Progressing Core Work with Quad Hover

Looking for a good way to engage core that’s not on your back? Check out this quad hover.

This is a great progression after you have mastered deadbugs but aren’t quite ready for a full plank.

We are practicing core control in neutral spine which is extremely functional. These types of exercises are better for gaining core strength than your basic crunches.

Focus on the exhale as you hover to control abdominal pressure. Watch out for the pooch or doming belly. That’s a sign that the core is not functioning properly and you may need more practice with breathing.
