Core exercises for weak person💀😭

So I am a lot weaker than most for reason. I also had an accident which prevented me from any exercise for far too long. I notice that I cramp up my abs, especially upper and somewhat to the side when walking or running, which is obviously not useful for breathing. If I don't then my belly hurts. I guess I lost all muscle support there.

Looking for core exercises for a total beginner. I can't use too much weight on one arm due to that accident. I also can't get physiotherapy. So basically looking for well-rounded stabilizing core exercises for a weak person.

... Read moreCore strength is essential for overall stability and function, especially for those recovering from injuries or with limited strength. Incorporating gentle exercises can significantly improve your core stability over time. Start with basic movements like pelvic tilts, seated march, and leg slides, which can be performed without needing heavy weights or extensive physical therapy. Each of these exercises targets different muscle groups, promoting good posture while minimizing the risk of injury. Additionally, consider integrating breathing exercises to enhance your core engagement, ensuring that your abdomen works in tandem with your breath, which can alleviate discomfort. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional if you have concerns about starting a new exercise program. Adapt these exercises to your comfort level, and gradually increase the intensity as your strength improves. Continuing to focus on core stability will not only help with movements like walking and running but also contribute positively to your overall physical health.
