Save this for a flat stomach ✨ I’ve been teaching Pilates for 20 years, and this is still one of my favourite 15-minute core routines when I want to challenge the abdominals and build more strength and control through the entire midsection. 🤍 All you need is a set of light dumbbells, but you can absolutely do the entire workout without weights on your mat at home. The dumbbells simply add a little extra load, so your core has to work harder to stabilise your trunk while the arms and legs move. ✨ Try this: ✨ Double Leg Extension x12 ✨ Opposite Arm + Leg x12 ✨ Roll Back Rotation x12 ✨ Pendulum x6 each side 🤍 Complete 4 rounds I’m using 1kg (2.2lb) dumbbells here. Keep the weight light enough that you can maintain control, keep the ribs connected and move slowly through every repetition. Think about gently drawing the lower stomach inward, keeping the pelvis controlled and using your deep core rather than rushing through the movements. ✨ ✨ Stronger deep core ✨ Flatter stomach ✨ Snatched waist 15 minutes. Two dumbbells. One serious core workout. 🤍 Save this for your next ab workout and follow for Pilates that actually works. ✨ #Pilates #AbWorkout #DeepCore #FlatStomach…
