Functional Core for Women

Are you ready to show off a strong, supple midsection? Functional Core for Women: Targeted Training for Glutes and Abs helps women of all fitness levels improve strength and bodily aesthetics with an original and effective approach to working and reshaping the core muscles.

Written for women by a woman, 2022 IDEA Fitness Instructor of the Year Kia Williams sets the stage by breaking down the core’s anatomy to show how the abs and glutes work together and which muscles are best targeted for discernible change. She will then help you establish your goals and develop a program that helps you strengthen and engage these major muscle groups.

You will learn how to perform more than 45 ab and glute exercises that are proven to improve physique, function, and strength. Derived from a variety of disciplines—including traditional weight training, Pilates, barre, and yoga—the exercises feature step-by-step instructions, variations, equipment options, safety cues, and progressions and regressions. You’ll also find 6 sample workouts to quickly get you started, along with the guidance you need to create and customize your own program.

If you’ve struggled with building a stronger core to improve your fitness and enhance your self-confidence, it’s time to transform. With Functional Core for Women you can challenge your existing fitness level and change the way your body looks and feels.
