🎄 DAY 14 of the 24 Days of Fitmas — Pilates Edition! 🎄
Today we’re turning up the spine-tingling fun with the Articulated Pilates Bridge — aka the move that makes your vertebrae feel like they’re rolling down a cozy holiday toboggan hill. 😉

✨ Why “articulated”?
Because we’re lifting and lowering the spine one vertebra at a time — like twinkling lights turning on in a perfect, smooth sequence. This move strengthens your glutes + hamstrings, wakes up your core, improves spinal mobility, and teaches your body control and precision.
Your low back will say: “THANK YOU for not flinging me up like a Christmas tree skirt.”

🎁 Cues for a perfect, gift-wrapped bridge:
• Press through your feet and melt your spine up off the mat, bone by bone
• Keep ribs knitted in like your favourite holiday sweater
• Pause at the top — squeeze those glutes like you’re trying to crack a festive walnut
• Lower down slow-mo… one vertebra at a time
• Breathe and enjoy — your spine loves this more than eggnog

✨ Festive Message
Unwrap a little mobility magic today. A happier spine = a happier YOU… and fewer grinchy moments as holiday chaos arrives. 😜
Keep shining, keep rolling, keep moving—Fitmas continues! 🎅💪

🎄✨ DAY 13 of the 24 DAYS OF FITMAS — PILATES EDITION ✨🎄
Move of the Day: Bridge with Dumbbells

Today’s festive burner: the classic Pilates bridge… but make it jolly by adding dumbbells! 🎁💪
Because nothing says “holiday cheer” quite like lifting your hips, squeezing your glutes, and holding dumbbells like you’re about to deliver gifts across the North Pole.

Why this move is magical:
This variation fires up your glutes, hamstrings, and core while giving your arms a little extra love. It improves hip mobility, strengthens your posterior chain, and sneaks in some upper-body work — basically, it’s the full-body gift that keeps on giving. 🎅✨

Cues to Sleigh the Move:
• Lie on your back, knees bent, feet hip-width apart
• Hold your dumbbells straight up over your chest (try not to drop them… Santa is watching 👀🎄)
• Press through your heels and lift your hips toward the ceiling
• Squeeze your glutes at the top like you’re trying to crack a candy cane 🍭😂
• Keep your ribs down and core engaged
• Lower with control — no plopping! Even elves move with intention
• Repeat and feel the holiday heat! 🔥

Ho-ho-hold that bridge, team — your glutes will be jingling by the end.
