It's training day today.

It's been a little more than a year since I started attending this Pilates studio.

I thought I'd film today's session.

(First up is to check my balance for the day)

(10 years after I started drumming,)

(I had a herniated disc when I was 25.)

(I couldn't move my body how I wanted to.)

(I began considering building up my body.)

(Still, I never stopped playing concerts)

(and continued to do band activities.)

(I don't know if that was the right choice,)

(but I'm glad that I didn't give up.)

(Treatment and rehab seemed endless,)

(but the pain went away)

(and the small things that accumulated)

(made me think that I did see proper results in the end.)

(Although you're not rewarded for everything you do,)

(I want to do what I can do.)

(That goes for the band and for training.)

(Being able to make it this far)

(is because of what I've felt.)

When you're playing the drums,

it's like, "Wow, your lower back and hip joints are really solid."

Depending on the job you have, they can really differ [between people].

(I'm always cheered up by my instructor's positivity♡)

(Is there anything that you like or are continuing to do)

(right now?)

(I think it's fine if you do or if you don't.)

(It'd be nice if we could each live our lives,)

(changing and staying the same)

(while also taking detours.)

-It's a lot easier to breathe after not having to wear a mask.
-Right?

Stretch your legs slowly and breathe in.

-
-Oh, really?

Apparently it smells the same as hard water.

-It's like, how did I see it before?
-Yeah.

-This is working my abs and spine, right?
-Yes.

It's practice for standing up straight.

Your head's not moving forward.

I get asked this:

What's the difference between yoga and Pilates?

That's something you'd need to ask an instructor!

Nice.

You're learning to make the hip joints tense.

-I'm not good at those exercises.
-Oh, yeah, we can take some out.

A while ago when you'd do them,

-you dropped this Pilates ring a lot of times, right?
-Yeah.

-This now is the result of about a year and three months of work.
-Yeah.

(I've grown)

Yes. Bend from the hip.

Yes, now lift up from below.

Nice!

Keep it like this, and now lower yourself down.

-Pilates is the best thing.
-Really? Thank you!

It's the best.

Okay. Go drink some water.

I don't know what this is filming.

Put your left foot here,

and now put your right foot behind you.

Just like that.

Can you tell that this part is being used?

Do that five times and breathe.

Put your left knee a little more forward.

A little more. More. More. Right there!

Return slowly.

-You good?
-Yes.

Put your knee back.

-Isn't this easy to do?
-Yes, this way is easier.

Okay, perfect.

(We continued to do diffferent things)

(Fun and exhausting ☑)

Raise your knee.

-Doesn't your shoulder area feel better?
-Yeah.

Grab the back of your thigh and slowly sit up.

-That was fast.
-Right?

Breathe in through your nose and exhale when you stand back up.

Nice! Now go on your tiptoes.

Make a circle with your right arm.

Perfect! That's all for today.

Thank you! Good work!

(Thank you very much♡)

Thank you!

Today's lesson is done!

An hour goes by in no time when you're focused.

I had my lesson while having fun talking with my instructor.

It's so peaceful.

Once or twice every week,

I've been coming here for the past year and three months.

I think my body has changed a lot.

My balance has improved as well.

I can now tell when something might be a little off

and adjust it by coming to the studio,

which is why I think my drumming's also in good shape right now.

Pilates is how I keep my mind and body healthy.

I'll keep working hard.

Isn't it better to say what changed?

What's changed?

First, I think my posture has really improved.

I can tell in photos.

I was told that by a promoter I hadn't seen in a while.

I think there are enough changes that people can tell for themselves.

That's what I've been thinking lately.

Also...

I think that the fact that I continue to do Pilates

is a good luck charm when I perform live.

Also, it's fun to wear new activewear.

I think it lifts and changes my mood tremendously.
⠀
(What you wear is important♡)

Today I'm wearing a light blue set that my instructor picked out.

I really like it.

It's summer wear.

Also, how about talking about the differences between yoga and Pilates?

Ah, I often get asked that the differences are.

There are many differences between yoga and Pilates,

but one major difference that is easy to understand

is whether or not the exercise is done on a machine.

She taught me that earlier.

I've never done yoga before, but yoga is yoga,

and I think there are many good things about yoga,

such as being soothing and relaxing.

I've been to a lot of gyms

and I've been to different Pilates studios.

After doing various training methods at different places,

I've finally found a studio, an instructor, and a lesson cycle that suits me.

Even with the same training method,

I think there are people and studios that suit each other.

I also thought that it was really important to go to several places and try them out.

I will continue to enjoy training

so that I can keep putting on good shows!
(Concerts are my top motivation)

That's it for today's video about my training.

It's also a vlog that feels like a memo of progress.

I wanted to have a record of my current body and lessons,

which is why I decided to film this.

I'd be happy if you had fun watching it!

Thank you so much for watching until the end!

That's it for today!

Bye bye!

Thank you so much!
