🔥 TRAINER TIP TUESDAY: If you think core training means doing 100 crunches… think again!
Your core isn’t just your abs. A strong core helps with balance, posture, stability, lifting, and everyday movement — especially as we get older.
Here’s today’s Core Circuit 👇
1. Kneeling Around-the-World to Catch
Start kneeling and move the weight around your body, catching and controlling it.
👉 Focus: core stability, coordination & control.
2. Bent-Knee Sandbag Crunch
Keep the knees bent as you perform a controlled weighted crunch.
👉 Focus: abdominal strength. Keep it slow — don’t use momentum.
3. Single-Leg Straight/Bent Reach
One leg stays straight, the other bent. Reach your hands toward the straight leg.
👉 Focus: abs, hip control & unilateral core strength. Switch sides.
4. Arms-Out Twist — Down & Up
Keep your arms extended as you rotate down and then twist back up.
👉 Focus: rotational core strength and obliques. Rotate through your torso with control.
5. Kneeling Side Plank + Hip Lift
Set up in a modified side plank with your bottom knee down, then lower and lift your hips.
👉 Focus: obliques, lateral core & hip stability. Switch sides.
💡 Trainer Tip: Your core’s job isn’t only to create movement — it’s also there to resist unwanted movement and keep your body stable. That’s why we train it in different positions and directions.
