Danish term or phrase: påvirke (i den her kontekst)
Toptunet mave- og rygtræning

Pilates på måtte er primært mave og rygtræning. Og mave- og rygtræning er mere vigtig i dag end nogen sinde før. Vi bevæger os nemlig mindre og mindre i vores dagligdag. Al bevægelse kræver aktivitet i musklerne omkring rygsøjlen.
Det betyder, at når vi ikke er fysisk aktive, ***bliver musklerne i mave og ryg ikke påvirket så meget***.

Should I translate the last piece as 'are not so much affected'? I do not think a literal translation fits here, but I would be happy to know what you think. Translation is into Spanish but I am posting here due to time constraints. Ideas both in English or Danish are welcome!

Tusind tak!

Toned


Explanation:
I know this is not a literal rendition of "påvirke" but it strikes me that it means "tone" in this context. Exercise keeps your muscles "toned".
