‘Lazy girl’ Pilates sculpts four areas of your body at once

Who knew that being “lazy” could look so good?

A fitness influencer on TikTok has shared her “lazy girl Pilates pose” that she promises can sculpt four muscle groups at once — in the comfort of your home.

Abby, known as @abbsfar on the platform, posted a video to share her accessible workout technique.

Pilates was created in the 1920s by physical trainer Joseph Pilates, as a rehabilitation tool for soldiers returning from war, and for dancers to tone their bodies and heal aches and pains, according to MedicineNet. Since then, Pilates has become a widely popular, full-body exercise method, particularly among women who prefer low-impact workouts that focus on improving strength and flexibility, while also soothing mental stress, research has shown.

As for Abby’s “lazy girl” routine — the California fitness fan starts by strapping-on ankle weights and lying flat on her back on a cushioned mat with one knee bent and her hips raised in the air.

She pointed lifted her other leg while pointing her foot and bringing it to a 90-degree angle over her body and then slowly brought it back down stopping right before it hits the ground, hovering the leg a few inches above the mat.

Abby then repeated the move a few more times in a row.

“Sculpt your upper body, abs, booty, and legs all in one. Option to add ankle weights to spice it up,” the text on the video read.

In a follow-up video, Abby posted a “lazy girl” Pilates ab routine that includes three exercises meant to be done 10 times each per side, and repeat the entire series three times for a full ab workout, she explained in the caption.
