Depending on your back injury. Both Pilates and Yoga concentrate on using your core. (abdominal muscles). However, Pilates used the Transversus ab muscles more. I am an instructor, have been for several years, and was a patient as well, rehab for back injury. I found Pilates to be better for my rehab. Pilates on machines is the best way to go initially, because you use an "outside" support. Ie.. the machines. If you do Pilates or Yoga on the mat it is difficult to control certain positions that can put you in compromising poses that may actually harm your back more. Always consult with a Dr. no matter which you decide. Good Luck!!
