M/BODY Online Fitness Studio

Hey m/body fam! I've really been enjoying getting back into the program postpartum and am keen to try some of the power sculpt classes. I will need to buy some new weights to do this as I only use small 1kgs for regular classes.

Is there a specific weight size that seems best for these classes? I was thinking 5lb or 8lb but would love to hear feedback :)

Also curious if anyone has a brand of weights they love and find easy to grip. I don't care much for the shiny metal grips of most weights.

Thanks!

Hi Marnie and Fam--

I love MBODY! I have been working out with you since the Popsugar video days on YT ;)

Recently, when we do pleats and moves where our hips are angled, I get knee pain on one side. This started recently, and it happens when I jog as well.

Can you (or anyone else) suggest any exercises or warm ups so that my knee doesn't hurt when we do these moves?

Has this issue arisen for other folks??

Thank You! MBODY FOREVER!! 🥰

Hi fam! I just have to say I’m so grateful for this movement and every now and again it just hits me how much healing there is in this movement. I did the sweat and stretch class/530 the other day and went through so many emotions, intially maybe shut down to some interesting rage to a release like you see from a child after temper tantrum or after you have cried so long and deep and that last quick inhalation part and finally the long exhale. It was very powerful. Then today I ran across this quote on Pinterest and I just had to share. In these hard time for sure never ever ever stop dancing! And have to add this is something I think I’m going to be intentional about. I’m going to be intential to just dance. Seeng all the moments in life actually as a dance and moving naturally, poetically, messily, letting the movements be silly, real, and honest. I took dance as a little girl and though teen years and I wish I had a teacher like Marnie then to see dance as a way to express not just be perfect and another space of getting critiqued! Really this work and this space is truly is a place to express and what a sacred thing that is! Thank you thank you!! ❤️💃🏻

What activity/exercise setting do you use on your fitbits or smartwatches for a typical M/Body class? Lately, I’ve been using “Aerobics”. I’ve also done “Dancing” and “Pilates”. Other options I’m considering are “Core Training”, “Strength Training”, and just “Workout” lol.

FWIW, I have an older Fitbit (inspire 3!)

Early May is my 6th year Marnie-versary and I always like to reflect back on the changes to my spirit and my body.

Some things are always hard and that's OK because we can do hard things. Planks will never be my favorite move but I've gotten better at them and that's the win.
There is literally a workout for every mood. If I'm feeling low energy, there are 60 mins that hit that sweet spot. If I'm feeling amped up, there are 60 mins that have me singing along. The key is to show up to the mat, the rest works itself out.
It's weird good to be part of a community where I've never met anyone but feel connected to everyone because we all want the same things.
The changes are cumulative - they add up and compound until one day, you can say "nice ass" to yourself (and you should!)
Marnie mantras have become a part of my life and they show up in ways small and large that help me center and reset.
Here's to many more 4 sets of 8's.💪🎉

Hi fam!

Just wanted to share a cool story about how M/BODY has helped me even when I’m rehabilitating or working on something else. A few months ago my husband sent me to Myodetox(a physical therapy clinic) to work on my traps as the left one wasn’t allowing me to look left or roll my neck without discomfort. The therapist said I had to reduce the tension in my neck and traps, and widen my chest. He started showing me the exercises to help with mobility etc while I started more M/BODY posture work/back classes. Today was a new exercise with kettle bell rows and deadlifts. Now he’s super impressed with my form because he usually has to explain a few times but he said my posture & form were perfect, and that my alignment is strong. I know for a fact that it was only possible because of M/BODY and my progress is moving quickly because of it. Marnie magic is real and helps us move through this life. Sending you all love 💛💛💛💫
