About this title

Synopsis

The way to fitness now is core training: here’s the ultimate illustrated guide.

It’s the only workout that achieves total-body results: the healthy, powerful, balanced body you need to be truly perpetually fit. That’s why core training has become a phenomenon at gyms everywhere. These highly effective exercises work all the muscles in total harmony for stabilizing the spine; for easing shoulder, neck, and back pain; for improved posture and stress relief; and for increasing overall strength. It also tones the torso and abs beautifully. Follow the complete routines laid out on these pages, complete with plenty of color photos and expert instructions that guide you safely through each exercise, or pick and choose your own personalized workout, selecting from the color-coded beginning, intermediate, or advanced levels. There’s information on working out with free weights, Swiss balls, and resistance bands, along with yoga, Pilates, and t’ai chi. Experience it at home or take it to the gym: either way you’ll have a workout that really works.
