If you’re just "getting through" your core work, you’re wasting your time. Today is Day D: Isometric Stability. We aren't moving; we are bracing. If you want a cinched waist, you have to master the tension.
The Standard for Today:
Bear Crawl Holds: Knees ONE INCH off the ground. Any higher and your hip flexors take over.
Hollow Body Holds: If your lower back leaves the floor, the set is over. Glue your spine down.
Plank Shoulder Taps: Minimize hip movement. Imagine a glass of water on your back.. don’t spill a drop. tehe
The Biggest Mistakes I See:
1. Rushing: Speed is a mask for weakness. Slow down.
2. Doming: If your stomach pushes out, you’ve lost the deep core (TVA). Pull in, don’t push out.
3. Using Hip Flexors: If you feel this in your quads or hips, you aren't bracing your midsection.
Execution: Perform 3 rounds of the Day D circuit. Focus on the squeeze, not the clock.
