Mik I really don't know how you don't have millions of followers. Your videos are such high quality. The work-outs are unique and effective and fun and the editing on your videos is chef s kiss!
Totally agree! I tend to lose my motivation rather quickly but thanks to Mik’s videos I enjoy my workouts and even miss them when I have no time for them!! 🎉 thank you Mik!!
I love doing weights with Pilates! It’s so much better for my knees and I really get a great workout! Please have more of these 30 min dumbbells and Pilates! Thank you
I've been doing Pilates for years, so my vote is YES, bring on more of the same! You blended Pilates in seamlessly. Goodness, you are a gem of an instructor.
This was the perfect workout! The weights were challenging but protected my shoulders, the moves were unique (not the same 'ol boring ones), the modifications were perfect, I even got a bit of cardio in, I love that warm up and cooldown are included, and as always, your cheerful yet calm demeanor really makes your videos my favorite! Thanks Mik! :)
I discovered your videos about a month or so ago and I have never looked back! I now do one of your workouts every day and I have never felt stronger! I am 6 months postpartum with my third baby and it’s been so great to gain my strength and stamina back 😊 thank you thank you thank you! I will keep coming back for your videos!
Mik ~ Your workouts truly are the most effective that I found. You keep it short yet powerful & doable. I love your personality as well. Keep adding those workouts that have Both dumbbells & Pilates they are wonderful.
This 60 something young gal appreciates the care you take in crafting your workouts to allow one to rise in ability and speed in a safe manner. I've been doing your cardio and strength/cardio workouts for about 5 months and when I returned to my walk/jogs outdoors in the spring, I felt the difference it made! I was thrilled to find this one combining dumbbell strength and Pilates moves. Thank you!
Mik I am so grateful I found your channel. The way you talk feels like my elder sister is motivating me that I CAN DO. love you and I pray so you reach million followers. 😊
I didn’t think I would sweat that hard when previewing this workout and I was wrong!!!! Such a strong sweaty workout. I’m loving your weekly challenges and I find it’s balanced so perfectly! You are an expert in what you do Mikayla!
Exercise because you love your body not because you hate it ! I always loved sports and keeping my body in shape. I watched RUclips videos like yours to shape up and now I want to inspire other people, so I started creating my own workouts on my channel. I love doing both your workouts and my own 💪🏼🤗
I have been doing these workouts for the majority of January and am already seeing results. I love these pilates workouts. I have recommended your channel to so many people. Thank you for your videos :)
Everything easy to follow, what i needed when I didn't want heavy blood rushing from lifting heavy, yet my body was still challenged in balance and core moves. Thank you!
I’ve been working out on apps and RUclips for 10 years! I tried your workouts for the first time and I have to say I really loved them!Greetings from Athens Greece!!❤
❤ Ein wunderschöner Flow! Die kleine Balance-Einheit zwischendrin hat mir gut gefallen. 😊 War ein schöner ruhiger Start in den Sonntag. Ich liebe es am Morgen Yoga zu praktizieren, wenn alle anderen noch schlafen. 😴 Sobald meine Jungs (7 und 9) die Augen aufmachen ist es mit der Ruhe vorbei. Deine Videos helfen mir für mir Entspannung und Ausgeglichenheit. Vielen, vielen Dank dafür, Verena 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
This was a creative and well rounded workout that I will definitely do again. I appreciate that the music isn't over-bearing as that can get annoying. (Am I the only one who would prefer no music at all so I can just play my own tunes while still hearing your instructions and count down?) Thanks for the workout!
Combining pilates and strength training is so effective when you just have a little bit of time to squeeze in a workout. Please add more of these workouts! You are an awesome instructor!!
I loved this one!!! I enjoy your workouts so much, thank you for being one of the best teachers on here. I value your time and energy, the workouts are really helping me. Have a great weekend! xx
I have been doing Ellen Barrett workouts for years, thanks to my friend stumbling upon you, I now have a new favorite! I’m 52 years old and most of the exercises I’ve done throughout my life so just incorporating the weights have given me a good challenge. ❤❤❤
Yes please - more Pilates with weights workouts❣️ LOVED this one as it’s the perfect blend with the added Pilates. Please please do more Pilates mat workouts and Pilates with weights. And, if you could, some more all kickboxing cardio workouts too - we love you & your style of cross training is so we’re getting the best of all styles❣️ Thank you so much 💖🌸
My husband and I we do your strength workouts and since we also try to incorporate pilates into our schedule, those strength+pilates workout are really great! Thanks a lot!
For some reason I didn't think it would be challenging, and it was! I love your creativity in the moves with hardly any repeats. I've been working out with you for three months and no one else compares to your structure of the videos. They are top notch!!
i love this workout. I love the combination of toning with pilates and a touch of cardio. My entire body feels toned, and I did the modifications which were still challenging. At 66, I don't want to risk more back and shoulder pain. This was perfect.
After recovering from illness over Xmas and new year, I've been following your exercises and I'm now getting my strength back 💪🏼 I don't know how you came into my life but in so very grateful ❤ you're amazing
I just found you!!! I did beachbody workouts for years and they got way too expensive. then as i got older, i noticed more and more back pain. I have been searching for a workout just like this! Strength training plus pilates is a dream workout for me!!! Thank you!!!
I love everyone of your videos. I've been an athlete my whole life and you still come up with moves I haven't seen to keep ot interesting and fresh 😀. Plus you make it nice and hard so we feel like it was worth the time. THANKS!!!!
One of the best ones yet! Really great combo moves that switch on multiple groups of muscles in one move! I do wonder why there are sometimes two sets on the same leg back to back - the muscles get fatigued and then I lose my form. Wouldn't it be be better to switch between the legs, or are there benefits to really burning out one leg at a time? In any case, great moves and I will be coming back to this one!
Been following your workouts now for a couple of weeks....AND CHIIILD...you work muscles I didn't even know was there..PHEW!! YOU ARE A BEAST, and I just LOVE your workouts. They are a great challenge for me. I, in no way look as cute and calm like you do while you're KILLING US 😂😂😂😂😂. You're really great!!! Thank you for being here and helping us on our health journey. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎉🎉🎉🎉 5:38
wowowowow! what a combo! please do more of these please. dumbbell strength x pilates is now my favourite! warmup + cool down was great! ❤ This is my first workout with you!
Loved everything about this class (perfect combo of strength & pilates, perfect length of time, includes warm-up & cool down & nice aesthetic background) tysm for this!
Compared to earlier videos, thanks for adding more things in the studio (plants etc) for visual interest. Somehow being distracted and looking at them helps persevering when the workout gets too tough, plus it looks prettier. I'd be grateful for more items to look at in the background (not anything overpowering, subtle like what you have now, but still helpful )
I just started following you a few months ago and I LOVE the workouts. They give me an full body workout in a short period of time which keeps me motivated and coming back every day!! Thank you!!
I love all your workouts and have really enjoyed Pilates with weights. It gives an already good workout extra depth and helps with strength too. I'd love to see more of these 😊
I find myself gravitating towards compound weight workouts over intense cardio HIIT. This one was so unique w/ the infusion of Pilates and weights. Will definitely put this workout on rotate!
Hello, I just found you and I just finished your workout and I love it. I love that you mix the weights with the Pilates. As I’m trying to strengthen my shoulder from rotator cuff surgery a year ago, and I’m also trying to strengthen my hips one is lower than the other so I just love this. Thank you so much 🙏🏽
Wow! It was brilliant, thank you. I loved the variety and there were some exercises I've never seen before. Please more 30 min dumbbell or elastic band workouts. Thank you!
That's was so great. Thank you so very much. I am a long time Pilates person and to combine it with a little heavier weight training is super ! I'm so very glad I found you and put you workouts into heavy rotation. Thank you!
So good to have the inclusion of warm up and cool down (with stretches lasting more than a few seconds). At times i felt I would have needed more details, for example about proper alignment of hips (square or open) or positioning of feet (flexed or pointed). But all in all a great workout.
This was an amazing workout. I loved the combo! Was challenging and felt like I was really working many muscle groups and developing that functional strength. Would love to see more of these!
Thank you so much for these workouts!!! Also, I just wanna know if there is some community that shares results from her videos. I absolutely enjoy and seeing some results would be even more motivating
Hello Mik! I have been loving your workouts during pregnancy! Cardio, HIIT, and strength training! If would be helpful to have some more modifications in general when you do exercises from the belly. Some of the sessions have leg lifts from the belly - I dont think this one did though! Thank you again for the amazing workouts and love for mental and physical health!
Mik I really don't know how you don't have millions of followers. Your videos are such high quality. The work-outs are unique and effective and fun and the editing on your videos is chef s kiss!
Right? Her workouts are accessible for everyone and they stay interesting. I don't get it either.
That’s what I’ve said a few times! Totally agree!
Totally agree! I tend to lose my motivation rather quickly but thanks to Mik’s videos I enjoy my workouts and even miss them when I have no time for them!! 🎉 thank you Mik!!
You are the best!!❤
She will. I started following her one year ago and now she has 4 times more subscribers. She deserves 10 million at least 😊😊😊
I love doing weights with Pilates! It’s so much better for my knees and I really get a great workout! Please have more of these 30 min dumbbells and Pilates! Thank you
Yes, same! 💛 Please make more pilates with dumbbells & ankle weights workouts!

