A no-nonsense, get to the point manual for strengthening every aspect of the core muscles.
The “core” is the region of the body between the shoulders and the hips. It serves as “grand central station” for transmission of forces of the legs and arms. Every movement you make depends on a strong and stable core. It’s vital for staying healthy and fit at any age.
Having the balance, agility, and posture that come with a strong, powerful core serves you well regardless of your age. Build a Rock Solid Core provides a simple, easy to execute system for building and maintaining strong muscles in the abs, obliques, lower back, butt, and hips.
This book is not about six-pack abs. It’s about identifying your current strength and ability using a specific self-assessment process and then creating a program that fits you.
What you’ll learn from Build a Rock Solid Core:
The exercise program in Build a Rock Solid Core comes from the clinical experience of noted author and clinician Doug Kelsey, PT, PhD. This approach and routine have been successfully with hundreds of clients over his career as a physical therapist and human movement expert.
I started October 20th with “red zone” drills – but doing them on alternate days regularly for about last three weeks – and my nagging low grade lower back pain is gone!
Nothing like a nagging pain as an incentive for doing your drills regularly! – Carmen R
Regardless of your personal passions – sports, hobbies, or just being fit – a solid core is key.
I heard about you from my physical therapist and appreciate your advice in the book. I have followed your recommendations and at the age of 63 have the strongest core in my life. I always hated doing sit-ups in gym class and now I know why. – Jane S
