Women's bodies change. Whether you have a baby, get a computer job, experience heartbreak, develop a health condition, have an accident that causes injury, you are aging ... or more, your core muscles can be affected. This often causes pain and harms your quality of life.
Many "core fitness" programs come and go. Some people do benefit from these programs, but many experience either no change or, even worse, more problems. Exercise performed incorrectly can cause more harm than good. In the last twenty years, scientists have uncovered some truths about how each one of the core muscles works both individually and as a group. The core is complex, and it is very easy to end up with an exercise program that causes more problems than solutions-especially for women. Women have particular challenges in terms of their bodies' health and should not be prescribed exercises without all considerations specific to a woman's needs. Many women are pushed into a core training program that is simply too hard for a start, and then they are made to feel bad about themselves because they cannot "keep up."
Core Truths provides you with a better understanding of what your core muscles are and how they function. With knowledge of how the core muscle system responds to all aspects of your personal health, you can then apply techniques offered in this book that control and shape your health by controlling and shaping your core.