Definitely love videos like this
I agree, more full body strength x pilates & without wrists if possible ❤

I also have to thank you for not being super talkative during the workout! Makes it much more enjoyable

These Pilates + Dumbbells workout routines are super fun and challenging. Thank you.
Love your workouts. They feel timeless. The best part is when you tell us we are one away from our last move 😂
Yes please - more of these ones - strength and Pilates full body.
LOVED this combination of slightly lighter weight but difficult for the arms, glutes and core - all in 30 minutes! Wow! More please!!!

Such a great workout! Love the mixture of Pilates/weights.
Yes! Please more Pilates type workouts with what you are adding! This is great!

These combined strength and Pilates are amazing! Love it. Please continue making these.

Hi!
Love the combination moves. Makes me think about the move and less about how much more time. Feeling great!

Been doing your workout for about a year now and the weights + pilates are the best! Really works my whole body- please make more!
Thanks!

LOVED this workout and your presence! Thank you so much! Yes, would love to see more videos with dumbell/pilates combo.
Compared to earlier videos, thanks for adding more things in the studio (plants etc) for visual interest. Somehow being distracted and looking at them helps persevering when the workout gets too tough, plus it looks prettier. I'd be grateful for more items to look at in the background (not anything overpowering, subtle like what you have now, but still helpful )
Love this format. Great for when I don’t have the energy in the morning for intense weights workout but still lifting weights. Thank you!
This was absolutely amazing!!!!! It was difficult especially the last plank - just what I needed! Thank you❤
You are the best instructor! Loved this combination! Thank you so much!
