Strengthening the core

Strengthening the core (also known as “core training”) involves the targeted strengthening of the deep and superficial muscles between the diaphragm and the hips (abdomen, back, pelvic floor) to increase trunk stability, improve posture, prevent back pain, and enhance athletic performance, since the core is the center of all movements and provides stability and power transfer. It’s not just about the abdominal muscles, but about the interaction of entire muscle chains to achieve holistic stability and control.
