I tried this 15-minute Pilates workout and it’s great for your deep core and lower back

A woman doing Pilates.

While it can be very satisfying to power through a workout at a fast pace, when it comes to your core sessions, sticking to slow and controlled movements can be as or even more effective in building strength.

Control is a central element of Pilates workouts in particular, with the breath used to help guide you through movements and a constant focus on engaging the right muscles to drive each exercise. It’s a great way to work your deep core muscles and build functional strength that acts as the foundation for your everyday movements.
