  • Hey, guys. Cassey here, and welcome to our first episode on Livestrong Woman for Pilates

  • Bootcamp. I'm so, so, so excited to get started. We're gonna tone up your arms, your abs, your

  • butt, your legs -- everything. You're gonna be so sore tomorrow. Are you ready to get

  • started? I am. Let's go ahead and do this. Alright, so you guys wanna go ahead and lie

  • forward on your mat. Bring those hands right in front of you, tuck that chin into your

  • chest, and slowly roll down, with control, vertebrae by vertebrae. There we go, nice

  • and slow. Now, I want you to tuck that bellybutton into your spine. Really press that low back

  • into the mat the right here. And go ahead and grab that right knee. Bring the head,

  • neck and shoulders up into Pilates stance. Meaning, you're all the way lifted right here

  • with the upper body, bellybutton is pressed, okay. Now go ahead and lift up the other leg.

  • We're gonna start out with something very simple: We're gonna go into our Straight Leg

  • Single Leg Stretch, okay. So hit that music for me, and we're gonna go to the beat, and

  • we're gonna have a lot of fun. Inhale through your nose, exhale through the mouth. And here

  • we go: We're going to pull, pull, switch. And pull, pull, switch. There you go. Just

  • really simple right here, warming up that core. Good. And pull it towards that chest

  • twice. Switch. Good. Pull, pull -- a few more. Three more. And two, pull. Last one. And pull,

  • pull, switch. Hold right there. Now we're gonna take it up one more level. We're gonna

  • go into a Single Straight Leg Stretch. Go ahead and grab behind that ankle, knee, or

  • cap, and lift up that leg as long as you can. If you're feeling like you're not that flexible

  • right now, slight bend is totally okay. Alright, same thing, but this time we hit the hamstrings.

  • And you're going to pull, pull, switch. Switch. Pull, pull, there we go. Beautiful. How do

  • you feel? Oh, I love this. I feel like my abs are getting all warmed up. My hamstrings

  • are not so tight anymore. Pull, pull. Let me hear that breath. Good. Three more. And

  • two. And one more. And I want you to hold it right there. Inhale through your nose.

  • On the exhale, go ahead and bring both legs into a tabletop position. Hands forward. Now

  • let's go ahead and give that head a break -- especially if you're just starting, your

  • head can get really tired. But what you wanna do is really lift up, make sure the shoulders

  • are off the mat, but your eyes are on your knees. If you're gonna look up at the ceiling,

  • it's gonna hurt your neck. Alright, hands forward, right into the Hundred. Here we go:

  • We're going to inhale -- 2, 3, 4. Exhale -- 2, 3, 4. Inhale through the nose and exhale through

  • the mouth. Inhale -- 2. And, exhale. Good -- a couple more. And exhale -- 2, 3, 4. Lifting

  • those legs up towards the ceiling or the sky if you're outside. Keep that breath. Keep

  • pumping. I want you to feel air fanning your butt right here. If you're not feeling that

  • air, you are not fanning fast enough. Press those heels together, toes in a nice "V" shape.

  • How do your abs feel? I'm definitely feeling this right now. Good. Eyes forward. If your

  • head is tired, though, feel free to bring it down onto the mat. Two more breaths, let's

  • go. Inhale -- 2, 3, 4. Exhale. One more. Inhale -- 2, 3, 4. And exhale -- 2, 3. Bring those

  • legs down to a 45 -- can you hold it right there? Alright, I'm only gonna give you a

  • couple to do here, because these are challenging. Let's go. Inhale -- 2, 3, 4. Exhale -- 2,

  • 3, 4. One more, you got this. And exhale -- 2, 3, 4. Bring those knees in and that head down.

  • Oh, my abs -- they feel so good. Alright, I'm going to go into a Double Leg Stretch.

