See NYTimes Areticle from 06/18/2009 - Core Myths http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/21/magazine/21FOB-physed-t.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=core&st=cse ...a core exercise program should emphasize all of the major muscles that girdle the spine, including but not concentrating on the abs. Side plank (lie on your side and raise your upper body) and the “bird dog” (in which, from all fours, you raise an alternate arm and leg) exercise the important muscles embedded along the back and sides of the core. As for the abdominals, no sit-ups, McGill said; they place devastating loads on the disks. An approved crunch begins with you lying down, one knee bent, and hands positioned beneath your lower back for support. “Do not hollow your stomach or press your back against the floor,” McGill says. Gently lift your head and shoulders, hold briefly and relax back down. These three exercises, done regularly, McGill said, can provide well-rounded, thorough core stability. And they avoid the pitfalls of the all-abs core routine. “I see too many people,” McGill told me with a sigh, “who have six-pack abs and a ruined back.”

The workouts looks pretty easy to do. How long does one get to see results if only one or two workouts is/are carried out? Definitely would like to try this. Thanks for the tips

to #10 guys can definitely do these exercises - they're not specific to one gender. The plank is probably my most favorite one listed in the article - it's great for helping with the lower back which is important for someone like me sitting in front of a computer at work.
