Carleen Dinh Explains Why Gym Rats Struggle With Pilates | The 3Gs Fitness Podcast | Ep. 109

Think Pilates is just stretching? Think again. This week, the guys sit down with Pilates instructor Carleen Dinh to talk about why Reformer Pilates has exploded in popularity, what separates it from yoga, and why even experienced weightlifters can be humbled by a single class. After taking one of Carleen's classes themselves, Coach Cisco, Coach Michael, and Coach Kael share what surprised them most, discuss how Pilates complements strength training, and explore its benefits for athletes, seniors, and even pregnancy. They also dive into the history of Pilates, common misconceptions, and why balance, mobility, and core strength matter at every age. Whether you're a gym veteran, curious about trying Pilates, or looking for new ways to improve your fitness, this episode offers practical insights from both a Pilates instructor and three strength coaches.
