Top Workouts To Improve Core Strength

The core is the center of your body. It’s made up of your abdominal muscles, back muscles, and hip flexors. The core is important because it stabilizes your spine and pelvis, which helps you maintain proper posture while standing or sitting. It also helps you perform daily activities by supporting your back and abdominal muscles.

Your core is essential for protecting your spine from injury during high-intensity movements like running and jumping. In addition to helping protect your spine, a strong core gives you better balance and posture as well as improves your overall physical performance. If you’re looking for ways to improve your core strength so that you can run faster or jump higher, these are some of the best exercises for building core stability.

Plank
Side Plank
Side Plank With Leg Lift

1) Plank
Planks are considered one of the most effective exercises for strengthening the abdominals because they require stabilization from other muscle groups in order to hold the position without falling over or moving away from it during its duration (usually around 30 seconds).

2) Side Plank
A side plank is very similar to a regular plank, except that instead of lying on your back with hands on the floor, you lie on one side with one leg straight and feet together, toes lifted off the ground; other foot should be perpendicular to ground (as close to perpendicular as possible). Use arm on same side as bent leg for support; other arm should rest beside head at shoulder level with elbow bent at 90 degrees. Hold this position for 30 seconds on each side (60 seconds total).

3) Side Plank With Leg Lift
If planks are too easy for you then try doing them on one side with a leg lifted off the ground at a time; this will make them harder but still safe enough not to hurt yourself.

4) Mountain Climbers
This simple exercise is perfect for building up your core strength. Start by getting into push-up position with your legs extended and your hands on the floor about shoulder-width apart. Then bring one knee up toward your chest and return it to starting position, alternating each leg as you go. This is one rep. Do 10-15 reps per set and 3-4 sets total.

5) Plank Crunch
This variation on the traditional plank will help strengthen your obliques while giving your abs a workout too! Begin in plank position with hands directly below shoulders and toes on floor, then lift right knee up toward right elbow as you simultaneously sit back into a crunch until reaching 45 degrees or so (or as far back as possible without losing form). Hold briefly then return to starting position before repeating on opposite side, alternating between sides for 30 seconds total time (10 reps per side).
