Core strength is imperative and has many benefits associated with it. Core based exercises help to improve strength around your pelvis, lower back, hips and abdomen to help to work better together which in turn can improve your balance & stability. It can also be beneficial in reducing lower back pain and improving your overall function.
You don’t need fancy equipment to strengthen your core, some basic but effective exercises include the plank / bridge / single leg bridge / dead bug / clam.
However, if you feel like you have a weak core or are struggling with mobility and transfers or have started to have frequent falls, a Physiotherapy assessment would be beneficial so that a tailored strength programme can be devised to fit your needs.
