This Pilates Sculpt class uses hand weights to add resistance and challenge you. We start standing before moving down to the mat. be prepared to take your muscles to fatigue and enjoy the burn.
I am using 3 pounds (1.5 kg) in this class. You can go up or down in weight depending on your current strength. You can also omit the weight entirely, and I promise you will still get a great workout. Pick a weight that is challenging but allows you to maintain good form. You can always drop or pick up the weights depending on the movement. This is high-rep, low-weight work. You might be surprised to see how heavy 2-3 pound hand weights can start to feel.
