This 11-minute pilates workout strengthens your core
Yazan Al Khatib
A short mat routine you can do before work to build a stronger, steadier core.
Roll out a mat, set a timer for eleven minutes and move through ten slow, controlled exercises: the hundred, roll-ups, single-leg circles and a plank series.
Focus on breathing out as you work and keeping your lower back long. Quality beats speed here.
Do it three times a week for a month and you will feel the difference when you stand, lift and run.
