Core Stability Exercises

So you want to strengthen your core? This article will show you how to do that with three core stability exercises. First, I guess it would help to know exactly what the core is.

The core is everything below the neck and above the waist and the hips. Your abs, mid and lower back, are all included in the core. Because the muscles of your trunk and torso (core) stabilize the spine it is very important to have an exercise program that is safe and that works, like the one I will share with you in just a moment.

In some cases, chronic back pain has been successfully treated by developing and stabilizing core muscles. Now I am not saying that all back pain can be treated this way, but in some cases, it has help. You should certainly see your doctor before starting any no workout program.

Most people that I have talked to believed that strong abs equal strong core, that is not always the case. Abdominal work alone is not enough.

The core consists of several different muscles that help stabilize the torso. These core stability exercises targets all the muscle groups, and will give you strong core muscles and ripped abs.

The first exercise you will need a medicine ball, if you do not have one they are not expensive and you can find them in almost any large store like wal-mart, and stores like that. For now, if you do not have on you can still this exercise without one.

Get down into a modified push up position but instead of your hand being on the floor rest on your forearms and have your toes balanced on the medicine ball. Hold your abs in tight for 45 seconds, and then rest for a minute. Repeat this 3 or 4 times.

The second exercise is called the elbow to Knee Bridge; it is very simple to do. Get back down in a push up position, then life your right foot and left hand off the floor. Pull your right knee forward and left elbow back until they touch each other. Do 3 sets of 8 reps.

The third and final exercise is the v-up. Lie down on your back with legs and arms extended keep them straight. Tighten your abs and raise your hands and feet toward one another, and then rest for a minute. Three sets of 10 reps.
