What if building strength isn’t just about heavy weights or perfect form, but about how your body feels and responds to movement in the moment?
In this episode of Three Questions with Meghann Koppele Duffy, I dig into a fitness debate I often hear: Pilates or weight training? But instead of offering a one-size-fits-all answer, I break down how goals, sensory preferences, and honest self-inquiry shape the way we build strength, resilience, and longevity.
You’ll hear me talk about progressive overload (and how it’s often misunderstood), what the research really says about reps vs. load, and why the “right” workout depends less on dogma and more on how your brain and body feel safe enough to adapt.
If you’ve ever felt pulled between the stability of Pilates and the intensity of lifting, or if you’re just tired of the binary thinking around movement, this episode is for you. Whether you're a clinician, an athlete, or just a curious mover, these three questions could reframe how you think about strength forever.
