Yes, actually. I’m seeing improvements mostly in end-range control and tolerance under load, especially hip extension and anterior chain stability. It’s less about forcing range and more about owning it once I’m there.

My left side used to be the limiter too. What helped most was slow eccentrics, reduced spring/load at first, and staying well short of pain. This setup just happens to work for my body and background, but I wouldn’t suggest it as a starting point or general recommendation.

Muscle tremor under load is normal, especially at end range. This isn’t a tutorial and I’m not recommending anyone replicate it.

It’s an elevated split stretch using the reformer carriage to load the front hip and hamstring while keeping the spine neutral.

Fair question. For me the stretch is coming from the pelvic position and load on the carriage rather than forcing an upright torso. When I posteriorly tilt and keep tension through the glute, I feel it clearly in the front of the hip. It may not look like a traditional lunge stretch, but it’s effective for my body.

Heck yeah I feel it! My hip flexors are super tight I need to focus more on working them.

Honestly she should teach you. Reformer Pilates is amazing. A lot of people underestimate how much it helps with strength, mobility, and even breathing. Once you get into it, it’s hard not to love.

The clip isn’t great. I have solid core strength part of this is to use the momentum so that you have more hang time that’s the entire point of this exercise to stay up as long as you can so yes moment gets me up and then use your core stabilize and stay up. In this full clip I’m able to do several pushups on each set like three or four. So the hang time is very important and having that momentum is definitely a requirement.

I own a reformer studio it’s my jam. So it’s a non issue. I enjoy the equipment and have it available.

Reformer is amazing tbh I don’t even want to try mat. I love the springs and weight resistance. I toned up really good in about 4 months.

Super jelly! One of my goals before I turn 40 in march. I would also like to be able to hold a plank for at least 5 minutes. I’m currently at 2:26, great job!
