269 - (Guest) The Modern Pilates Movement: Why It’s Trending—And Why It's Worth The Hype!

Think Pilates is just for low impact? Think again. In this episode, I’m joined by Judy Pagryzinski- A modern Pilates expert and studio owner, to unpack the real benefits of Pilates—and why it’s so much more than just a trend. We dive into how Modern Pilates builds deep strength, supports hormone and nervous system health, and why it's becoming a go-to for not just everyday movers, but also high-performing athletes.

We talk mat Pilates and hot Pilates- What's the difference and is it worth the influencing hype you see online? And also, what sets Modern Pilates apart from traditional strength training, and how to incorporate it into your current routine no matter your fitness level. Whether you're strength training, running, or simply looking for smarter movement, this conversation will leave you rethinking everything you thought you knew about Pilates.
