Playa del Plank POP Pilates Beach Series - Blogilates
video description
I wasnt expecting to finish it.
TWICE.
Yes. You heard me right.
I just did Playa del Plank on my toes, two times in a row (5min break between) NO BODIES ON THE FLOOR.
my arm was shaking like there were earthquakes in my elbows but I held.
Its mental strength. The first time I did it today, it was super hard but I finished it. The second time I did it, I KNEW that I could do it, and it was actually a lot easier since my mind knew that I could do this!
The first time I EVER did this, even being on my knees hurt so bad. But its possible to get better.
Im living proof of that.

Cassey: does starfish thing
Me: tries it. 5 seconds later. falls in face
(but not gonna lie, when cassey said something like its okay if you cant make it through this whole video or something like that, i almost cried. i have been getting so fed up about working out and i feel like i havent been at the top of my game bc i cant do the moves perfectly, even if i am shaking and sweating. i was starting to get mad at her, but now i just want to hug her so badly and tell her how she changed my life. also, i made it through the whole video! (i had to use my knees a few times, tho)

Sometimes when I modify a move, I feel ashamed. But that is wrong. Maybe you feel like that too. but its wrong. When you modify a move, you arent slacking or trying to make it easier. Because, most people would see a workout with a move they cant do yet, and so they dont do the workout just because they arent willing to modify that single move that they cant do. But people like me who modify moves ARENT AFRAID of doing workouts where the moves are too advanced. They are just doing their best, clinging on to the hope that one day, they CAN do the advanced and you know what! YOU WILL

my arm strength has always been weak (ive made A LOT of pool noodle jokes over the years) and about 3/4 years ago I came across this video and I barely lasted a minute - since then it was a goal of mine to be able to do it and I havent been doing blogilates videos the whole time (sort of on and off with other things like yoga) but I saw this on the calendar and thought id try it still not expecting to last very long but I COMPLETED IT (and still felt like i couldve done another minute) and i am so shocked and so proud of how far my body has come!

I'm gonna post this and update it each time this workout comes up on the calendar to help me track my progress. I have been trying so hard to get it for a year and a half! Is the starfish pose like literally impossible for anyone else?
9/6/18: Right side 3 seconds, left side 0 seconds
10/6/18: Right side 10 seconds, left side 10 seconds
10/31/18: Right side 8 seconds, left side 7 seconds
12/21/18: OMG I actually did it! I held it as long as Cassey did! I'm so proud of myself! :D

It's february 10th 2021 and i am barely beginning the february workout, could not get through this workout but I got through all the rest of them. I will come back to this one as soon as i've gained strength and endurance. SO glad you came up on my tik tok because I have been so bored of everyone doing the same exercise plans over and over again. You are a lot more original. SO excited to keep working out with you!

Oh my god Cassey. I just did my workout of the day but the morning before breakfast. I always did it in the evening when I got home from work because I thought it was more pratical. But in fact: W. O. W
I feel full of energy, beautiful, confident. How is it possible?
I understand now what you meant. Since May 2018, I lost 13kg training with you and my life is already so much richer.
Love you girl

Kind of a weirdly specific question, but does anyone else have double-jointed elbows? My arms bend backwards when I hold a plank, and when I was doing this video it was very painful and my arms were shaking uncontrollably. Is this because of my arms being biologically strange or because I still have to become stronger? Has anyone been able to overcome this?

February 1st workout. my carpal tunnel is telling me no for more planks. still got the other 3 videos in for today, but I'm gonna have to pass on this one. My wrists are definitely getting better after the 21 day challenge, but I've been doing a lot more art recently and carving block prints is rough on my wrists. maybe I'll do this later

February, 1st, 2021 - I failed miserably. I kept collapsing. One of the hardest workout I've ever done. Years after not doing that workout but still taking my fitness & pilates very seriously, I still have a pretty weak upper body, or rather not very strong arms and wrists. Not sad or mad as I know that I can, have to, will work on that!
