How to Actually Engage Your Core: 3 Tips That Will Change How You Workout

The Resource Doula

On this episode of The Resource Doula Podcast, we discuss 3 quick tools you can use to engage your core better. Your deep core, that is, not the superficial glamor muscles. You can practice with me wherever you are listening - whether in the car or doing chores around the house, or at a desk.

• Tool 1: Alignment! How you hold your body in space: booty back, ribs down.
• Tool 2: Core breath! This is a diaphragmatic breath: inhale to expand, exhale to engage.
• Tool 3: Sync it up! Align your breathing with movement: exhale with effort.
