Day 2 · 5 Day Express Challenge
Connect to your core with a quick, focused Pilates flow. Start with seated C-curves and waist rotations, then move into controlled leg extensions, cross-body crunches and slow bicycles. Each movement builds on the last, bringing your lower abs and waist into the work.
Equipment: Mat. Optional 1 lb ankle weights; the full class can also be done with body weight.
Enjoy it on its own when you are short on time, or pair it with another class for a longer session.
