Adore Your Core

This month, we highlight a five-week focus titled “Adore Your Core”.  Each week, we’ll share a 5-minute core-strengthening video you can do at home, nutritional resources, and coaching support.

We’re focusing on Core because it is literally the center of everything you do. A strong core is critical for spinal support, balance, stability, and athletic performance, and it is also aesthetically pleasing. It is also the number one go-to for alleviating back pain and preventing injury. 

Whether gardening, playing pickleball or golf, mountain biking, or fill in the blank – everything is better when we adore our core.  Can you think of a compelling reason to love your core? 

The Stomach Series

 This week’s video focuses on the Stomach Series, a five-exercise core challenge from Joseph Pilates’ classical Mat work.  Before you know it, you’ll have all five weeks memorized!

Adore Your Core from the Inside Out

Also, since a healthy core requires a healthy gut, we’re including nutrition tips and resources that help you tune up your core from the inside out each week. Improving digestive health and reducing inflammation within the digestive tract will also help improve muscle strength and trim your waist. 

We also link Dr. Eric Berg’s video on How to Lose Belly Fat.

Make Adoring Your Core a Habit

Creating a new habit can be a challenge, no matter how beneficial. That’s why we will include resources and support to keep you focused for the next five weeks.   

This week’s tip leverages a concept known as “Habit Stacking”, made popular by James Clear in his bestselling book, Atomic Habits. 

In a nutshell, it says that the best way to make a habit stick is to link it to something you already do. For example, if you walk the dog every evening or have a daily stretch routine, do your Adore Your Core work before these activities.  Doing so will create the cue, craving, reward, and response that are necessary to build a solid habit loop.  

We’ll incorporate our video exercises into our regular classes for the next five weeks to support you in our Adore Your Core Focus.  As always, we look forward to helping you feel and look your best.
