Episode description
Can’t feel your abs firing and engaging when you do core exercises?
This week’s question comes from listener Judy: “I can tell that my core is really weak, and I want to strengthen it because I know it’s causing a lot of issues for my back and for my hips. But it feels like whenever I do ab exercises, I just can’t feel those muscles firing. What am I doing wrong?”
In this shortie episode, I’m breaking down:
- What’s actually required for a muscle to “flex”
- Muscle atrophy and what causes it
- The BEST way to get your core muscles to properly engage again
Strong core, here you come!
