The Mat-ter of Fact Pilates Questions
What is the difference between yoga and Pilates?
Yoga makes you feel at peace with the universe. Pilates makes you angry at a machine that looks like a medieval torture device. Both require expensive pants.
Can I lose weight doing Pilates?
You will definitely lose your patience and your dignity while shaking violently in a plank. The jury is still out on the actual calories.
Do I need to be flexible to start?
Not at all. You just need to be completely comfortable looking like a struggling turtle while everyone else looks like a graceful swan.
What should I wear to a class?
Something stretchy, slightly overpriced, and capable of hiding the tears of regret you will cry during the core section.
How often should I do Pilates?
Just enough to complain about it to your friends, but not enough to actually enjoy it. Twice a week is a solid balance.
The Person To Blame
Umer | Chief Regret Officer
Umer is the founder of PunSpill and a certified disappointment to his high school guidance counselor. He spends his days writing puns that make people groan and his nights arguing with Gerald, his emotional support opossum (and Head of HR).
He created this website because his friends muted him in the group chat. If you hated this article, please direct your complaints to the opossum; he handles the shredding.
I'm Umer. He's Gerald. I write the bad jokes; he handles the complaints (by sleeping). We created PunSpill so you have something to send your friends to annoy them. Read the full confession here.
