After nearly a month of daily training, a Massachusetts woman who tried the 28-day Wall Pilates challenge is reporting surprising results. Torrance Brown smiles as he heads into the final workout of his 28-day challenge with trainer Regina Hayes at the West Roxbury YMCA. “I feel great. I feel great. It’s fun,” Brown said. The big question is whether it will work out, Brown said, but “I think he’s a great starter. I think it gives us a lot of options.” Brown is a five-time champion with the women’s professional football team, the Boston Renegades. She knows how hard she works, but she says this challenge was an adjustment. “I like different movements that I haven’t done before, so I’ve learned a lot. I feel like I’m softer than I was before,” said Regina Hayes, Torrance’s trainer. Four weeks later, he took out the measuring tape again to take Brown’s final measurements. “The chest was consistent throughout. The abdomen was definitely down an inch. And the hips, the widest part of the hips, were down exactly an inch. And the individual thighs were just under an inch. ” My arms lost just over half an inch and my waist lost about an inch and a half. ” says Hayes. “Do you consider this a success?” “Oh, certainly,” Hayes said. Overall, I lost 4.5 inches in 28 days. “Oh, it’s definitely worth it not to eat candy. I like candy. I’ll take it,” Brown said. This came as a surprise to Regina, who wasn’t quite sure if her social media trends would produce real results. “Are you a believer?” we asked. “I’m going to take a tough stance. I do it because I think anything that gets people up and moving can do wonders for the body,” Hayes said. She agrees with the name Wall Pilates. “By my standards, it’s not Pilates. There’s no queuing. But they’re good general exercises,” Hayes said. Torrance agrees, and she’s now feeling inspired to try another challenge from the same thing. “I really want to try something somatic. So there are a few ways that I would like to try it in the future. So, yeah, I’ll continue,” Brown says.

Torrance Brown smiles as he heads into the final workout of his 28-day challenge with trainer Regina Hayes at the West Roxbury YMCA.
“I feel great. I feel great. It’s fun,” Brown said.
The big question is, does it work?
“I think he’s a great starter. I think he gives us a lot of options,” Coach Brown said.
Brown is a five-time champion with the women’s professional football team, the Boston Renegades. She knows how to approach her job, but she says this challenge was an adjustment.
“I like doing different movements that I’ve never done before, so I learned a lot. I feel like I’m more flexible than stretching that I’ve ever done before. And I like doing different movements that I’ve never done before. “I think it’s gotten a little bit better,” Brown says.
Torrance trainer Regina Hayes pulled out the measuring tape again four weeks later to take Brown’s final measurements.
“The chest was consistent throughout. The abdomen was definitely down an inch. And the hips, the widest part of the hips, were down exactly an inch. And the individual thighs were just under an inch. “My arms lost just over half an inch and my waist lost about 1.5 inches,” Hayes said.
“Do you consider this a success?” we asked
“Oh, sure,” Hayes said.
Overall, I lost 4.5 inches in 28 days.
“Oh, it’s definitely better not to have candy. I like candy, so I’ll give it to you,” Brown says.
This came as a surprise to Regina, who had never believed that social media trends were producing real results.
“Are you a believer?” we asked.
“I’m going to take a tough stance because I think anything that energizes people and moves their bodies can have great benefits for the body,” Hayes said.
One thing Hayes disagreed with was the name Wall Pilates.
“By my standards, it’s not Pilates. There’s no queuing. But they’re good general exercises,” Hayes said.
Torrance agrees and is now looking forward to another challenge with the same app.
“I really want to try the somatic stuff, so there are a few ways that I’d like to try it in the future. So, yeah, I’ll keep going,” Brown says.
