i was wondering if anyone knew any good
workouts I can do, preferrably by myself,
to strengthen the core muscles. Back in
pe class at school we used to do this one
workout where one person stood on a
balance cushion thing and the other person
through a large heavy ball and the person
had to catch it while keeping there
balance.
But currently I have access to neither the
equipment or a workout partner.
So does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,

ps: do push-ups work the same muscles as
bench-presses would?

What core muscles are you talking about?
Push ups and bench presses work completely
different muscle groups... :\
Anything that makes you feel a burn in
your lower back, stomach area and sides is
a good core workout.
Bench press works the chest.
The pectorals.
They're technically not a part of the
core.
