How Many Calories Does Reformer Pilates Burn?
Sometimes we get asked,
"How many calories does Reformer Pilates burn?"
And honestly...
I think it's the wrong question.
Not because calories don't matter.
But because calories are only one tiny piece of a much bigger picture.
You Don’t Have to Earn Rest to Get Results
Growing up Hollywood taught us that rest is a reward. We had to completely destroy our bodies (and our brains) in order to earn rest. That if you skipped a workout, you have to "make up for it." That if you took two days off, you should double your workouts. Or worse..that you needed to “earn” food.
The truth?
Your body doesn't only get stronger during the workout. It also gets stronger when it recovers from it. Training creates the stimulus. Recovery is where the adaptation happens.
If you're constantly pushing without giving your body time to rebuild, you may be limiting your progress.
