(For me personally, it was the2022 Met Galawhen Lori Harveycredited the Pilatesfor her immaculately toned abs).
Now, we wouldnt necessarily call this a replacement.
Instead, think of it rather as an elevated take on a classic.

Say hello to hot Pilates.
Also, the heat is an additional challenge that is novel.
What Is Hot Pilates?
When you take hot Pilates, you get the added benefit from the infrared heat.
The excessive sweating and high temperatures may cause dehydration and an increased risk of fainting.
If you have medical issues, be sure to get clearance from your doctors before starting, she says.
Hot Pilates, by comparison, depends on your body to give you the same tension.
It allows for simple movements that leverage your own body weight, he explains.
But which one is better for you health-wise?
Thats just dependent on personal preference and capabilities.
Regardless of what bang out of Pilates you opt for, Dr. Colvin says youll experience similar results.
All forms of Pilates are geared towards increasing core strength, flexibility, and balance, she says.
What to Expect in a Class
Most obvious is that you could expect to sweat it out.
The heat provides an added bonus [of] feeling detoxified and rejuvenated, says Kaylin.
[And] dont be surprised if your abs are a little sore the next day.
Kaylin says movements will be slow and controlled, with a fast pace accompanied by a fun playlist.
Dr. Colvin recommends arriving early to acclimate to the heat before class starts.
She also emphasizes the importance of hydrating before, during, and after a session.
Wearing breathable fabric that wicks moisture away from your skin will also help.
Its at the very least worth looking into.
Just give it a try.
