Lipsey reflects on how a serious car accident altered his path — from being a basketball player to becoming a fitness trainer. He explains how this change led him to value core strength as the foundation for healing, stability, and overall fitness.
He also discusses his experience as a trainer for celebrities and athletes, highlighting how his early sports training and personal history influenced his philosophy toward fitness.
According to Lipsey, the “core” is not just about abs — it’s the body’s central engine. He argues that core strength stabilizes the spine and pelvis, enabling efficient transfer of power between upper and lower body, better posture, balance, and safer movement.
He explains that his training method (through Core Concepts / core-fix workouts) relies on functional movement patterns: lunges, squats, compound upper-lower body exercises — all engaging the core through full-body chain reactions.
He also notes how his workouts adapt well to pandemic constraints — with online virtual classes becoming a way to help people maintain fitness at home without needing expensive equipment.
