The very challenging "Stirring the pot" exercise. Elise's core strength is improving so fast! -
I prefer using a combination of isometric, flexion and rotation exercises when designing core training as these movements replicate real everyday forces that the body is often exposed to. However, if lower back pain is an issue, it is sometimes necessary to avoid the shear or compressive loading involved in repeated flexion, extension or rotation and focus on isometric exercises instead. Plank variations and the exercise shown above are great isometric alternatives. - Brace the torso and move the forearms in a clockwise circular motion without rotating torso or raising hips and then repeat the movement counter clockwise. Raising the legs or increasing the reps will increase exertion, keeping the knees on the floor will reduce intensity. - T. Tran, J. Sheppard (2013) "Low back sparing torso training".

We need to exercise and this activity will give us that power and will relieve the negative feeling that we have. There are times wherein we want to give up and we want to die and disappear, but there is light and hope in every situation. We can always choose to be happy and we can make our little world bright and colorful. It sounds dangerous but it is possible for we hold the key to our happiness. I just hope that every situation will turn good.
