Join Christine for this All Levels class on back health and core stability. We talk about "engaging our core", "pulling belly button to spine" all the time, but what does that really mean and why do we do it?? I go over function and mechanics of the Transverse Abdominis! muscle for the first 5 minutes, so feel free to skip if you want to get right to the exercises. If you want to exercise your brain, join me for the discussion and I would love to hear your comments after class.
Equipment: 1 light weight, 1 heavier weight, strap for stretching (all optional)
Difficulty: 4-6/10, modifications offered to make easier or more difficult
