A number of people mix up the term “core”, thinking it has the same meaning as “abs”, but they are mistaken. The two are frankly quite different. The core is a general term which includes the abs, glutes (butt), lower back muscles, and hips. This is why exercising the core will do wonders for your posture while at the same time soothing your back pain, boosting your overall physical performance and helping you prevent injuries.
