Ok, the next #14daychallenge starts tomorrow. Must complete five classes a week, must post updates on insta, and also do three rounds of cardio each week for a minimum of 20 minutes (dance, run, or bike, just continuous movement). That’s right, a little extra cardio too, we get stronger together and we work harder together, which will also help us make up for the fact that we are not moving as much as normal! Let’s fucking do this. Submit before pics by tomorrow before 8pm. Winner gets a week of free virtual training. • • • • #pilates #matinthemadness #pilatesbody #onlinetraining #virtual #virtualtraining #14daychallenge #fitness #healthy #strong #abs #outerthighs #hips #legs #motivation #core #outerthigh #lunge #squats #butt #hamstrings #glutes #14daychallenge #triceps #biceps #shoulders #chest #back #obliques
