Yoga:
You may wonder how yoga improves core strength, well it does. Yoga not only builds core strength but also improves muscle flexibility. ‘A good mix of yoga and heavy weights will help strengthen your muscles, as well as add flexibility’. Follow the breathing exercises to clear the lung and exercise the stomach muscles; try out different yoga postures like sarvangasana (shoulder stand), virbhadrasana (warrior pose), or the dhanurasana (bow pose), these will test your core strength. You can also try out yoga stretches to avoid injuries and improve your performance in weight training.
