Core

The Core movement pattern focuses on maintaining stability through the trunk while generating or resisting movement. It includes exercises like planks, dead bugs, and Pallof presses, which strengthen the abdominals, obliques, and spinal stabilisers. A strong core enhances nearly every other movement pattern — from squatting and pressing to running and jumping. Core work improves posture, reduces injury risk, and builds the foundation for athletic performance. RB100 athletes often test their core endurance with 100-second plank challenges or timed ab circuits, emphasising quality control over speed.
