We are so excited you’re going to begin your Pilates journey at Live Fit! Here’s how to prepare for your first session to ensure you make the most of it:

Understand What Pilates Is

Pilates focuses on core strength, flexibility, and overall body awareness. It’s a low-impact workout that’s great for all fitness levels!

Wear the Right Clothing

Choose comfortable, form-fitting clothes that allow you to move freely. Avoid anything too loose as it might get in the way during exercises. We always suggest men wear long pants or tight shorts under their shorts to prevent a wardrobe malfunction.

Bring the Essentials

All you really need is a water bottle Live Fit provides small towels if you need one! You will most likely be barefooted so bring sticky socks if you would like to wear socks.

Stay Hydrated and Eat Light

Hydrate before class, and eat a light meal or snack about an hour before. Avoid heavy meals right before your session to prevent discomfort.

Communicate with Your Personal Trainer

Let your instructor know if you’re new to Pilates. Share any injuries or concerns you have so they can provide modifications and guidance.

Stay Open-Minded and Relax

Pilates might feel a bit foreign at first, but that’s okay! Stay open-minded and relaxed.

Enjoy your first Pilates session and the start of a healthier journey.
