Low Abs + Posture Focus [All Levels]

Technique Focus: Posture • 12m

In this workout, we're targeting our low abs with a dynamic Pilates sequence that includes roll-ups, leg lifts and the hundred. Your low abs help with waist-area stability, helping you avoid leaning or tilting your upper body on stage. Because when we work our low abs, we also indirectly work out quads (you might also feel it in your hip flexors), we've added in some complementary stretches as well.

Level: All Levels
What You Need: Mat
Exercise Credit: Fuse Pilates, Classical Pilates
