[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Happy to help. It's hard as we get older juggling everything. Human nature we want quick results. But I realize that doing a daily practice,  there may not be much difference from say week 3 to week 6. But the changes are subtle and compound over weeks and months.  I also sometimes feel that pilates is like physical therapy. I think of exercise as a slow sculpture with small changes that grow upon themselves. Also meant to say that bc my core is stronger,  my lower back pain that I'd get periodically from sitting too much is significantly improved to gone! I'd say that result took 3 to 4 months for me to suddenly realize.  I just think of all the improvements to my wellness and flexibility strength underneath that is not very visual but is just as important. Also when I first started doing lots of lunges I was always a little wobbly. But after a few months I realized that I don't wobble anymore. This stability translates to better strength and maybe one day it will reduce my risk of a bad fall once I'm a really old lady. My only regret is that I didn't start 20 years ago. But that's OK bc I was busy chasing my children around then. [/quote]
