Is there an alternative to Pilates with the same results?

Question by Sandra: Is there an alternative to Pilates with the same results?
Hello. I’m trying to find a good cardio workout that provides the same benefits of Pilates…but isn’t actually Pilates. In my body shaping class at school, we did Pilates so much that I wanted to kill Joseph Pilates (and the person who thought of Windsor Pilates as well). Is there anything I can do besides Pilates (and yoga) that focuses on building core muscles? I’m trying to lose weight and I already committ to at least 45 minutes of exercise daily (running or biking). I just need this for more fitness and getting toned for personal reasons.

Plyometrics is a good workout, its pretty much “explosive training” say you take a medicine ball, find a brick wall, and throw it against it as hard as you can like a chest pass with a basketball. thatll work your core muscles pretty good. theres a whole bunch of exercises like that, just gotta look them up
