Floor-only, Pilates-inspired abs and arms in 12 minutes: slow, controlled and with no equipment.

Pamela Reif's Pilates-inspired session works abs, core, arms and back entirely on the floor, with no standing up. The pace is slow and controlled, the exercises are creative and new, and the aim is a stronger, more defined upper body and core rather than bulk. It is rated medium to advanced and runs 12 minutes.

Who Is It For?

People with some fitness experience who want a short, controlled floor workout for abs, core, arms and back.

Who Is It Not For?

Not ideal for complete beginners or anyone who wants cardio, as this is slow, controlled core and arm work on the floor.

Key Benefits

Strengthens and defines the abs, arms and back, trains the core from every angle and builds full-body tension without adding bulk.

Things to Keep in Mind

Keep your lower back supported during core work, protect your wrists and neck, and stop if you feel pain in your back or shoulders.
