Learn the Best Core Exercises to get a Strong, Flexible Core! The Bridge Pose, or Bridge, as it’s simply known in pilates is a workout that will strengthen the abdominal core muscles and help keep it flexible. Having a strong core is important, but keeping your core muscles flexible is just as important, as an inflexible core can affect your posture and essential movements like walking. So, by using this workout, you’ll keep your core both strong and flexible!
Bridge Pose: Difficulty, 2; lower back, 2. Lie on your back with your legs hip width apart. Bend your knees so your feet are flat on the floor. Lift your pelvis and stomach upward toward the ceiling. Clasp your hands together under your lifted back; you can press downward on your arms for more leverage to lift your torso higher. Hold for 10 breaths. To let go, move your arms to the sides and slowly roll your spine back down. As you will notice, this pose also tones the butt! Plus it will: - alleviate stress and mild depression
- rejuvenate tired legs
- improve spine strength and flexibility
- relieve menstrual discomfort
- stretch the chest and neck
And, reduce fatigue, backache, headache and insomnia.
