Did you know core strength plays a crucial role in spinal health?

Your core muscles — found in your abdomen, back and pelvis — act as a stabilizing force for your spine, helping support proper posture and alignment. Benefits of having a strong core include:

• Improved balance
• Spinal support
• Injury prevention
• Enhanced performance

Try incorporating core-strengthening exercises like the curl-up, side plank and bird dog into your fitness routine. (Check out our instagram reel, “McGill’s Big 3 Exercises For Core Stability” for step-by-step directions on how to do these moves.) Your spine will thank you!
