If you know Coach, you know we love to encourage people to work on their core. It’ll result in a wealth of improvements, including enhanced performance in sports and the gym, better posture and increased protection against lower back pain. So we asked Tig Hodson and Sam Prynn, founders of women-only gym StrongHer, for their recommendations for core moves for women. “There are no exercises that are specific to men or women per se,” says Hodson. “However, there are some which we have found are more suited to women thanks to common types of posture and having had children.”
