DAY 9 of our Stronger 25 Challenge: 25-Minute Unilateral Core Workout!

This FUNCTIONAL CORE WORKOUT strengthens and stabilizes the core with a combination of rotation, anti-rotation and stability exercises - all focused on one side of the body at a time!

Unilateral core training allows us to isolate one side of the body at a time and work on reducing muscle imbalances between a dominant side and weaker side. It also mimics many real-life motions such as reaching with one arm, carrying a load of groceries, or holding a baby on one hip.

    I’ve been working out with you guys every single day for over 6 months, but got sick last week & was out of the game for FOUR days. I called those my ‘rest’ days & tomorrow will finish this 2 week program “on time” to be able to start whatever you have for me on Monday! 💪 feeling great guys - not only has my physique changed dramatically but also my energy and mood overall - thank you so much! You’re truly some goddesses!
