For the majority of our awake and functioning day we are upright bipedal creatures. So it stands to reason that if we want a strong and functional core, that we should train with the concept of specificity ie upright and standing on two feet! Whilst i'm a big believer that variety is not just the spice of life, but also the spice that creates a happier body, and thus floor abdominal exercises have a place, I'm an even bigger believer that training our abdominal and core system from a variety of standing positions is not just more relevant, but can absolutely be more fun and interactive too. Come along with me as I show you how to effectively train your core, but NOT on the floor.

Sometimes as people who ask other people to perform tasks we think we’ve nailed only to look at the performance of our client and not even recognise the activity they’re performing. We suddenly think that this person maybe be a “motor moron” when in fact it could be the way that they interpreted the information and not a fault in them.
