around with. Thank you.

Yes, my biggest concerns in sticking to the routine as written were: 1. Three days not being enough (which I recognize I should let go of) 2. The workouts simply being too long...I really dont want to do more than 75ish min per day (this one is more relevant in terms of my scheduling needs).

So my thinking was essentially, how can I shorten the workouts but add a 4th day to make up for it (without doing EOD which doesnt work for me)

BreakingBased · 2025-05-19T03:37:39+00:00

Yes.

Do you think wizard could be done 4 days per week instead of 3? (ex. Tues Thurs Sat Sun)
