why is CORE conditioning so important?

The "CORE" is at the origin of all movement. 


Walking, running, cycling, paddling, rowing, lifting weights, playing tennis or paddle or pickle ball.   Even reaching for a heavy bowl in your cabinet, or lifting up the laundry basket.

 

Maintaining proper core strength will reduce pain & prevent injury.  ~ this falls in line with my "tripping in clogs story".....

 

One day, while putting groceries away, I tripped in my garage and fell right on my butt!  When I got up, I was sure that I hurt my hip, back or shoulder, but what truly ached for several days afterward was the CORE muscles.  The core will help you to stay fit & balanced....


Ultimately, building CORE strength is simply functional training.


It's not just a situp.


It's the whole body.


It's all connected!!
