Core & Abdominals
Ab workouts are not just about flat tummies and six packs. These videos are designed to build strength through your core which will help you feel strong and stable, and build overall strength and injury resilience. And yes they will help tone up your midsection too. In Pilates we use and challenge your core every time we work out - but these focused videos are great when you want to specifically focus on this area.
