The Pretty Little Lifters

*If you didn't listen to my pilates experiment episode...listen to episode 6.11 before this episode!

Hi team! I did a three month pilates experiment where I totally stopped lifting barbells and only did Classical Pilates and Lagree style classes. Why did I do this? Because the girlies on TikTok were saying they got snatched after they stopped weight training and only did pilates...so I did my own experiment!

In this episode, I share what my training and body composition has been like since I finished the experiment and got back to my fitness routine.

In this episode of The Pretty Little Lifters Podcast, I’m joined by pilates instructor, actor, and filmmaker Ester Mira. I met Ester when I started going to Evoken Studio for pilates. I remember taking her class and thinking she had such a calming vibe and I could tell she was passionate about what she did. We started chatting outside of class and it was fun to connect with her while we checked out new pilates studios or vented about women’s health issues and access. We were chatting one day and started venting about endometriosis and thought it’d be nice to talk about this over a podcast episode so she could share her experience with other women so they wouldn’t feel so alone in this. 

We’ll cover…

-how she got into pilates instruction

-challenges with being a pilates instructor

-her experience with endometriosis

-lack of research and progress with women’s health

And more!
