How is the diaphragm a core stability muscle?

The diaphragm muscle is actually part of what is called the intrinsic or deep core. When this muscle comes down while the other core muscles are activated, your core is much more stable. This process creates what is called intra-abdominal pressure.
Creating intraabdominal pressure helps protect the spine during challenging tasks such as lifting any type of weight off of the floor.

Nice video doc, great explanation of a muscle that is rarely explained to help contribute to core strength. Dr. Goodman

It took me a long time to truly understand this concept. I'm happy that it helped you.

I can fully contract it when sitting or bending forward, but feel a bit winded when standing or walking and revert to mouth breathing to get more air.
