In this workout, my goal is to share some great plank modifications that you might wish to use to learn the basics of a full plank. Keep in mind any variations that work for you can be used throughout your Pilates journey and they are simple suggestions.
We will also review the simplest Classical Mat Pilates exercises and do a little upper body sequence to wrap it up.
Equipment:
Light Hand Weights (1-3 lbs) and a chair or an elevated surface like a bench.
