Functional core vs ab training! First off, we actually love ab training - that’s why it was the first move in our core sequence. But, if all you’re doing is a bunch of high rep, low load crunching movements just to get a “burn,” you’re missing out on a lot of potential gains! Your midsection is responsible for so much - extension, rotation, lateral flexion, flexion, etc. and there’s so much more to it than just developing a six pack…which crunches aren’t all that effective in doing anyway! So if crunches can’t spot reduce fat and they’re not particularly effective in building abs, then you might as well opt for functional core movements that also help you with stability, balance, coordination, and help you with overall total body strength which in turn helps everything else!

Functional core > traditional ab workouts? Just because it’s “functional” doesn’t necessarily mean it’s effective! We love functional core work over here on our page but it shouldn’t necessarily be pitched as “better” than traditional ab workout and it certainly shouldn’t be done with really light weight in high rep circuits. And they definitely don’t magically “snatch your waist” and “give you abs” overnight. Do both traditional ab work and challenging core work and your gains will skyrocket! . .

Deep core > superficial core. Always. Your deep core is the internal support system that stabilizes your spine and manages strength and control as you move 🔥. It includes muscles like the diaphragm, pelvic floor, and deep abs that work together to support your body. These were crucial to rebuilding my strength after pregnancy! Core is the backbone of almost all movement 💪🏾. This is exactly how I train and program inside my app 😤.

FUNCTIONAL CORE ≠ ABS Your core is not just a “6-pack”. It’s a 360° system that controls your trunk, transfers force, and keeps you moving fast and pain-free. Core muscles don’t just sit in the front. They wrap around your torso — front, sides, back (and yes, pelvic floor too). The truth: You don’t always need direct core work. Heavy lifts, sprinting, jumps — already load it hard. But when your goal is: – better force transfer – more control under speed – less pain – more confidence in movement 👉 targeted core work becomes a tool, not a decoration. Here are 5 core patterns I use with athletes to train the trunk in 360°, not just flexion: 1. Rotate Half-Kneeling Rotation → teaches controlled rotation, not chaos 2. Resist Rotation Pallof Press → stability under force 3. Resist Side Bending Suitcase Marches → sprint & running carryover 4. Side Bending Side Plank Hip Dips → lateral chain control 5. Extension Control Band-Resisted Extension → protects the spine while producing force Train the core to move and resist, not just to look good. Save this. Use it. Move better. #core #strengthandconditioning #dubai
