Core Conditioning-30 exercises to strengthen and improve core muscles to prevent injury and enhance performance.
By Todd Durkin, MA
Sixty percent of the power a body can generate comes from the area that extends from the hips to the diaphragm: the core “power zone.” Todd uses the Swiss and medicine balls, Bosu and power wheel to develop trunk stabilization and strength and movement speed in the core muscles. Whether your client’s goal is to be free of back pain or to improve sports performance, this course will take him or her to the next level.
