You have been the ONLY pilates instructor that I have absolutely loved. I am a correctional exercise specialist personal trainer (never did pilates with a bar) but I wanted to try other things for my clients. They adore the things I have taught them and many of the things have been inspired by you. Thank you so much for making me a more well rounded trainer and helping people be stronger and better ❤
Wow thank you blown away by your kindness and delighted to share knowledge with a fellow teacher. Inspiring each other and always learning is the best way to help our clients . Your clients are very lucky to have such a supportive coach x Enjoy and have lots of fun x 🥰
PHEW!!!! I got one hell of a work out with my first use of my Pilates bar!!! Thank you so much, Donna, for your wonderful beginner-friendly video! Your kind voice and encouraging words really kept me going. I can't wait to watch more and continue my journey into growing stronger and feeling better. :)
This is really a great way to start getting back to working out. It's my first time using the pilates bar and I'm not familiar with pilates at all. Thank you for this!
Just found you by accident. I bought a pilates bar years ago but found no workouts for it. I tried this workout today and discovered that my upper strength needs a lot of work. Thanks so much for posting!
Hi Marjorie thank you so much for commenting … great to hear from you and fab to know you’ve dusted off your Pilates bar and we can enjoy lots of workouts together xx
I bought 4 more for Christmas Gifts! I have a bad back/hips and been struggling on finding a workout that works for me. Finally, after several years trying this and that....I found you. Thank you. I have to modify at times but I still feel the results.
Thank you :) I hope this is ok to ask. How many times a week would you recommend doing this video to build up to it. I have a lot of weight to lose. Pilates is something I want to do as my main exercise, along with walking :) xx
Thank you!!! Found you through a search, you were the only one I found that had clear instructions and the workout was great didnt realise i’d completed it until you said well done. Really great workout and i’d revisit this workout again.
I bought a pilates wand from Amazon in October. haven't used it yet, i saw one of your videos all ready, i been doing sitting exercises for a while, and i have exercise door bands, in different strengths. that i also brought from Amazon last year, i have bone on bone ,and waiting for my knee surgery come spring. I'm gonna try this . I've been trying to keep my weight down and weight myself every other day. i have a weight scale that tells me everything. i have different types of exercise equipment and physical therapy equipment from hip injury. and exercise session papers . so going to try this out. 😊
Want more? links.pilatesbarworkouts.com/register Every time I use my Pilates Bar, I enjoy the challenge and the fun this clever price of equipment brings to my workout. I would love to hear how you get on, what you enjoy about this workout, and what other workouts would you like to see? xx
Quiero felicitarte por tus maravillosas clases. Hace poco hice mi curso de instructora de pilates pero no cuento con el reformer y está es una excelente opción para comenzar
More to come! Plus I'll have a dedicated course available very soon, register your interest here links.pilatesbarworkouts.com/register to be the first to know when it's ready.

Just discovered you and loving the work outs. I've been motivated to work out almost every day. I'm 71 and not very limber so some of the moves are a bit difficult for me. Will this get better or can you make any suggestions. Thanks so much. Absolutely love this!
71 and clearly fabulous ! Thank you for taking the time to comment. Over time your body will get stronger and repeating the exercises will help. There are so many workouts on my channel, dip into a few more and find the ones that work for you and make you and your body feel good. Keep up the great work xx 😘
Hi love these workouts. Only just started but my core is definitely getting stronger. Do you have a workout specifically for helping to get rid of my post pregnancy overhang please?
I am so excited to start these workouts. I've been on a 3 year break from my regular pilates sessions. I'm just curious about what weight resistance should be used. I don't want it too heavy but challenging enough.
Hi Cheryl How’s it going ? Are you having fun with your Pilates bar?? I love that you are returning to pilates and appreciate you choosing to workout with me x Enjoy xx 😘
I just did this video for the first time tonight, and I can definitely feel it already in my legs. My only restriction at the moment is how far I can bend with my knees, hoping that changes as I continue to do this as well as other things.
You have got so much flexibility in your hips 😭 but I'm striving for the same ability 🙌 my bridge is nearly non existent and I can't really lift my body without help from my elbows but I'm hoping to get there one day
everyone will be different as we are all starting from a different place in terms of levels of fitness, mobility, strength. i would aim to exercise 3-4 times a week, increasing the intensity by increasing the number of reps or the length of a hold and over times should should definetly feel a difference in terms of strength and stamina
im 62,dont know a thing about the P bar but think it could be an ideal travel companion,,can i add small increments of resistance ,,,like 5% at a time? thank you
No worries … progress takes time and you will 💯 get there. You can always add more tension by rolling the straps around the bar. Have you seen the 28 Pilates Bar Challenge on my channel?? Xx
I got one from Amazon UK, this the one: geni.us/AmazonPilatesBar (it will take you to a search page if the same model isn't available in your local Amazon)
Hi Kathy, I don't have any specific recomendation, I just searched Amazon (geni.us/AmzPilatesBar) and picked one that had good reviews and a reasonable price.
Not sure why there's not more likes. Amazing workouts! I feel stronger, thanks to your creative and challenging workouts. 😊
My gosh
I am sore doing this my legs shaking my arms feeling it my abdominals def wow. What I needed

