"If you don't have any sliders, you can use a dishcloth on a slipper floor or put on a pair of socks," says Pilates instructor Chloe De Winter. Basically, as long as your socks don't have any grippers on the bottom—and you're not working on carpet!—you should be able to slide around with ease and reap the same benefits as an actual slider disc provides.
From getting a reformer-like Pilates workout to making your HIIT sweat seshes even more challenging, these are the best slider workouts with socks.
