"Your core is weak and you need to strengthen it," they say... And so you walk around bracing your core and holding your spine in neutral to protect your back. Contrary to popular belief... Research shows no clear link between core strength/stability and pain. Evidence also shows that core strengthening exercises are no more effective than general exercise at reducing pain. And yet people with back, butt, & sciatica pain are still being told that their spine is unstable, they need to brace their core, strengthen their transverse abdominis, and perform exercises like the McGill Big 3 to reduce pain and prevent back pain in the future. None of it's true.

In this video, I share with you 4 reasons why you should STOP core strengthening and instead aim to relax or deactivate your core for faster relief. I also share 5 simple ways that you can relax your core throughout the day.
