of the core. Thus, if a person has greater core stability, they have a greater level
of control over the position and movement of this area of their body. The body's core
is frequently involved in aiding other movements of the body, such as the limbs, and
it is considered that by improving core stability a person's ability to perform these
other movements may also be improved i.e. core stability training may help improve
someone's running ability. The body's core region is sometimes referred to as the
torso or the trunk, although there are some differences in the muscles identified
as constituting them. The major muscles involved in core stability (source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_stability).;
