How strong is your core?
This morning I came across the video, it’s a simple core strength test. I have seen quite a few core strength tests in my time and I think this one right up there with one of the best.
So, how strong is your core? You think you’d be able to pass the test? Give it a try next time you’re in the gym or have a few minutes at home. This guy makes it look easy, but it’s actually quite hard!
If you don’t think you can do the test set it as a goal to reach. You can also halve the time on each hold to make it a bit easier and allow you to work up the full test.
Good luck!
