Listen "12. Core Training Essentials: Elevate Your Athletic Performance"
Episode Synopsis
In this podcast episode, Coach Chris explores core training for athletes, emphasizing four essential trunk patterns: flexion, extension, lateral flexion, and rotation.
He recommends addressing these patterns weekly for a well rounded core training routine.
The core training progresses through three phases:
Phase 1 focuses on anti-movements, like planks and supermans, to establish stability and strength.
Phase 2 introduces basic movements for each pattern, such as side planks and seated twists.
Phase 3 integrates dynamic and complex movements, like medicine ball rotations and weighted carries, for enhanced power and coordination.
Coach Chris stresses gradually progressing and using proper form for optimal results.
