Core-Tex Sit Balance Training and Core Strength

Did you know that your core needs to be able to work in every direction that you can move your trunk and pelvis? As two independent segments of our body, they sometimes need to move as a team but more often move complimentary and independently to one another. And they do this where we spend 95% of waking hours=vertical to gravity.

Contrast this to training your core and abdominals while laying on your back or planking. If you love planks and crunches, that’s OK. They have value but are incomplete.

When we look at the motion of the pelvis and hips in relationship to the trunk while using Core-Tex Sit, we can see the fluid combinations of motion created between the two segments. The spinal muscles and abdominal muscles are “fed” important movement nutrition that exposes these critical muscles groups to real world challenges that transfer to moving better and feeling better.

These exercises are effective for those looking for help with lower back pain or lower back pain prevention, pelvic floor issues, balance and neurological issues.

Originally inspired by the equestrian community and their need to for symmetrical balance in a continually changing saddle environment, these exercises have shown great value for taking care of your spine, postpartum moms and athletes from all backgrounds.

The team at Seven Movements, along with the researchers they have partnered with at the University of British Columbia are tackling the movement challenges of Parkinson's disease through "micro dosing" movement. 
Pilates practitioner,  Mary Ascension Saulnier from Los Angeles utilized Core-Tex Sit with her client who had been experiencing sciatic pain.  Positioning the trunk and upper extremities vertically and horizontally with the hands anchored allows Core-Tex Sit to contribute to some very beneficial movements of the pelvis and lower back.
In this video, we demonstrate alternate heel raises to engage the core and promote micro movements of Core-Tex Sit. By incorporating this marching motion, you actively generate those additional micro movements that require muscle activity to benefit your lower back, spine, and hips.
