ilg has been doing and teaching the same and/or similar core movements for over 3 decades and am falling ever deeper in love with core training. why? i don’t use music, or fancy machines or other gimicks…i use core training to rescue over and over again my soul…by using core training as a form of Pratyhara (yogic sense withdrawl)….to wit:
O love, O pure deep love, be here, be now
Be all; worlds dissolve into your stainless endless radiance,
Frail living leaves burn with you brighter than cold stars:
Make me your servant, your breath, your core.

These teachings are the "Rasas" or "sap" of Wholistic Fitness. You’ll find insights to ponder, student chi to keep your own chi topped off, and plenty of proven training techniques to test on your own body, mind, and spirit! Also, you’ll find my very popular Race Reports, and news of our Sangha’s (community’s) latest transpersonal fitness adventures!
Padmasana crunches or prop block crunches, that is the question…
Thank you Rumi and thank you coach
