Pilates for sure! You keep your core engaged during movements and not only your abs, but it really helps with the legs, butt and back muscles. A good instructor will work you hard, but not wear you out. It's really centering. At first it might be hard to balance, but you'll get it after a couple times or less.I've been doing it and feel muscles that I didn't even know I had! I notice that my lower, lower abs get a workout and the upper back, too. It seriously makes me feel good to go!
