Get strong abs like Ananya Panday: Try these 5 pilates exercises

Ananya Panday emphasizes the importance of a fit and healthy lifestyle, even when not in front of the camera. Recently, fitness instructor Namrata Purohit shared a glimpse of the actress’s Pilates session on Instagram, showcasing Ananya performing various exercises on a body reformer machine.

Among these was a push-up variation to strengthen the core and ton the abs. For those aspiring to achieve similar results, here are some effective Pilates exercises to incorporate into a fitness routine.

The Hundred is a classic Pilates move that targets the abdominals and obliques. To begin, lie on your back with your legs in a tabletop position and knees bent. Engage the core, lift the shoulders and head off the mat, ensuring the lower back remains pressed against the floor. Inhale while pumping the arms sideways, repeating this for several counts before relaxing.

For the Single Leg Stretch, lie on your back and bring both knees to your chest. Lift your head, neck, and shoulders off the mat while lightly holding your thighs. Inhale as you extend one leg straight, hovering just above the floor, then exhale and switch legs, continuing this alternating motion several times before relaxing.

The Double Leg Stretch starts with legs raised on a tabletop and arms stretched to the sides. Simultaneously, stretch both arms and legs to form a V-shape with the body. Repeat this movement several times before returning to a relaxed position.

The Criss Cross is excellent for core strengthening. Lie on your back, lift your head, and twist your upper body to the right, extending your left leg while bringing your left elbow toward your right knee. Inhale to return to the center and alternate sides.

These Pilates exercises can be a valuable addition to any workout routine for those looking to enhance core strength and sculpt their abs.
