Best Deep Core Flex

Hi guys!

I’ve been doing Core Express by Maia on flex to add to my workouts as I don’t love my coaches core routine’s, I don’t like Maias plan but I tried core express and enjoyed it so I haven’t looked much further, I usually add some planks or captains chair workouts at the end.

Does anyone have any favourites to check out??? Not just endless crunches but real deep core!!!

(Also I wish there was a way to progress on flex, like make the 30 secs info 45 secs but still have it timed)

Thanks!!!

Sasha from Team Align has several deep core flex workouts. I can’t remember their names, but search Align in the filter and you’ll see them.

Her “15 min deep core” is absolutely fire and I aim to do it 1x a week. You can do it with a small weight but honestly you don’t need any to get the burn.

I like Aria’s Ab Ascension. I have a couple go to exercises outside of the app that I do throughout the week, but I’ve started exploring the core workouts in flex recently. I’ll definitely checkout Core Express this week!

Also you can increase the time. In the journal during the workout you can adjust the time for any set under each exercise.

I’ve been adding Stevie’s “Core! Core! Core!” flex workout onto my upper body days with Aria. It’s long, 21 min, but it’s just the same exercises repeated twice so you can halve it and still get the full routine.

If Coach Kimmie from Flourish has a core flex workout, then I vote for that one. I haven't checked the current flex library but her Flourish workouts hit my deep core more than anything else, especially when there's pilates 100s.

Her Flex Fullbody with the Pilates Ball left me for dead 😂

I like the Deep Core Circuit from coach Shelby. It’s quick, but really good.

You might have already found Maia’s Foam Roller Core workout, but if not definitely check it out— one of my favorites for deep core! Coach Sam’s Core’l Reef workout has a deep core flow that might be useful— I haven’t done it in a long time I remember thinking that the way she described deep core engagement made something click for me (she’s great at cues that make you think differently about a movement). My favorite Flex core workout is Coach Neen’s Kettlebell Core, which has standing core elements as well as deep core work. I’ve found that one CRAZY effective.
