Ask most women on the street what they most want from a workout, and we bet they'll say a stronger core. And we're here for it: the centre of our bodies, the core, is the foundation of all our movement, and the benefits of a core regime extend way beyond aesthetics.
"Core workouts are so important to include in your training programme, as your core is quite literally the central stabiliser for your body," says personal trainer Fiona Kavanagh. "Our posture, our movement quality, our balance and stability are very much impacted by the strength of our core. It's what helps us stand a little taller, gives us that good posture, supports balance and coordination, and enables us to move better."
