The Core Muscles
Core strength training emphasizes strengthening the muscles in the trunk area between your shoulders and knees. The core is where your body's center of gravity is located and is also where movement starts. Core muscles are responsible for maintaining the stability of your spine and pelvis and also transfer energy to the other body parts during many activities. When your core muscles are in shape, you have more energy, flexibility and a lower risk of injury during activity. Many people find it helps control or eliminate chronic lower back pain caused by a sedentary lifestyle.
Circuit Training
A core circuit workout is a series of strength exercises completed one after the other at prescribed weight machine locations called “stations”. For each exercise, a specified number of repetitions are performed within a specified time before moving to the next station. Exercises at each station are separated by short, timed rest periods. Longer rest periods separate the time between circuits
The total number of stations used for a training session makes up the “circuit”. The number may vary depending on your training level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced) and fitness goal.
