CORE STABILITY
What is the Core:
The diagrams represent the large muscle groups involved in producing a stable core (global muscles), however, there are many small muscles around the vertebra which help to produce stability at each vertebrae of your spine (Local muscles).
This makes stability of the spine a challenging task because the muscle groups act over many joints; these muscles have different roles depending upon the task.
Research has indicated that no single muscle group is superior in stabilising the spine and it suggests that a global approach may be the most beneficial approach to increase ‘Core Stability’.
