The Importance of Trunk Stability
Trunk stability is essential for optimal movement, performance, and injury prevention in athletes. The discussion contrasts two concepts: a stable spine versus a stiff spine. A stable spine allows for dynamic movement, while a stiff spine may lead to compensatory patterns that can result in injury. Understanding these concepts helps athletes tailor their training to promote better performance and minimize the risk of injuries.
