Foundational Five Exercises with Core-Tex Sit

The Foundational Five are purposeful movements that you can follow along with to introduce therapeutic movements for your lower back, pelvic floor and hips. Using the patented motion of Core-Tex Sit, Dr. Leeds demonstrates and provides helpful cues for you to get the most benefit from these movements. 

Performing 5-10 repetitions of each movement a few times a day will feel great and counter the effects of hours of still sitting.
