Hello everyone, I'm a huge fan of working with the resistance band. It's great for toning the arms and shoulders and in this workout I combine that with a thorough leg session too- all standing so you will really benefit from a full body workout that includes core work too. Enjoy and let me know how you get on in the comments below. Have a great day, Rachel 💕
Found this band workout this morning - wow, I had no idea my left arm & shoulder were so weak compared to my right. Definitely be doing this one again - thank you!
For Eleanor in Australia who just posted on my Live chat feed. You can use weights if you wish. personally I have found resistance based workouts better for my body so I tend to use either the resistance band, the Pilates magic Circle or my own bodyweight. if you look around my channel you will find lots of workouts that will help you build strength. I would recommend mixing the standing sessions with the resistance band workouts and trying to do 3/4 sessions a week. You'll find my standing work pretty challenging and I would encourage you to listen to yur body and mix things up., Hope that helps, Rachel 😊
Rachel, I only stumbled across your channel yesterday when looking for some basic palates for a bad/recovering back. I found your 10 minute routine which was just great. Then this today...my arms are screaming but with that lovely 'i've done exercise' feeling. I am hooked! Thank you so much...here is to a much stronger me moving forwards. Thank you in advance xx
This is the third of your sessions I've done, and definitely the most exhausting. Great stuff. I'm exploring all of your workouts, and swapping around to different ones each day. In about 20 years, we'll all have a great figure like yours!!!
Another great video. I love the arm work with the resistance band. Any resistance band routine works for me. The only drawback, for me, were the knee bends, which I did less vigourously.
This is great! I'm getting as good of a workout as when I went to Pilates Mat Class 3 times a week. Follow her videos you will be glad you did! I try to get in 3-4 a week targeting different parts of the body! Love it! She's the REAL Thing!
You’re just wonderful, have been wanting to connect with Pilates for years, but greatly appreciate your “balletic” touches and general expertise! All kind regards, Sara
These bands really work, arms are killing me! More for legs and knees with bands please!! Thanks Rachel you glasses are a godsend! I won't be returning to my gyms senior classes, these are so much better! x
Hello Jane! That’s absolutely wonderful to hear, thanks so much for letting me know how much you enjoy the sessions. You might like to try this session from my live class last Friday too: th-cam.com/video/o1q8QMXtl2g/w-d-xo.html Lots more classes to come, thanks so much for supporting my channel 🤗😘
Wow a very challenging learning experience, I will only do it to a teacher like you who is very mindful of alignments .thank you for your great work, appreciate it.
Hello Rachel thank you for this workout. I did some of yours in the first lockdown (the ones for seniors) and enjoyed them. I have a resistance band languishing in the drawer so am pleased that I am now able to use it!
I love this workout, Rachel. Today I really felt a big improvement in my strength and balance. It is really satisfying, because I work out with you almost every day and have done for at least 6 months now.
Started early this morning with this session. Finished with 30 minutes pilates, can't remember the namn of it. But it was really Hard work and I felt so good after🤩 I love all your sessions Rachel❣ Pilates is something I have to do everyday, the impulsion to do it is with me🥰 Thank you dear Rachel 🤗❤❣
Oh my goodness, this is amazing. So I've been using hand weights for around 3 months to try and build up my arms and upper body (primarily to do some of the floor exercises that I can't hold myself up on very well!) and thought I was making good progress. I've just tried this using my light band, and flipping heck, I can't even complete the reps on some of these. I found this really challenging, in a very good way. I'm going to do this every other day, until I can do it with ease (could be a long time). I'm still amazed that this band is so much more difficult and challenging than hand weights. Thank you once again Rachel, I really liked this one, more resistance band ones for beginners please. Super!
Thank you Rachael I really like all your wonderful workouts, I like how you tell us when to breathe at the right times, I have been following you since the first lockdown, great work😁
This was amazing Rachel.I have been doing your classes since they first began and I have to say this is now a favourite. I particularly like classes that utilise the Pilates ring, resistance bands and small ball. I regularly mix a couple of shorter classes together and follow them up with your night time class, just to relax and wind down. Thank you for continually sharing your amazing knowledge and talent Rachel.
Challenging, but at the same time enjoyable 🤩 I wasn't sure if I will enjoy doing resistance band pilates and was pleasantly surprised ☺️ Now fan of resistance band 😍 Thank you Rachel 💞🤗
Great work out! Every workout I'm greatly surprised at how flexible strong and slimmer my body is becoming! Also, the brain fog has lifted! Thank you so much! God bless you !
This was intense! It was a little too much for me but I will keep doing it. I think I'll do it without the band next time so I can make sure my alignment is proper while I build up strength. I can't wait to do it again but I know I'm going to be feeling it tomorrow! Thanks, Rachel.
Phew, that was quite challenging for my weak shoulders, especially the “up, back and round” while standing on the end of the resistance band. But it was still possible and gives me hope that if I persevere I will get stronger! Thanks for another great session.
Just seen this. really interested in resistance band, as I've injured my arm using hand weights (annoying!), hoping I can combine your amazing Pilates with some strength training, can not wait!
Hi Claire, sorry to hear about your arm. The resistance band will challnege the arms so if anything feels too much on the injured arm then just loosen the band so it;s not so strong. Enjoy! 😊
Just finished your band workout and it is so helpful- with great instruction. Can I press a like each time I view, or does TH-cam count automatically each time I do a session?

Hi Rachel, More like this please! Excellent workout in a short amount of time!!
@Bryant Ryan Why are you plugging a movie site on an exercise thread???
Found this band workout this morning - wow, I had no idea my left arm & shoulder were so weak compared to my right. Definitely be doing this one again - thank you!
so wonderful to be able to work with you when my wonderful teachers/studio is closed-- thank you thank you
Oh thank you Rachel! I love this workout, it covers it all! I don't know how I missed this one 2 years ago! This is now one of my favorites!

Thank you! This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for!
Great workout, targeted and fast, I was able to do it on my morning break! Sooooo good for those of us who sit at desks all day.
Thank you for doing a standing band workout for arms! I loved it!! And all your standing workouts are the best. You are amazing!!

Great for my arms, really felt it. Thank you.
Loved this workout! It was great for all of the body, but I really liked the extra focus on the arms😍. Thank you!
Great to hear! And glad you liked the arm focus- good to really feel them working isn’t it! 🤗😘
Just found this one & it’s great 👍 Have thoroughly enjoyed your various resistant band workouts just waiting for the bat wings to reduce 😁
Just seen this. really interested in resistance band, as I've injured my arm using hand weights (annoying!), hoping I can combine
your amazing Pilates with some strength training, can not wait!
Hi Claire, sorry to hear about your arm. The resistance band will challnege the arms so if anything feels too much on the injured arm then just loosen the band so it;s not so strong. Enjoy! 😊
Me too, arm and shoulder. Loving Pilates :)
Wonderful class! You motivated me to buy the resistance bands and I am loving using them for your classes :)
Thank you for these, I’ve made your workouts part of my daily (almost) routine. Really helps with balance and overall body strength and flexibility.
Loved that and lots of arm work thank you :))
Just finished your band workout and it is so helpful- with great instruction.
Can I press a like each time I view, or does TH-cam count automatically each time I do a session?
I saw you recommended fitness bands on a seniors workout, I ordered one and just tried this. One to work on for me, my areas are not strong.
Really enjoyed that Rachel. Thanks.
That was a great session because my stretchband was getting 'dusty'! I will do this one more often!
Really enjoyed this great workout. Thank you.
This is a great work out❤😊
