The 9 Best Move With Nicole Pilates Workouts On YouTube

To get your workout done in a flash, try this 10-minute HIIT-style Pilates routine. It includes 10 different exercises that last 45 seconds each with a 15-second break in between. McPherson starts off with a series of stretches to warm up your body and spine before jumping into squats, glute kicks, and the classic Pilates one hundreds.

If you’re looking for a beginner-friendly workout, give this a click. The routine may be slow and simple, but it features challenging moves that work your glutes, core, and arms. You’ll do small isolation moves to target your glutes, a few twisty side planks for your core, and a round of one hundreds before doing a nice cooldown.

Roll out your mat and try this slow routine that’s perfect for the early morning hours when you aren’t quite awake yet. It starts off with a bridge pose to warm up your spine before easing into gentle ab work, leg stretches, and leg circles. You’ll end with cat-cows and a peaceful seated pose where McPherson encourages you to think of three things you’re grateful for.

This routine has just 10 exercises — like tricep presses, lunges, and mountain climbers — that you’ll repeat twice for a 20-minute workout. It’s another HIIT-style routine, so you do each move for 45 seconds on and 15 seconds off so your heart rate goes up while you work your muscles. For a challenge, McPherson suggests adding a mini resistance band around your thighs or arms to really feel the burn.

For a slightly longer workout, go for this 30-minute beginner-friendly Pilates sesh. You don’t need any equipment — just yourself and a mat. One thing about McPherson? She’s great at guiding you through each move while also reminding you two breathe as you go. Expect to move through exercises like bird dogs and lifted clamshells.

Intermediate and advanced Pilates lovers can try this 30-minute routine. It features a slow-burning ab series with lots of movement, side plank crunches that require a ton of stability, and tiny leg pulses that’ll set your glutes on fire — in a good way.

If you’re low on energy but still want to move your body, go for this 35-minute routine featuring extra-gentle moves. You’ll start by lying back in a comfy pose as McPherson encourages you to take deep breaths. Add in some stretches, a slow round of oblique crunches, and side-lying leg lifts for a workout you can do without ever standing up.

This class begins with yoga-style stretches before a round of squats, heel lifts, and other small movements designed to isolate muscles you didn’t even know you had. Remember, Pilates isn’t about big movements but tiny, controlled ones that you repeat till it burns. Focus on doing each exercise slowly and with control, and you’ll make the most of your time on the mat.

McPherson’s 50-minute full-body workout will have you move through sweeping crunches that target your ab muscles, some clamshells for hip strength and mobility, and swimmers for back strength. Stick around for the cool down at the end and you’ll be ready to take on the day.
