Pilates

Pilates, a series of exercises designed to restore inner strength literally and figuratively, uses stretching, tiny movements, and breathing to develop core strength and mobility, and sculpt the body. While it concentrates on abs, glutes, lower back, hips, and the pelvic floor, it engages muscles from head to toe. It’s more intense than yoga; supplement it with aerobic exercise for fitness.
