XB Pilates Super Block BODi Review
XB Pilates is one of the best total body workouts. It’s a low-impact workout focusing on working the body from the core. You’ll be building strength and flexibility. No heavy lifting or high-impact cardio is needed to see results.
If one or two-pound weights don’t sound challenging see how quickly you will change your mind after trying this program!
What is XB Pilates?
XB Pilates uses reformer-inspired moves to strengthen your entire body. If feeling more flexible and looking more toned are your goals, XB Pilates can help you reach them.
Instead of using an expensive reformer machine, you will use strength slides to perform the moves. Or if you’re following the modifier they will show you how to perform the moves without the slides.

Final Thoughts on XB Pilates BODi Superblock
When I first heard about this program my first thought was to skip it. My favorite program is 80 Day Obsession.
So using one to two-pound weights didn’t sound challenging enough for me. But I was wrong. Doing the XB Pilates Super Block was fun and challenging. I’m glad I did it!
Your muscles get a workout with this program. I enjoyed this program and I’m glad I committed to it.
