1. Hollowman<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

I learned this move from Jillian Michaels. This is an isometric core exercise, meaning it has no movement. Keep your shoulders down and away from your ears. Keep your low back on the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. High Plank<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is my absolute favorite core exercise of all time. I do plank variations in every single workout. If I had to do one core exercise for the rest of my life, this would be it.<\/p>\n

3. Bridge<\/h2>\n

Most people think that a bridge is for your glutes. Bridge is also a fantastic core strengthening exercise when performed correctly with your hips tucked and low abdominals engaged.<\/span><\/p>\n
