Use a light, manageable weight for 8 to 10 controlled reps. Learn the movement and keep your form steady. Build weight gradually only when the movements feel comfortable; heavier lifting comes after this programme. The moves below already show the programme reps. Timed holds and carries stay as shown.
Beginner core work on the mat: breathing, pelvic-floor lifts, gentle bracing and controlled bodyweight moves. Builds awareness first, then steady strength for lifting, posture and everyday tasks.
