Almost everyone I know complains of either back issues, tight hips or tight hamstrings.  Spoiler: Everyone should be able to easily touch their toes, squat and sit on the floor comfortably despite your age.

Have you been neglecting or stretching?

No matter how much stretching you do, if your transverse abdominus (TVA) muscle isn't turned on you will have chronically tight hips, hamstrings and/or back.  Wait... What's the TVA?

The transverse abdominis, or TVA muscle, is the deepest core muscle stabilizing  your trunk. It attaches to the anterior lumbar spine and wraps around the midsection from back to front like a corset or weight belt.  When correctly engaged, the TVA cinches the waist, lengthens the torso, flattens the belly and supports the spine and pelvis.  

In this course you will learn to activate and strengthen your TVA and put it to use in a variety of movements used in exercise and daily life to allow your hips, hamstrings and back to get a well deserved rest.
