Jock Workout: http://www.daveywaveyfitness.com/jock

Your core muscles are all the muscles around your pelvis and trunk. Strengthening those muscles should be a part of every fitness program, and it may mean more than doing the occasional sit-up or crunch. This plank exercise is a great way to target your core.

According to the Mayo Clinic, there are 7 important reasons to exercise your core. Strengthening your core: Improves balance and stability. Doesn't require equipment. Helps build your abs. Makes it easier to do most physical activities. Doesn't take a lot of time. Can be done at home - or anywhere else! Helps you reach your other fitness goals.

In addition, I'd like to add that a strong core can help prevent lower back pain and improve your posture.
