“Even now, at 46, I feel super strong,” — Gisele Bündchen says these 5 “slow, intentional” Pilates exercises built her core
Gisele Bündchen swears by this simple ab circuit to build her core.
Fitness advocate and supermodel Gisele Bündchen recently shared a video on her Instagram demonstrating five Pilates exercises that have helped her maintain a strong core, even at the age of 45. The exercises, which focus on the deep core muscles and pelvic floor, require no additional equipment but recommend using a yoga mat for added comfort.
Gisele began with sets of five reps for each exercise, progressing to sets of ten and now performing sets of twenty. The exercises, which include bear plank lift, bear plank knee tap, bear plank twist, bear plank toe tap, and bear plank knee drive, are designed to engage the core while keeping the spine neutral, protecting the lower back from injury.
Gisele credits these exercises for helping her rebuild her core after the birth of her third child and advises others to listen to their bodies and consult with healthcare providers before attempting new workouts.
