10 minutes and five moves are all you need to build strength all over with this Pilates workout

A woman practices Pilates at home in her kitchen/ dining room. She is on a mat, with both hands and her right leg in contact with the floor; her arms are straight and her knee and shin lie on the ground. Her left leg is extended straight behind her. She wears a sports bra and leggings. Behind her we see a kitchen island and stools, a large window and a fridge.

I love going to the gym and lifting weights, but I'm also a recent convert to Pilates. Pilates is a low-impact form of bodyweight training that offers a myriad of benefits. The mindful movement in Pilates, which has some similarities to yoga, is a great way to improve your strength, coordination and posture.

Pilates instructor Madeleine Abeid recently shared a routine that shows how versatile Pilates can be.
