Explanation:
The core is the central part of the body comprised of about 35 (major and minor) muscle groups which connect to the pelvis, spine and hip area. These can be broadly grouped as the abdominals, back extensors, hip, and lateral trunk muscle groups.
The core area is the centre of gravity and stability for all bodily movements.
