I'm a Pilates instructor - this 15-minute workout strengthens the core without a single sit-up

Woman doing 15-minute Pilates workout on yoga mat in living room.

Core strength is about more than appearances. It's great for improving posture, mobility, and even pelvic floor health, which is why Pilates has become so popular in recent years. But while millions flock to studios and online workouts, if you're short on time, you don't need to spend more than a quarter of an hour on the practice to see the benefits.

Even a quick Pilates workout at home like this one is a low-intensity, low-impact, and effective exercise. It doesn't put stress or pressure on the joints, either. All you need is one of the best thick yoga mats to get started.
