If you are new to our core strengthening routines, please take a few minutes to read the background information contained with the September routine:
Core Strengthening 2018 September
The October routine concerns another critical state of the core segment, that being a healthy spinal column. One of the basic functions of core musculature is to protect the spinal column from unhealthy loads but the column must itself have a healthy range of motion to begin with. Too much sitting and insufficient activity tightens joints and soft tissues. The routine involves performing a staple of Yoga practice, the sun salutation A-version. This version introduces simple standing and bridging positions with variations of a neutral, flexed and extended spine. Controlled, easy breathing is necessary throughout. Be kind to your body and work within safe limits.
There is a link on the page to an excellent video with coaching pointers.
