The plank is one of the most versatile exercises out there. It engages the entire body and it's particularly useful for building core strength. This workout from certified Pilates instructor Katy Bath proves just how much you can do with the plank, with four variations in just eight minutes that will target your back, shoulder and mid-body muscles.
Pilates is a type of exercise that uses your body weight to engage your core and back. Unlike other types of workouts such as HIIT, Pilates encourages you to move slowly in order to increase the time your muscles are under tension.
