What do Core Stabilising Muscles do?
|
CORE STABILISING MUSCLES... |
 |
Hold the body in an upright position |
 |
Prevent poor postural patterns/habits such
as stooping, permanent slouching and rounded shoulders |
 |
Support the stabilising muscles by holding
the body in optimal alignment |
|
 |
|
When core stabilising muscles work properly... |
 |
It takes minimal effort to contract them |
 |
They provide stability to the central areas
of the body by preventing movement |
|
What do Dynamic Muscles do?
|
DYNAMIC MUSCLES... |
 |
Provide movement. They propel the arms
and the legs through space. They allow you among other
things to walk, run, swing a tennis racquet and to do
press-ups. |
 |
Rely on the stabilising muscles to provide
support. This frees the dynamic muscles to work to their
full potential |
