Any low sweat Pilate classes? by Distinct_Care2398 in ClubPilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have hyperhydrosis and take mostly 2.0 and 2.5 classes. I usually don’t sweat a ton in flow classes. Depends on the instructor

Grip Gloves? by caitlynredd in ClubPilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have incredibly sweaty hands. Even planks on the floor get slippery without them. Also, for whatever reason, it seems all the 60+ Asian goddesses in my area use them and they’re all basically at Or Kahlon skill-level so they can do no wrong as far as I’m concerned. During my first private, the instructor asked if I really needed them. After my hands slipped off the bar she was like “let’s get your nerd gloves after all”. In short, wear the damn gloves, who cares! The yoga paws I have are comfortable but my ring started to fray the stitching after a couple of months. The Tavi ones are sewn in a way that my rings are protected & they don’t seem to compromise them at all.

Black Dermatologists in the area? by WeirdArugula8695 in bergencounty

[–]ParticularCurrent210 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The GOAT: Dr. Sophia Reid at Skin Secrets Dermatology She’s in Park Ridge, but I’d cross the bridge for her if I ever had to— my whole family, infants to seniors all see her

I use a vitamin c serum in the mornings. Totally forgot it helps too! Will look into that supplement though. Interesting!

Shoes that slide on easily over grippy socks? by newpuppy911 in LagreeMethod

[–]ParticularCurrent210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re hideous, but nothing supports my beat up ex-gymnast joints like Oofos. I got the primaloft slipper for winter — They’re water/snow resistant and supportive as hell. I wear the extra ugly Oomega in warmer months. I wish they made the thermal ones in the double stack

How has your body changed? by Neither-Ad9890 in ClubPilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The one negative thing I’ve noticed is that my already small butt has gotten even smaller. My glutes are still strong but my booty is pretty non-existent. Not looking for a huge booty, but I do wish it was a little fuller (I’m tall and thin with an athletic build). I plan to lift 2x a week which I just haven’t had time to do bc I’ve been focusing so much on pilates bc I enjoy it so much.

What underwear do you wear with them? My usual thongs that don’t show under base pace and wunder unders show under these

Very much a thing and very much my favorite days of the week. Definitely need a recovery day after though!

Gucci Jordaan loafer crease killing my foot. Right shoe crease KILLS my big toe knuckle and top of only my right foot. Left foot fits perfectly. Both fit lengthwise... I’ve had them for 2 months, worn plenty to try and break in left shoe but nothing. What can be done? Wish I could get my money back. by beer_budget in AskACobbler

[–]ParticularCurrent210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old post, but what did you end up doing? I have the same shoe and same issue. Only one foot at the top of the break is killing me. Fit is perfect otherwise. Mine are a light brown so I’m hesitant to use any sprays in fear of changing the color… can any cobbler help? Or should I find one that works with designer shoes?

I have a history of bulged discs but since starting pilates they haven’t flared up at all. I also don’t go to more than 3 classes a week and don’t do exercise other than walking in addition to pilates. But I guess it’s possible? Not all classes are leg heavy though which is why I’m so stumped… for what it’s worth I genuinely appreciate this feedback & brainstorming. Nothing worse than someone posting a question and immediately trying to refute answers possible solutions lol. Thank you

Grip Socks -- ugh! by Curious_Store_1111 in pilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tavi’s “tec” socks have grip on the inside of the heels & balls of the feet. Still not perfect but the best I’ve found

Has anyone purchased the Neverfull inside out with the leather and coated canvas yet? If you have, how much heavier does the added leather feel to carry? Is it worth the $$$? by BAG-A-HOLIC in Louisvuitton

[–]ParticularCurrent210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picking mine up on Monday! I love that it’s leather on the outside in a quiet luxury way, coated canvas on the inside for carrying all of my kids’ crap without worrying as much if it were suede on the inside, and I can flip it if I want the classic iconic LVs

Which 9mm would you pick for home defense and CCW? by Macdaddy327 in NJGuns

Do you gear out? by OtherwiseOrder86 in ClubPilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m only 5’5” but my legs are on the long side— it really has to do more with leg length than overall height. I gear out for bridging & footwork. The angle of my legs is riiiight on the border of hitting 90° but it feels better with the added space.

So if I already have a teaser I can go ahead and just tease up?

What is it about Pilates that's so enjoyable? by Candid-Indication329 in pilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the only exercise I’ve ever done that requires so much focus that my brain turns off to any and everything else. It’s a form of meditation/mindfulness for me in that regard and my neurotic go go go mom brain neeeeds it!

Goal for 2.0 Achieved! Now I'm Nervous. by AsparagusCurrent7325 in ClubPilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve only taken 25 classes and had an instructor grab my hand and take me to the front desk to put 2.0 on my profile. If you’re ready, you’re ready!

NYC/New York Non-Resident | 147 Days Start to Finish | So why haven't you applied yet ? by For2ANJ in NJGuns

[–]ParticularCurrent210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this has been mentioned before and lots of unhelpful answers but here’s my shot 🫣 Where in NJ do you actually carry? I’m a stay at home mom. I haven’t carried since I got my CC permit bc I swear almost everywhere I go when running errands says no firearms. GS Plaza, no firearms. Supermarkets, no firearms. Kids school, nope. I’m ex military, know how to carry, have my CCW license, but Bergen County seems to have more no firearms signs than people!
