I'm personally obsessed with Solidcore right now, and while it's technically more of a strength-training workout than Pilates , it is done on a Pilates-inspired reformer machine. I've also taken Club Pilates classes , and I enjoy performing many of these exercises and moves at home , whether under the virtual guidance of a Peloton instructor or sans-equipment, up against a wall . All of this is to say that I believe in the benefits of slow movement and its impact on the core.
In fact, I feel like I've become a stronger runner ever since I began incorporating Pilates classes into my weekly fitness routine. And as a shopping editor, you know I've accumulated products to support my newfound workout obsession, from adorable grippy socks and matching workout sets that make me feel more confident when I'm peering in the mirror to wrist and ankle weights that help me amplify my sessions, and even a high-traction mat that works for both yoga and Pilates . Ahead, I've named 10 products that make me feel like a Pilates pro every time, and assist in pre-class rituals (think: hydration packets !) and post-class recovery (anti-inflammatory face spray, a top-notch massage gun to target overworked muscle groups, and more).
Just scroll to shop! Grip Socks MoveActive Classic Low Rise Grip Socks in Powder Blue ($16) While there are tons of grip socks out there, I'm personally a fan of the brands that offer plenty of different sizes, colors, and silhouettes for the perfect fit. MoveActive's com.
