it would make a difference however if you can do it, I would recomend 45 min. because that will give you an extra 45 min. a week by doing only an extra 15 min. a day, plus I’ve found for some weird reason doing 45min. of pilates just works lol, however if you can only do 30min. it should be fine, that’s about all we did when I took it in school since it took so long to get out of our uniforms and into normal clothes.

I like to have a balaned workout regiment and for core strength I do pilates 2-3 times per week. Should I be doing other ab exercises in addition to this?

Your pilates exercises should be fine for now, but just remember to change up the workout every two weeks (or at least once a month) or your body will become accustomed to doing those exercises and they won’t be beneficial anymore.

Also, make sure that your core exercises include all parts of the core, not just abs. Make sure you’re working your sides and back.
