The Suitcase Carry! [she volunteered to do this based on her sheer curiosity to touch every piece of rehab equipment in the clinic] __ Lets take a look at what this exercise does: _ When you carry a load in one hand it is way harder than carrying a weight in both hands (thats called the farmers carry).... As you walk, you are forcing the opposite QL muscle (in the low back) to work with the same side glute to stabilize your pelvis and keep you upright. By doing both sides, this is a great exercise to develop and maintain core stability - so long as you are doing it correctly ___ #corestability #core #rehab #prehab #suitcasecarry #nonnarehab #geriatriccare #geriatric #elderly #strong #Vaughan #movement #woodbridge #movewellmoveoften #therapy #chiropractic #weston #majormack #movementchiropractic
