On this episode, Jason clarifies what we mean when we talk about the core in yoga. Once you’re finished listening, the core will no longer be a vague two-dimensional region that you aspire to pummel into submission. Instead, you’ll understand:
- The difference between the abdominals and the core
- The functions of the core — it contains! connects! supports! It’s like a Swiss Army Knife!
- The part of the core that is typically the tightest; the part of the core that is typically weakest
- How to counteract our tendency to be “up & tight”
- What you need to binge on Netflix right now if you haven’t already (no this has nothing to do with the core, but you’ll thank us later)
