Video 529 | Core Foundations Day 1 (30 mins) with Lauren Eirk
Core Strength

25-Mar-2024
Welcome to a full week of trunk rotation workouts. In mechanics, we call this the transverse plane. As we begin our week, it is important that all our muscles are activated and responsive. For this reason, we are starting with isometrics!
Isometrics can improve range of motion, reduce pain, and help us to uncover your weak areas. Anytime during this workout, if you feel tight or shakey, make sure to push extremely light!! You can do this video over and over as you move through this series to reset. We will perform seven core rotation isometrics with variations using a sponge ball and TheraBand as resistance. These will be a big part of the workout on day 2, so take your time and be gentle!
