Share your Pilates results pictures

I now have an hour for lunch at my job. So I will be doing Pilates videos 5x a week 30-45min sessions. Can anyone share their results they got from doing Pilates? Also how soon will I start seeing results?
Thank you in advance.

I have no idea how effective pilates might be for building muscle, but keep in mind that whether or not you "see" the results has more to do with body fat % and not the exercise.

I do not have pics, but I did Pilates after my first baby ten years ago. I am convinced that Pilates is how I managed to get rid of the baby "bump" completely. Plus it really brought back my muscle definition. Pretty sure it's what helped me get my figure back all those years ago.

I do other things now though, but I still have my Pilates DVD's as well.

I've just started Pilates to compliment my work outs at the gym.
I'd like to hear about/see some results as well.
I believe it can improve core strength and flexibility.

what's the difference between pilates and yoga?

Yoga is a form of eastern meditation that involves breath and body work and Pilates is a core strengthening program. Pilates borrows a lot from yoga.

I've been doing pilates 3x a week for about a month now, along with circuit training and running, and I have to say I've really noticed an increase in strength that seems to have happened faster than with circuit training. I don't have photos but I really think it's made a visible difference to my body as well.

I've been doing pilates 4x a week for 3+ years. While I'm strong and have good stamina, without cardio and proper diet you won't see any results. It's a great combo to cardio and I use it as my weight training. Enjoy
