[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh, I really hate that the women in this article are shaming the men for….BREATHING? I take reformer classes, and sometimes, especially in the level 1 classes, I am the only one audibly exhaling, even though that is literally the Pilates breath and you cannot properly engage your transverse abdominis without it. To me the people posting their fits while saying “women keep it classy” by only breathing silently are the fakers and I don’t like the vibe they bring to class.

Long tangent aside, at my studio it’s usually all-women, with the occasional middle-aged or senior guy. There’s also been the occasional professional male athlete for one of the Washington sports teams, some of them live in our area. Nobody leers and it’s always been fine.

I will say that one time at the solidcore near me, there was a super, super geriatric man who absolutely could not keep up with anything (I guess he thought it would be easy because it was “for women”?), and he had bare feet and didn’t wipe down his sweaty machine AT ALL before leaving. It was gross and annoying.[/quote]

How loud are you breathing? [/quote]
