How to Find the Best Core Stability Exercises

By Thaya Kareeson

Core Stability Exercises are often confused with or mistakenly reduced to abdominal exercises. Mostly this is because strong, sexy "6-pack ABS" have been marketed into a major symbol for fitness and attractiveness for both man and women.

A proper core stability exercise routine should activate a larger set muscles. Choosing the right routine to improve your core stability can improve general fitness, improve athletic performance, and reduce back pain.

Generally what does the word "core" mean? Core stability exercises help strengthen all the muscles that make up the torso of your body. Stronger torso provide more support for natural day-to-day body movements and help prevent back and neck injuries from repetitively performing these day-to-day movements.

A strong torso is required to support strong arms and legs. Movements from strong arms and legs are not as effective without good base support for a strong torso. Because of this, core stability exercises are extremely important for improving competitive edge in any competitive sport.

So how can you go about building and maintaining your core stability?

Core exercise variation is key to achieving the best results. Some core exercises can be done without using equipment aid such as push-ups and crunches. Other exercises can be done using light equipment aids such as stability balls, balance balls, dumbbells, and medicine balls. You should definitely experiment with these light equipment aids as they are quite effective at delivering results.

Weight lifting machines such as machine assisted crunches, bench presses, or parallel bar dips can also be used to improve core strength, but at the cost of adding bulk. You want to develop core strength and stability, not just strength. Your best bet is to keep a good balance of these high resistance exercises with the low resistance exercises previously mentioned.

Because of the complexity of all the muscles that should be addressed with a good core stability exercise program, the training should be monitored by an experienced trainer for best results. Considering the goals for the training as well as personal preferences that can be discovered in the program can be a major long term success factor. - 17268
