We often think of core training as good for reducing pain​

As a registered Kinesiologist and C-IAYT Yoga Therapist Trainer, ​​I hear a lot about core training. ​​Particularly that core training is the thing that will help reduce pain and improve posture. ​This isn’t wrong. ​And yet, for many people their posture and pain aren’t changing, despite doing “core work”.​ ​​

What’s going on? why is there no improvement?​

M​any people think that “core work” is all about their abdomen. They pull their navel to their spine, press​ their back to the floor and/or pull​ up their pelvic floor. And while these exercises may provide relief​ in the short term, ​many people are not experiencing long term improvements. ​ In fact, I have found many people who follow these instructions exclusively, become more rigid, more braced and experience more pain.

​​​​So what to do?

​​​​​For a moment – pause the thinking ​that your core ​is your abdomen – and look at what your core actually DOES.
​When the core is working optimally it:

This is why we can have short term gains but not long term ​results

A lot of people stagnate in their progress because they don’t shift up ​their in exercises beyond early stage recovery.

​​Remember, in the early stages, particularly when there is injury and protection, ​​the​ ​focus often needs to be on small movement, specific muscle engagement, and learning to reconnect and retrain our core.

​And to progress to the next level of success, ​​​the focus often needs to shift to ​adaptability, agility, variability – for example, using muscles in different order, having more than one movement strategy to fall back on. ​

If ​the shift isn’t made, sustainable results will often be elusive.

What you will learn:

The movements and exercises include Yoga techniques and tools that are rooted in biomechanical science and offer deeper therapeutic benefits. I have used these exercises successfully for more than 20 years to help my clients resolve their QL pain. I am confident they will work for you too.

HOW I HELP

Over the past 25 years, I have worked with thousands of people – people from all walks of life – who had tried “everything” but have yet to have lasting success.

I help them recognize where they ​needed to focus their “core efforts.” ​Whether​ it ​is the retraining of small component movement or ​the expansion of capability, adaptability and variability.

​As a result, they ​have been able to tap into a whole new level of success – effortless effort, better performance, more suppleness…. and more “Ninja-warrior”-like movement.

​If you find yourself in the same frustrating situation and want results, I have created an online program ​to help you ​gain more success.
