Unilateral core exercises are a game-changer, yet many overlook their importance until injury or performance plateaus strike. I once trained a client who had been lifting weights for years. He was incredibly strong in big lifts like goblet squats, deadlifts, and kettlebell swings, but his back would occasionally "go out," as he would say.

This wasn't an age-related issue; instead, he suffered from unaddressed hip mobility limitations, weak hip rotators, and, you guessed it, a lack of deep core strength. To remedy his situation, we included several unilateral core exercises featured in this article into his routine, reducing pain and significantly improving strength and core stability.

Below are the 11 best unilateral core exercises you need to be doing right now:

Suitcase Carry

Kettlebell Anti-Rotation March

Kettlebell Rack March

Half Kneeling Kettlebell Windmill

Same-Side Deadbug

Tall Kneeling Anti-Rotation Press (Pallof Press)

Bear Plank Shoulder Taps

Plank Reach

Clock Plank

Glute Bridge March

Single-Leg Glute Bridge
