New to Pilates? This beginner workout is a great starting point to strengthen your entire body

A woman squatting and reaching her arms up overhead in her living room.

Pilates is all the rage – and for good reason. Not only can it deliver a powerful full-body workout and build solid core strength, it’s also excellent for improving posture and even melting away stress. If you’re curious, but not quite ready to dive into an in-person class, Pilates instructor Katy Bath has shared a beginner-friendly, mat-based routine that’s perfect for trying at home.

This simple yet effective routine will target your core, glutes, arms, and back using nothing but your body weight. It’s ideal if you’re looking to strengthen your muscles, improve stability, and boost your mobility. Plus, because it’s low-impact, it’s gentle on the joints, making it a great option whether you're easing back into exercise or trying something completely new.
