This Equipment-Free Pilates Workout Will Tone-Up Your Abs

Sometimes getting yourself to a Pilates class is near impossible–the combination of a circa $30 fee and the effort required to book a reformer machine means that there are just too many excuses not to go. So in the interests of finding clever, free ways to work out at home, we tapped New York-based Pilates guru Karen Lord to create an ab workout that anyone can follow, with zero equipment required. Roll out your mat, hit play, and get started. Your abs will thank you for it.
