What is mat pilates?
The mat pilates exercise routine is performed on the ground using an exercise mat. The key to performing mat pilates exercises well is to focus on breathing. The exercises in mat pilates focus on strengthening the muscles of the hips, back, abdominals, and glutes (what is known in pilates as the powerhouse.)
