Exercise(s) of the Week: 20 Core Minutes of Pilates
Wednesday November 12, 2008
20 Core Minutes is designed to strengthen your core stability muscles: the deep abdominal, back, and pelvic floor muscles. One of the best ways to challenge these muscles is to make them stabilize the trunk under unstable conditions. In this workout, we do that by reducing stabilizing contact with the floor and by using the exercise ball (non-ball options are given too).
Some exercises in this workout are intermediate level but modifications are given in the instructions for those of you who want to go through at a slightly less challenging level.

A flat stomach….Do more Pilates.
We all know to do fat burning exercise to take a few pounds off but regardless, doing Pilates absolutely gives you the core strength and feel for days after. Obliques? Try the sides on the short box!! My favorite still is Teaser and moving down half way and back up 5x. So effective!!!!
