Part 4/7:
The instructor introduces spinal movements that intricately tie into core engagement. The rotation of the shoulder girdle, along with mindful breathing, aids in releasing energy blocks in key areas around the kidneys and lymphatic system. The subtlety of these actions may seem light, but their cumulative effects on abdominal strength are profound.
Building Endurance and Strength
As the session progresses, participants transition into more demanding postures, such as high planks and squats, which test their core stability. Instructors emphasize the importance of squeezing the pelvic floor and sit bones to activate the core effectively. Repetitions in these movements help fortify the transverse abdominals, a lesser-known but crucial component of abdominal strength.
