Core Strength Exercises

[back to Exercises selection page]

Name: Back Bridge

Purpose: Activate core muscles of torso and pelvis as well as strengthening the hamstrings.

Starting Position: Begin sitting on the Evolution chair and slowly walk your feet out until the stability ball is positioned on your upper back. Rest your head on the ball so you are looking directly up toward the ceiling.
 

Execution: Push hips toward the ceiling until body is in flat “table-top” position. Hold this position for progressively increasing amounts of time starting at 15 seconds.

Regression: Widen the distance between your feet to provide a wider base of support.

Progression: Narrow your feet to decrease the base of support. To progress the exercise further, try lifting one leg and holding for a few seconds before switching legs.
