@pilates.by.cat: Save this to flatten your lower abs 🔥 After 20 years teaching Pilates, this is still one of my favourite 10-minute deep core flows for flattening the lower stomach and cinching the waist. The roller helps you find neutral pelvis so the deep core (TA) switches on properly instead of gripping through the hip flexors and lower back. The hand weights challenge the upper abs and help knit the ribs together, while the elevated legs create long lean tone without bulky hips or thighs ✨✨ Low impact. Deep core burn. Tone without bulk 🫶🏼 🤍Star x12 🤍Double toe taps x12 🤍Dead bug x12 Repeat circuit 3 times 🤍 My ankle weights are 1kg / 2.2lbs and my hand weights are 2kg / 4.4lbs. You can absolutely do this without weights too ☺️🫶🏼 Check out the linked reel, part 2, for roller placement under the lower back if you’re trying this one, will make a huge difference! ☺️ Save this and follow for Pilates that actually works ✨ #pilates #matpilates #corestrength #pilatesinstructor #foamrollerworkout

So I have done these exercises before, but I’ve never used the roller. What is the purpose of the roller under your back?

Andrea Rocks :

question i tried this (roller under back) and felt nothing at all ----is it because i didn't use weights? (i just saw this video right now)

Just.a.girlie📚💙🌚 :

Can you make a video about how to engage our core properly?

Nicholas Witcher :

Is the foam roller a modification to make it easier/more difficult? Or would you always do it with foam roller if possible?

Lizzy ❤️ :

Where did you get your roller?

Ems 🇭🇲 :

What is the benefit of the foam roller? Does it protect your lower back to target core or does it make it harder than doing dead bugs flat on the ground?
