Why traditional Pilates (Mat or Reformer) Isn’t Enough Strength Training for Women 35+ 📕 Read my latest blog post (via the link in my bio) for more information and DM me if you're interested in Wellness Coaching. Pilates is amazing for core strength, mobility, posture, and body awareness, and so much more —but as we age, our bodies need more. After 35, women begin to lose muscle mass and bone density. To combat this and support metabolism, hormonal balance, and longevity, we need progressive resistance training that goes beyond bodyweight and springs. Here’s why strength training is essential: Builds and preserves lean muscle Supports healthy bones + joint stability Boosts metabolism + fat loss Balances hormones Increases functional strength for everyday life Add strength training to your routine 2–3x a week alongside Pilates for a balanced, pro-aging approach that supports your body through every decade. Your future self will thank you.
