This pilates inspired core activation will leave you shaking by the end of the song. But don't worry, it's a quick song and the transitions come sooner than you think they will. Your goal here is to build up your core strength and remove the strain from your neck. For level one, keep your legs bent when pulsing through the Pilates 100. For level two, your goal is to work up to a boat position during the Pilates 100 for advanced core activation. Instinctually, you will want to speed up on your bicycle crunches. However, we are focusing on slow, controlled movements. So do your best to match the music and resist the urge to speed up. When you're propelling yourself up during sit ups, make sure your feet stay firmly on the ground so that your upper body is doing all the work. Now baby, lay on back and relax.

arms to a T
Don't underestimate this slow jam. Start off lighter than you think you need because your shoulders will be burning before the end of the first chorus. We recommend doing this one in front of a mirror or on camera so you can check your form. Follow along with the music, skip a rep if you need to ...

all the feels
With so many compound movements, this song will take a few times to get the routine down. But once you do, the focus should be on both form and repetition. Get deeper in your squats and lunges, smoother with your transitions. Try going up in weights after a few weeks once you've mastered form and...

Then You Stand
This routine is part form building, part balance and a little bit of cardio all rolled into one. You're going to want to watch this one all the way through once before you attempt it. The focus here should be on balance and isolation. Your single leg deadlifts should be slow and controlled. Remem...
