Core Challenge: Day 4

Core Control from Hands and Knees + Back Core

Getting Off the Ground!

We don’t spend life lying on our backs — so today, we bring your core work to a more functional position.

Why This Matters

Challenge your brain and core with cross-body and anti-rotation drills.

    • Quadruped (hands & knees) is a natural, developmental position that builds whole-body strength.

    • It helps you find the balance between too much gripping vs. too much release.

    • Gravity makes the challenge very real — can you maintain your core here?

You’ll explore:

  • Letting go of excess tension (are you a “chronic ab gripper”?)

  • Maintaining inner bracing in all fours

  • Back-body strength with bridge progressions (and avoiding common compensations)

Key Takeaway

Strength isn’t just about squeezing harder. It’s about finding the right level of activation for the task at hand.

👉 Tomorrow, we’ll take your core upright into standing.
