I saw a foldable Pilates machine on eBay… that would be awesome but 1. that’s a great way to get involuntarily folded into a metal death trap and 2. would I actually use it. Because fatigue is kicking my arse
Maybe I’ll think about it after I’ve sold some of my stuff and cleared out some storage space
Edit: Also worth considering if it’s a real product for such a low price (ie does the picture reflect accurately what you get, or could it even be a scam)
Yeah nah
My immediate thought was to that I would end up folded in a mental death trap!
I saw a treadmill for a good price this morning and there was much 🤔🤔🤔but then I thought, "Go for a real walk! Get fit and save money!" I'll probably do neither 😆
I've only used machines at gyms or studios and they've always been rock solid devices. I tend to break chairs so wouldn't trust a flimsy reformer.
