I just have to share about Cassey Ho and her amazing POP Pilates/Blogilates. I first found her on Youtube while looking for some fun and doable exercise videos. Cassey is just what I needed! Her videos are excellent! The right amounts of fun and exercise. I am a worn out, homeschooling, mother of five. I don’t need overly perky, I don’t want a drill sergeant, I don’t want something that is way beyond what I feel I can do, and quite honestly, I don’t want to leave the house to do it. Adding one more thing to the schedule or having to worry about what I will wear and how is my hair – not going to happen. I want fun,beneficial, and in my own home.
The Blogilates videos on youtube are perfect! Clear instructions, clear sound so you can actually hear what is being said, and a clear picture of the moves being done. Cassey is fun and energetic without appearing fake or forced. I have the impression that she is a very genuine person and that meeting her in person would be a great experience. Best of all (can you beat all that?!), it’s all 100% FREE! I keep waiting for there to be a request for money in one way or another, but there has not been. I’ve even signed up for her newsletter (free) in order to get her monthly workout calendar (also free). In anticipation of some upcoming travel, I have even saved a few of her “printables” (workout details with pictures) to my cloud storage so that I can pull them up on my android phone. I use Dropbox for this.
As I said, I’ve carried and birthed five babies. I am far from being as healthy as I would like to be. I can’t do every move Cassey urges me to, but I try my best. I’ve been working out with Cassey (via Youtube) for about 3 weeks now I think. I can feel some real differences. I do feel stronger. I do feel better about myself. I have found that on those days I really don’t feel up to exercising, Cassey is too encouraging to argue with. I give in and end up feeling better for it. I am actually looking forward to my workouts! This is certainly earth shattering and worthy of a shout from the hill tops! As she says, “You are one workout away from a good mood!”
I am so glad to have found Blogilates! Thank you Cassey for helping this mama find her mojo again! I have realized that taking care of me is very important. I want to be strong, healthy, and live a long life.
