Workout of the Week: Core 3/1/11
Important cues:
~ Be sure to "feel" your posture and alignment during the exercises.
~ Pull your navel in towards your spine, lift the head off the shoulders (no shrugging) and allow your shoulder blades to slide down your back.
~ Remember, "Quality" not "Quantity".
~ Take your time and do it right!
~ Breathe as naturally as possible.
~ Work at your own ability, keeping in mind any personal limitation you may have.
~ Have fun!
