Increase Core Strength by Improving Your Breathing
By Jacqueline Gikow, MFN Member and Movement/Health & Wellness Coach at Audacious Living NYC

"Core strength is a popular fitness buzz term, but what’s the big deal all about? Core strength is essential for all our movements. The core is a collection of muscles that stabilizes the central muscles in our torso and spine. As our body’s center, our core has the big task of holding us upright. A strong core makes everyday activities easier to do.

You might think core training is all about lying on a yoga mat doing interminable “crunches.” But there’s way more to core training than aiming for a flat tummy or a six-pack."
