"  Pilates, an exercise system that focuses on the core postural muscles, is not only a full-body toning routine that improves flexibility and strength\u2014it&amp;#039;s a system of exercise that teaches awareness of breath and alignment of the spine. It can be practiced in conjunction with an intensive cardio routine (such as running or swimming); or, when the moves are performed in a series, it can act as a complete cardiovascular workout of its own. Today, follow Expert Village trainer Carol Ann as she demonstrates the plank, a simple balance exercise, which forces you to control momentum with your abs, while simultaneously massaging your spine and assisting with balance development. There are no fancy props or machines necessary\u2014all you need is a little bit of motivation and just over a minute to do the move!
