To do cardio exercises more efficiently your core is needed. You can’t run faster without also building up your abdominals and back muscles. It’s all connected!

Exercise makes you happy! When we are strong we can also do more.

A strong core allows you to get up and down and all around. So when you’re chasing those little babies or big kids you can keep up!

It may seem counterintuitive that your back would feel better and stronger when you do regular ab exercises, but it’s true! Your back muscles are part of your core. When you strengthen your abs you also build more support and strength for your back. My low back pain always goes away after I do some basic Pilates ab exercises.
