If you have specific health issues, discuss these exercises with your doctor, or a fitness professional before beginning. Remember that no exercise should cause pain while it is being performed.

Training helps strengthen our posture.
Posture plays an important role in the health and fitness of our bodies.
These are the muscles of the back and the abdomen. The tighter these muscles are, the easier it is for us to maintain a straight, strong posture. Weak abdominal muscles particularly cause lower back pain. Athletes tend to train in three-week cycles because of their body's natural biorhythms. The human body goes through a cycle of effectiveness over a 21-28 day period.
