INTRODUCTION

The deep muscles of your stomach and low back are the core muscles of your body. They support and protect your low back and also help your leg and arm muscles work well. Doing the exercises in this booklet will strengthen your core muscles. Please read the instructions and follow the advice of your doctor or physical therapist when you start or progress to more difficult exercises.

There are 4 basic starting positions:
• Hook-lying
• Face-down lying
• Hands and knees
• Bridge

The exercises get progressively more challenging in each position. Do not move to the next exercise in a series if you can’t do the one before it. If your symptoms get worse while doing these exercises, talk to your doctor or physical therapist.
