WHAT TO EXPECT

A lot of core exercises are performed on the floor, so expect a lot of mat work where you will hold poses like side plank and high plank positions, as well as bicycle kicks and russian twists, working your abdominal muscles towards a strong core. This class is more about endurance than a fast-based shred, ending with that satisfied burn of the abs.

FAQS

  • Among the many benefits of core exercises, assisting in weight loss journeys is one of them. While targeted ab workouts do not burn as many calories as, say, running, they do strengthen the core stability to be able to perform better during cardio and other weight training, enhancing that weight loss journey.

  • Absolutely, all of our Richmond gym classes can be adapted to suit individual fitness levels, which our instructors will guide you through.

  • We have a team of personal trainers that can help you train a strong core. It is helpful to have a trained professional who can correct form, teaching you to resist rotation and understand the importance of alignment for good form.

  • Our other classes include core & conditioning, spin & abs, pilates and HIIT.

  • It is best to include core training in your routine 2-3 times a week with our classes or in our functional training area, where you can choose free or body weight exercises.
