Join me for Day 1 for my Great Lock-In 2026 Pilates Reformer Workout Challenge.

Don't wait until the new year to commit to improving your fitness and wellness through Pilates. Join my Great Lock-In Pilates Reformer Workout Challenge and finish your year strong.

This workout challenge includes 3 months of my favorite Pilates reformer workouts, carefully curated to challenge you, and have you end the year feeling your strongest.

In our Day 1 workout, we'll complete a challenging but doable full body workout with no props in just 25 minutes. This workout is appropriate for all levels.

⭐️ How to do the challenge:
• Save/bookmark the challenge playlist
• Commit to completing up to 4 workouts per week
• Choose one workout per session (in playlist order, or choose your own order)
• Aim to complete all workouts by the end of the year

FAQ:

1️⃣ What if I don't have one of the props you are using in a workout?

• Either follow the prompts to modify without the prop, or if preferred, repeat a past workout or skip to the next one in the playlist.

2️⃣ I can't commit to 4 workouts per week. What should I do?

• No problem. Instead, decide on a target number of workouts per week, and commit to completing this number of sessions each week. You can select which workouts to do versus skip, or continue the remaining sessions after the start of the new year.

3️⃣ I want to do more than 4 workouts each week. What should I do?

• Great -- you can either repeat a workout that you've already completed within the challenge playlist, or select another workout in the program. Alternatively, you can select another workout from my catalog. Please remember to plan ample rest in between workouts for optimal recovery.

4️⃣ I have trouble committing/remembering to do my workouts. How can I help myself be accountable and complete this challenge?

• This is a concern that many people face. Individual obstacles and solutions vary, but for those who struggle to keep commitments to working out, it can be helpful to schedule your workout session on your calendar as you would a doctor's appointment. For those who struggle with motivation, committing to doing at least 5 minutes of each session can grant enough motivation to continuing through the rest of the workout in many cases.
