So I had to take the entire weekend to recover from teaching step class on Friday. I was so sore, but it felt good because it had been awhile since I had felt soreness in some of the muscles I had used on Friday.
Today I will be teaching Pilates this afternoon so I am anticipating my abs hurting tomorrow.
Pilates is a great core workout. But most people don't realize it works more than just your abs. It works your entire core. Our back and ab muscles are intertwined to give us support and stability in our daily life. If we don't take time to take care of them we end up with bad posture and low back pain.
So remember the next time you do your core workout to incorporate a few moves like the "superman" or the "v-up" to utilize all your core muscles in one move.
All of our core muscles work together so it only makes sense to exercise them together.

One last thing, you can still sign up for the 1st Annual Freedom Run/Walk on the 4th of July for $8. ( no shirt)
Enjoy your day!
