The secret to success with core strength training is to stabilize you core before and during each exercise. Stabilizing the core is also called, “activating the core,” “contracting the core,” “engaging the core” and “tightening the core.” But, whatever it is called, it all refers to the same thing: maintaining a “drawn in” core during each and every exercise.
To “draw in” the core, you simply draw in (suck in) your belly button towards your spine. However, be careful not to hold your breath. With your core stabilized, you should still be able to breathe normally.
Activating your core will help stabilize your body and put it in proper alignment for your workout. It will also make the exercises more effective because each muscle will be able to be engaged properly.
You don’t have to be exercising to activate your core. You can do it throughout the day as you are working or walking to help yourself maintain good posture and improve your core muscle strength. It’ a great way to stay focused on good posture regardless of what you are doing.
So, straighten up, stop slouching, and use the exercises below to fire up your core and build a rock-solid body!
