In regards to core training, I try to incorporate the medicine ball whenever possible. As a baseball player, there is a lot of twisting and turning that I will do. Keeping my abs strong is as important as anything else.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have a series of exercises in which I do a lot of core. I enjoy an ab workout. I practice every day and do many different types.
I do abs every day: regular, weighted crunches and sit-ups every other day, then my obliques and my sides on the alternating day. So I'm working my core every day.
Core strengthening is key to everything. It's not just about the way I look, but about stabilizing my body so I can perform better on stage.
Balancing is good to isolate the abs.
I'm a big fan of spinning and yoga. To strengthen my core, kick-boxing is really effective. The resistance tones everything, and it's a great stress reliever.
All physical activity begins with the body's core. I maintain the strength in my core so that I can jump, run, start, stop, and accelerate at the highest levels.
There are a lot of different beliefs for tightening up your core. I think just being conscious of it and being aware to engage your muscles will help any woman's tummy get in shape.
My workouts include aerobic exercise for a healthy cardiovascular system; strength training to maintain muscle tone and bone density; core strength exercise for a stable mid-section; and stretching to maintain mobility.
I've been practicing for a while now and physically trying to get in better shape as well after the injuries.
I hate all the core stuff. That's why I have to have a trainer. That's the only way I'm going to do the abs work.
