The prompt

Copy the complete prompt (it wraps the request below so the AI returns a clean, runnable session).

Build me a 6-week mat Pilates plan, practising 3 times a week, that progresses core strength and control. Start with foundational exercises (the hundred, bridges, leg lowers, basic planks) and progress each week toward harder variations and longer holds (single-leg work, side-plank progressions, roll-ups, teasers). For each session list the week, the day, and the exercises in order with reps or a hold time in seconds.

Works with Claude, Gemini, Grok or any AI.

Why it's built this way

Pilates improves core strength-endurance, flexibility and dynamic balance, and progresses by advancing to harder variations and longer holds over the weeks. The trials are methodologically mixed, so the certainty is modest, but it's a sound low-impact way to build core control.
