Clarence Hairston, Fitness Manager at Bay Club SF Tennis, helped us challenge our core with a circuit that works both the abdominals and the obliques.
Clarence’s tip: Don’t put pressure on your lower back—you want to feel the challenge in your core. If you start to feel it in your lower back instead, try bending your knees more.
