Slinging out the core exercises?
Every man and his dog has been talking up core exercises since Australian research first highlighted it over 30 years ago.
But is the standard approach getting you the best results?
Your standard core exercises work on both sides of the body at the same time or one side at a time.
However, when we move around we are using opposite corners at the same time. The muscles involved in this function form an anterior and posterior sling. So it’s important to work the functional pattern after identifying which sling is weakest.
