What is "core stabilization"?

[Cynthia828]

Cathe said when doing my abs, I could include 3 times traditional crunch work, 2 times core stabilization, and one time through a tough kickbox workout for a total of 6 ab workouts. OK, so now I feel pretty stupid. What is core stabilization? Maybe I am doing it and I don't even know it.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Cynthia

Hi Cynthia,
Although I can't answer your question regarding "what is core stabilization", I do know that the new Crosstrain Express 6-pack contains alot of core stabilization for abs. (At least that's what I've read in several posts). Do you have these new tapes? If so, you're probably already doing core stabilization. Several people have said (in recent posts) that the core stabilization for abs is VERY effective. My new tapes are due to be delivered TODAY! So, I will be learning about core stabilization very soon.
Sorry I can't answer your question, but I'm sure several people will answer your post.

Susan P wrote a terrific explaination

On the Other Video Forum is a great explaination by Susan under "Pic of the Day 7-9". If you have any new videos, you're probably doing some core stabilization work.