I would love some more core workouts. Lower abdomen. Menopause belly workout.
Hi Natalie
I've just filmed a core workout with the Pilates Bar , it will coming v soon xx
I just did this video for the first time tonight, and I can definitely feel it already in my legs. My only restriction at the moment is how far I can bend with my knees, hoping that changes as I continue to do this as well as other things.
You got this! Enjoy, keep listening to your body and be proud of your efforts xx 🙌👍💯 xx
New subbie 🎉 Wondering which resistance to order.
Fabulous !! Look forward to seeing lots of you x
I alter the resistance on my bar by shortening the straps….

Thank you for your kind words, good to know you enjoyed it 🙏👍🙌🤩 x
@@PilateswithDonnaFinnie Thank you very mutch... have a nice Weekend.... see you….
My sciatica did not like the floor part 😢 will find another one of your Pilates video any suggestions?
Sorry to hear that … there are a few workouts that are in a standing position that are very effective xx
You have got so much flexibility in your hips 😭 but I'm striving for the same ability 🙌 my bridge is nearly non existent and I can't really lift my body without help from my elbows but I'm hoping to get there one day
One day at a time … finding a way of moving your body that you enjoy is a great place to start, enjoy the process and 💯be proud of your efforts xx 😘
Hi how many times a week would I need to do this to see results ?
everyone will be different as we are all starting from a different place in terms of levels of fitness, mobility, strength. i would aim to exercise 3-4 times a week, increasing the intensity by increasing the number of reps or the length of a hold and over times should should definetly feel a difference in terms of strength and stamina
Is there a specific bar you would recommend please.

Thank you ❤️❤️
im 62,dont know a thing about the P bar but think it could be an ideal travel companion,,can i add small increments of resistance ,,,like 5% at a time? thank you
They typically don't allow you to adjust the resistance, although I do have a little trick you can try: th-cam.com/users/shortsRpZN-tsEMdQ
Wow amazing work out but I couldn't roll up 😂😂
No worries … progress takes time and you will 💯 get there. You can always add more tension by rolling the straps around the bar. Have you seen the 28 Pilates Bar Challenge on my channel?? Xx
What pilates pole do you use please
SMUG … bought on Amazon, very reasonable and durable xx
Can you pls tell me where you got your Pilates bar from?:)
I got one from Amazon UK, this the one: geni.us/AmazonPilatesBar (it will take you to a search page if the same model isn't available in your local Amazon)
This was a tough one 😅
Huge well done 👍💪🙌 x
Czy wszystkie gumy maja jednakowa długość,czy jest długość uzależniona od wzrostu
This is the bar I use …

wondering which palates barr to get?
Hi Kathy, I don't have any specific recomendation, I just searched Amazon (geni.us/AmzPilatesBar) and picked one that had good reviews and a reasonable price.
In lingua italiana è possibile averlo
Three commercials came through while doing this work out. Seems a little counterproductive.
Frustrating ! When a commercial comes on maybe continue doing more reps of the exercise you were on rather than pausing , use it to your advantage 😜
You are great but you go WAY TOO FAST. Like you gotta slow down, not all of us can keep up. I need to find another instructor.
Noted! X