  • Lift up into that Pilates stance, hands right by your ears, I want you to reach your limbs

  • as far as you can. Press, hold it right there. And circle it in as if you were in a bath

  • of oil. And reach for two. Bring it in for two. Really tucking your head into that navel

  • as you reach in. Reach -- ugh, my abs are dying. They feel so good. You're gonna give

  • me three. Come on, long fingers, long toes -- 2. And last one. I need you to reach and

  • hold. Hold it right there -- give me 5, 4, and 3, 2, 1. Bring it in and down. Oh, that

  • was so good. I'm gonna continue to kill your abs, and then we'll get into other parts of

  • your body, okay. Give me a classic Double Leg Lift. Both hands behind your tailbone

  • right here. Relax your shoulders into the mat. Tuck that bellybutton in, tailbone into

  • your back right there. Go ahead and lower those legs as low as you can. Nice and slow,

  • and reach -- good. Now, if you're a beginner, keep it bent, don't go so low. Nice work.

  • Let's go down all the way. And exhale, lift. Make sure that low back is pressed into your

  • mat. Very good. And lift. And down, go a little quicker. Here we go. Up for two and down for

  • two. Exhale, lift. And lower. How about two more? Let's go up and down. Last one, bring

  • it up. I want you to hold it right there. Let's bring those legs out and in. Whew, talk

  • about killing those lower abs, right. It's getting rid of that lower belly pooch. Three

  • more, let's go -- 3 and 2. One more -- 1. Bring those knees into the chest and give

  • them a big hug. Good job. Rock the knees side to side. Inhale through your nose. Exhale.

  • Bring those hands long behind you into the Pilates Roll Up. Inhale through your nose.

  • On the exhale, peel your back off the mat. And hands all the way towards the sky. Tuck

  • that chin in and slowly roll down, with control, as slow as you can, good. Hands long, inhale.

  • Exhale, reach. Really lengthening that spine, pretend there's a crown right on top of your

  • head, and you don't want to drop it once your up here. Then round out that back, slowly,

  • with control. Do you know how many crunches equals one Roll Up? Just give me a guess.

  • I'll do one more, and then I'll give you the answer -- keep thinking. And coming down.

  • Okay, if you haven't already typed down in the comments below what you think it is, the

  • answer is 6. 6 crunches equals 1 Roll Up -- did you know that? Because you're engaging all

  • of your core, not just your upper abs, not just your lower abs -- the whole thing. Last

  • one, and we're gonna get all the way up. Exhale, reach. Very good. Okay, now let's get in some

  • arm work, shall we? Onto all fours for me, guys. And I want you to really lengthen that

  • spine. Again, beautiful Pilates posture, right. We're gonna go into the Oil Rigger. Your hands

  • are gonna be right underneath your shoulders, and we're gonna attack those triceps. So,

  • go ahead and bring one leg up. If you're a beginner, what you wanna do is bring your

  • chin close to the edge of your fingertips, okay. So we're gonna go down for two and lift

  • for two -- making sure you're sucking the bellybutton in. Very good, down. And lift.

  • Now if you can't go all the way down, and you're right here, that's okay -- it's all

  • a progression. Let's go. Down for two and lift. Try to keep that leg straight. Down

  • for two and up. You've got it -- two more. Lower and reach. One more -- come on, as low

  • as you can. And bring it up, switch. Very nice. How do those triceps feel? Feel good?

  • And we reach out that other leg, eyes forward -- here we go: Bring it down for two and lift.

  • So nice. How's that form doing? I know you look gorgeous out there. And reach. Very good.

  • Press. Exhale, lift. And feeling those arms burning -- I love it. I love being sore the

  • next, and I know you do too. Secretly you do, right? Good, keep going. Three more. And

  • reach. And give me last two. One more -- go ahead and hold it down right here. Hold it

  • and reach it up. And go ahead and bring it all the way down. Very nice. Okay, arms are

  • dead, time to attack the booty. I want you to go into Grasshopper. So knees as wide as

  • your mat. You're gonna bring those big toes together. Hands underneath your chin. Just

  • rest, just rest right on there, as if you're laying down -- but you're not, because we're

  • gonna workout your butt right now. So what's gonna happen is your gonna lift up quads off

  • of the mat, squeeze your butt cheeks together -- like, literally, you have to squeeze them,

  • and then come down. Okay, now reach and lower. Reach and lower. Do you feel that? It's like

  • you don't even have to try and you feel it. And down. Reach and lower. Good. Up and down.

