Video: Basic Core Strengthening

December 11, 2016 //  by Mike//  4 Comments

Core strength is a hot topic in the running community and just about everywhere! Indeed, proper stability of the core is necessary to perform all of the activities we set out to do in a given day. All too often, we attempt to strengthen muscles that are not firing properly. This can lead to imbalances and compensations — not good things!

Today’s video focuses getting your core muscles firing and engaged. When this is happening consistently, then we can move on to higher level strengthening activities. If you have back pain, attempt these carefully and slowly please!

Give these a try and let me know how they go. Please share with a friend who may appreciate better core strength!
