| | September 24, 2024 |  | | | | | | | PRESENTED BY | | | | | | | Good morning! As part of our recent Strong Women digital issue, we dove deep into the conversation around building muscle and key differences between pilates and weightlifting—a hot topic we've heard strong opinions about. But before you start taking sides, hear us out! Here's what we've got on deck today: - The great strength exercise debate
- Shocking stats on women and chronic pain
- 4 pumpkin recipes you need to make ASAP
- Our editor's favorite air-fryer
I'd love to hear: Are you a Pilates devotee who decided to pick up weights? A gym rat who takes an occasional Pilates class? Or maybe you do both? (I'm a fan of a weekly megaformer pilates class, and I love to mix in a couple days of weight lifting.) Tell me your favorite way to approach these types of fitness and any changes you've noticed in your body. | | — Ailsa Cowell, M.S., health editor | | | | | Pilates vs. weightlifting… or maybe both? | |  | | "Pilates has many benefits, but it will not build the same amount of muscle mass as weight lifting," explains Nichele Cihlar, a certified trainer in both Pilates and weight lifting. Why is that? According to Cihlar, "You have to increase exercise volume and intensity over time to increase muscle mass." Since Pilates typically involves lighter weights at higher repetitions—and heavier weights with fewer repetitions are usually recommended to optimize muscle growth—you may not see the same gains. - Pilates is excellent for flexibility, posture, strengthening abdominal muscles, and injury prevention/recovery. In fact, pilates has been found time and time again to improve pain and disability levels.¹
- Weight training, however, it where muscle gains really happen.²
- If you're brand-new to any type of resistance training, you can certainly build some muscle through Pilates³ (reformer training offers more opportunities to build muscle than the mat), it's just not the same level as weight training.
An exciting evolution in fitness? Adding weights to your Pilates, or increasing load via tools like a megaformer. Whatever you choose, get motivated knowing that women who strength train 2-3 times a week live longer and have a 30% reduction in heart disease.⁴ +Weight, there's more | | | | | | | PRESENTED BY | | | | Glow your way into fall | |  | | Supporting your skin starts on the inside, and it can be as enjoyable as a frothy cup of cocoa (literally).

Jump into the new season with a collagen-infused Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate and feel the difference for yourself. | | | | | | | | | |  Image: Clearvue Health⁵ | 50M The amount of people dealing with chronic pain in the US every year—up to 70% of those suffering are women.⁶ Hormones, nerve density, and even bone loss may all be contributors.
10% The amount of women of reproductive age diagnosed with endometriosis. What's worse, it takes an average of 4-11 years for most women to receive one, and countless doctor's visits.⁷
3x The occurrence of women experiencing migraines, versus men. Once again, hormones are thought to be a major culprit.⁸ We asked a PT: How can women effectively treat chronic pain? Here are four simple things you can start today. | | | | | | | |  Image by Erin Scott | | | | | | Gut strength matters | | | | | Collagen peptides are rich in amino acids that support a healthy intestinal lining*—a part of the body that often suffers from stress, a poor diet, and other types of inputs like alcohol. Our beauty & gut collagen+ offers the gut support you need with grass-fed collagen, L-glutamine, and powerful antioxidants. | | | | | | | | | Cleaner & Greener The problem: Toxins like PFAS lurking in your air fryer. PFAS offer non-stick protection, but they come with risks like abnormal thyroid and hormone function, reduced immune system response, and cancer.⁹ The solution: The Our Place Wonder Oven. It's an aesthetically pleasing countertop appliance that can air-fry, bake, toast, roast, reheat, and broil and it's made with non-toxic materials and zero PFAS. The oven, crumb tray, air fryer basket, and wire rack are made of steel. The bake pan has a toxin-free ceramic non-stick coating. (If you're ready to get your own, save 10% with code MINDBODYGREEN.)