  • Now just relax that chest here. You don't wanna do this funky thing: A lot of people

  • like to go like that -- no. What you're going to do is keep that upper body pasted into

  • the mat, and just lift your booty. Good. Nice. Squeeze your butt. Lift. Okay, I'm gonna kill

  • you with the next one. I want you to hold it right here, then we're gonna extend the

  • legs into a Leg Extension to get those hamstrings -- reach, reach. Good. Out, out. Nice work.

  • You're gonna give me 5, and 4, 3, 2. One more -- hold it right there. Ah, feel it. And bring

  • it in together. And down. Oh, that feels so good. Let's get into your Plank and work your

  • whole core, okay. So, hands right in front of you into a sphinx. You're gonna go ahead

  • and bring your toes underneath you. We're gonna inhale through your nose. On the exhale,

  • lift up into a plank. Beginners, go ahead and come onto your knees, alright, if this

  • is a little bit too difficult for you. Otherwise, push yourself to 110 percent. Make sure that

  • tailbone is tucked, that bellybutton is sucked in. Hold it right there. Now this is a really

  • good workout to do while you're watching TV and a commercial comes on. So you're still

  • working, but it's kind of effortless, because you don't actually have to move. It can be

  • lots of effort, because you're really sucking in that core and working that whole body right

  • here. Keep holding. Now a few things to keep in mind: You don't wanna be sinking down low

  • like this. You don't want your butt to stick up like that. You wanna make sure it's at

  • an even plank. Good, hold it. Give me 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and down. Very nice. Press it back

  • into a Child's Pose. Inhale through your nose. Exhale through your mouth -- really release

  • that air. Press your chest into your knees. Give that low back a nice stretch. One more

  • time, inhale and exhale -- reach those fingers forward. And now we're gonna end with a bang.

  • We're gonna hit those obliques with your Side Plank Dippers. So onto your elbow, make sure

  • you line up that wrist and your knees against the edge of the mat, okay. So hands right

  • on the hips. All I want you to do is to lift up. Create a little space right here and then

  • come right back down. You got it? Let's lift and lower. Press and down. All the way. Good.

  • Now for those of you who wanna make this a little more challenging, go ahead and bring

  • it onto your palm right here. And lift and lower. Notice how we get more of a stretch

  • right here. You wanna press and up. Inhale down, exhale lift. Uh, do you feel that? Well,

  • if you don't, you need to go a little bit lower. Good, give me 5 and 4, 3 -- we're so

  • close -- 2. One more -- and 1. Extend that arm, hold it. And bring it down. Okay, let's

  • even it out on the other side, because I can't have you wobbling around. Gotta be even. Line

  • up those knees with your elbow right here. Hands on the hips. Let's go: Reach and down.

  • Exhale, inhale -- you got it. All the way up, just slightly touch that hip. Good. Give

  • me 5 and 4. Good -- 3. Now we're gonna bring it up onto your palm -- we're really gonna

  • push it here. All the way up. Okay, ready? Let's slightly touch that mat. We're going

  • down and lift. Lower and lift. Really getting rid of that muffin top. I know you guys don't

  • like your muffin tops, so kill it right now. Good, give me five more. Come on, touch the

  • mat and then pull up. Touch and pull. Good. Last two. One more. Down and up. Extend that

  • finger towards the sky or the ceiling, wherever you are. And go ahead and take everything

  • down. Whoa, good job, guys. Did you feel all of your muscles working, because I totally

  • did. You're gonna be so sore the next and the day after. I want you to let me know in
