This Exercise Is the Foundation of a Healthy Spine
Jul 13, 2025
Most people today have a weak and underdeveloped core—and it’s no surprise that chronic back pain and discomfort are so common.
But traditional core exercises like crunches, planks, and sit-ups aren’t enough.
To truly support your body in everyday life, your core needs to be strong and functional in a standing position—because that’s where real movement happens.
Your core must activate and stabilize while you're on your feet, not just on the floor.
One of the best ways to restore this essential function is with the alternating side-to-side swing.
This movement not only strengthens the core—it does so through rotation, a fundamental human movement often neglected in modern training.
It also helps mobilize the hips, stabilize the spine, and build long-term resilience for pain-free movement.
