Re: Core Stability and sports injury

My question is what do you mean by core stability

If you mean the supposed core muscles of the abdominal and back, I would disagree that these are the core. I find that the adductor longus(left) and psoas (right) are larger factors in back injjury and pain than the supposed "core" These trigger responses in the QL of the left and the Serratus pos inf of the right. This causes lateral deviation for the spine to the left as these try to anchor the psoas.

Hope this is helpful.

Best regards,
Neuromuscular
