Thanks again! My abs were quite sore from Day 3 so I had to pause doe a couple of days. It felt great to resume with Day 4. I like how these are 20+ minutes. It’s always a pleasure being here with you!
The diagonal arms with rotation were very helpful in loosening up my neck and back. 👍🏻 Sitting for the ab and arms portion was a little difficult since my hip flexors seem tight. I did try the stretch (the one with one foot on the floor) that you suggested while doing Peter Pan. It did help a bit.
Glad that you mentioned this re: tight hip flexors - you can also try sitting on a small box (Balanced Body calls these the “moon box”) or a pillow to alleviate the tension in that position. Let me know how it works out!
@@MelanieLopezPilates Just did a trial run with a pillow and then yoga block. The yoga block was better, more support, but my bum is too big😂. I’ll have to look into a moon box because it did alleviate the pain. Thanks for the suggestions.
Melanie, I think I have to resubscribe to your me.ebership channel, I had fraud on my card in December, so I had to be reissued a new card. Can I still be at the same level I was, I think I had 5 months. I'm glad I realized it this morning.
Hey Julie - sorry to hear about the fraud situation! That’s always such a pain. Good news: the “time in membership” counter doesn’t reset when you cancel or when payment fails; it’s cumulative, so the counter should pick back up where you left off prior to your last membership cycle. Thanks so much!

I am loving this challenge immensely. What a great way to start the first week of the new year! ❤ Much love
I’m so glad! Thanks so much for your feedback, Bianca 💜🙏
