Crunches aren’t the only way to work your core—and honestly, they might not even be the best. A trainer says moves like dead bugs, side planks, and bird dogs are way better for beginners and anyone wanting to protect their spine. These exercises teach your core to stabilize (like when you carry groceries or play sports) instead of just flexing your spine over and over. Your back will thank you! #Fitness #FitnessTips #CoreStrength
