CORE STRENGTH
Oct 08, 2020First, a public service announcement: A “strong core” does not mean “six pack abs”. It could include them but your rectus abdominus is NOT the be-all, end-all indicators for whether you’re core-strong.
๐ช๐ผ Your shoulders integrate to your side and back core
๐ช๐ผ Strong shoulders are integral to having a well-rounded, strong core!
๐ช๐ผ In this photo, I am prepping my shoulders before stepping back in to a forearm plank
๐ช๐ผ In Retrain Back Pain we mindfully integrate shoulder-to-core-to-hips
๐ช๐ผ We train the diagonal, front and back myofascial slings, to create tension and to build strength
๐We train the struts and suspenders that bridge movement and mobility for your spine.
๐๐ฝโ๏ธ You may end up with muscles that show or...you might not
๐๐ปIt’s all okay!
๐๐ฝโ๏ธ Rippley muscles are not my primary concern for you
๐ฏ Focus on integrity of movement
๐ฏ Focus on living pain-free
