Yoga Focus On Anatomy Core Activation Part I: The Pelvic Floor  How do we ensure that we dont get injured when we do yoga, particularly challenging twists and bends? This Core Activation Series will take you through the step by step process of how to become aware of your core muscles, how to strengthen them and how to use them to protect your body from injury.
Core Activation Part II: The Transversus Abdominus Many experts consider the transversus abdominus to be the most important and most effective muscle for providing support for the lower back. It wraps around the waste and cinches in like a girdle, applying pressure as it squeezes, encouraging the spine to bend in a healthy way.
Core Activation Part III: The Multifidus The Multifidus is a deep core muscle that provides support from the back, pulling the lower spine toward the center of the body. When working together with the other core muscles, they create a cylinder of pressure through the lower part of the torso.
Core Activation Part IV: Putting it all Together Once we learn how to activate the core muscles individually, we can then contract them together to effectively provide support for the spine. Watch this video to see how its done.
