Do you often encounter some issues with balance, stability, or posture in your day-to-day life? Is your back pain making your life miserable? If your answer is ‘Yes’ & every endeavor to solve these problems fails, then what you need to do is some core stability exercises.
These exercises are not only helpful for developing a strong core that can protect your spine, reduce your back pain, enhance your movement patterns & improve your balance, strength, or posture. They are also very much crucial for your overall everyday life, health & well-being.
One should merely avoid using the momentum & conduct each of the core workouts with awareness. By following this, his/her core will remain braced & engaged. But what are the best core stability workouts? Well! Here are they:
1. Stability Ball Deadbugs Workout:
The focus of this exercise must be on your core stability. First, lie down on your back. Erect your knees (90 degrees). Settle a stability ball within your lower legs. Now, squeeze it with the support of all of your limbs. Keeping your core engaged, headway your navel towards your spine. Straighten your limbs. Keeping your knees at 90 degrees, return to center. Do this until you finish ten reps on each individual side.
2. Forearm Plank (Using Toe Taps) Workout:
The emphasis of this activity must be on your core stability as well as hip strength. Pose your body such that it resembles a forearm plank. Touch your feet to the floor. Alternate your lateral toe taps such that your right foot tugs away from your body & after touching the floor, withdraws to the center. Do the same with your left leg. Do this until you finish ten reps on each unique leg. You can make this exercise more challenging by using a BOSU with it.
3. BOSU Bird Dog Workout:
Wondering what’s the point of emphasis for this workout? It’s your body’s core stability! For performing this exercise, lay your right knee over a dome’s center. Both of your hands must be placed on the floor just below your shoulders. Now unbend your left leg such that it extends behind you & from there, to your hip height. Your feet must be bent.
Lift your right arm such that it reaches your shoulder height. Your thumb must face the ceiling. Do this for 20 seconds & after that repeat the same with your left arm. You may keep on switching sides till you can do it.
4. Single-Legged Deadlift Workout:
The core point for this workout is none other than the posterior strength. Gripping dumbbells in both hands, stand upright such that your feet & hip stay a few distances apart. Now, put up your right foot from the floor & hinge your pelvis so that it drifts over your left leg’s top.
Your head & foot must do the counterbalancing act. When your body becomes parallel to the footing, it is termed as the lowest hinging point. Your pelvis should be very much neutral. Repeat the same steps for the opposite leg. Each leg must fulfill twelve repetitions.
Wrapping Up:
So, which of the above core exercises have you planned to do? Whichever it may be, do it consciously & with proper care. Good luck!
