.r.emember that your weaknesses are just things you haven't worked on enough. . In the fitness industry as well as in athletics, pro sport, yoga & rehabilitation services the most common mistake is that the core is not given enough focus. . Every muscle in the body is connected to bone via tendon, tendon sheath and fascia. Each bone of the appendage eventually articulates with the spine. The spine provides stability, integrity and directs gravitational forces towards the ground through the legs as well enables or restricts movement. The functional core wraps each joint and articulation around the spine. . Therefore when training one should always start with core stability, which, coupled with functional mobility, begets true functional core strength. Core strength facilitates real strength and from here, power & speed are possible, injury is avoided and spectacular balance is a biproduct. . Try this on for size; BOSU Arabesque and karate kid.
