99: My Real Thoughts on the Pilates Trend + What the Science Says

Think Pilates is the secret to a long, lean, sculpted body? Let’s talk about it. In this solo episode, I’m breaking down the Pilates hype, and telling you what’s actually happening behind those viral “Pilates body” transformations. We’re diving into what Pilates is great for, where it falls short, and why it might not be doing what you think it’s doing. No hate, no fluff, just a real conversation about how to train smarter, not trendier. I’m also unpacking the difference between movement that feels good and movement that changes your body, how genetics and restrictive eating sneak into the Pilates glow-up, what “lifting heavy” really means, and why strength training is the foundation that actually gets you results. Whether you’re a Pilates girlie, a gym baddie, or somewhere in between, this episode will help you get clear on what your body really needs, and how to stop chasing aesthetics that aren’t rooted in reality.
