I did Pilates today using the equipment😍 I really liked it
I gained a knowledge base in the field of exercise therapy and Pilates. But I’ve never worked on equipment. And it’s so interesting to feel your body and consciously control your movements.
BUT, during exercises there should be complete comfort. And unfortunately, I feel discomfort and pain in many exercises. And I was so surprised, I often forget about my pain in the body. I look for the positive and say that everything is fine 🤌🏼✊🏻
But that's not true. I felt so sad that there was almost no healthy space in my body. During training, I said “I have this here...” “but here it’s like this” “here I can’t” “and here it hurts”, and I just paid attention to it. I never shared about my injuries and pain.
But today I was so surprised myself. I'll share.
