Core Strengthening Exercises
HALF TURKISH GET UP
The Half Turkish Get Up offers a modified approach to the Turkish Get Up, emphasizing abs strengthening, enhancing shoulder stability, and refining trunk rotation.
HALF KNEELING BICEP CURLS
Half Kneeling Bicep Curls present an excellent variation for fortifying your arms while simultaneously enhancing core and hip stability. This exercise engages the biceps, obliques, glutes, and hamstrings effectively.
HALF KNEELING HALOS
The Half Kneeling Halo often goes unnoticed but proves highly effective in enhancing shoulder range of motion, trunk stability, and motor control. This comprehensive move engages the shoulders, arms, obliques, and glutes.
HALF KNEELING WOODCHOPS
The Half Kneeling Woodchops serve as an excellent exercise for enhancing core strength and trunk rotation. It effectively targets the obliques, back, shoulders, and hips. All you need is a single dumbbell or medicine ball to give this a try.
KNEELING FRONT/LATERAL RAISES
Engaging in Tall Kneeling Front & Lateral Raises not only develops shoulder strength but also challenges the core muscles. Alternating between front and lateral raises intensifies the need for trunk stability, effectively engaging the obliques and glutes.
PLANK WEIGHT TRANSFER
With this plank variation, your trunk and hip stability are continually challenged as the weight moves beneath you. Engage the obliques, shoulders, arms, and hips with this exercise.
QUADRUPED ROW
Quadruped Rows serve as a modified or beginner-friendly alternative to the Bentover Row exercise. They can also intensify core engagement while targeting the back. This exercise effectively strengthens the obliques, back, and arms, contributing to enhanced trunk stability.
TALL KNEELING BICEP CURLS
Engaging in the Tall Kneeling Bicep Curl enables concurrent development of arm and core strength. Throughout the curl movement, a stable core is crucial to prevent leaning backward or forward. This exercise targets the biceps, abs, obliques, glutes, and hamstrings effectively.
TALL KNEELING TRICEPS
This triceps variation not only targets the triceps but also engages the abs and glutes by stabilizing the torso throughout the exercise. It's an effective method to strengthen and build hypertrophy in the arms by working against gravity.
