A 30-Minute Full-Body Pilates Workout Created by Instructor Isa Welly

Ready to jump aboard the Pilates workout train? There's a reason this exercise method is a favorite among celebrities and trainers alike: it's generally low-impact and beginner-friendly but offers tons of benefits, from building a better core connection and improving posture to reducing lower back pain.

Try it with this full-body, at-home Pilates workout created by instructor Isa Welly. This routine will wake up muscles all over your body and leave you feeling stronger and more balanced in just 10 simple moves. It should take you about 15 minutes total; you're meant to perform the circuit twice for a 30-minute workout, but you can stick to just once if you're short on time or are feeling like an exercise snack.

This particular at-home Pilates workout strengthens your core, upper-body, lower-body, and back muscles, but will also improve flexibility, posture, and alignment, Welly says. All that, and without any equipment — making this a great at-home Pilates workout even if you don't own any equipment or a fancy reformer machine.

As always, listen to your body, do as much as you can, take breaks when you need, and don't forget to breathe deeply. Ready? You're about to fall in love with Pilates.
