Forma Pilates 4+

I loved following Forma on IG and was so happy when they came out with an app. I was shocked by the price at first since it’s a lot more than all the other apps I used to use. I finally bought it after being obsessed with the Forma IGTVs and I am so happy I did! These workouts are way better than any other app I have used. They are actually hard and I feel instant results. I hated working out at home alone but I started by doing the 10min videos daily and now I’m full blown addicted. I even brought a booty band and ankle weights on a trip with my friends so I wouldn’t miss a day. I have never been that person and now all my friends are obsessed too. I deleted all other apps and will only be doing Forma from now on! Highly recommend! It’s worth every penny!

Videos are great. She moves through the routines at a perfect speed, and there are enough videos available to create a good at-home routine. She uses platforms, bands and weighted balls, all of which I had to order. She uses merrithew/stott, and I have a balanced body reformer. There are some minor differences (eg. tramp vs jump board), though nothing serious. Her routines are slightly different and more challenging than what I was used to going to in-person reformer classes.
I have lower back problems and am trying to avoid/delay fusion surgery. Pilates keeps my back pain away as long as I do it consistently. With Covid still a “thing” I really don’t want to work out at a gym. I may not go back now that I’ve found this subscription.

The classes saved online or great but it is difficult to use app. It’s not organized. It doesn’t tell you if you have watched a video and already completed that class. At this price point- the app should be user friendly with lots of helpful options to make navigating easier. They also don’t update new classes frequently. I would expect at $50/month you would be getting new content weekly.
***Advice: it would be helpful to have them do a recommended schedule weekly. My Pilates Project - puts together a weekly schedule with videos each week. They are new and updated weekly. This makes it easy to just follow her schedule each day of the week or whenever I choose. I don’t have to search for video/class to do. I can log in go to day and start my workout.
