English term or phrase: engage your core
Engage your core to keep your back straight and parallel.

Dans le contexte de la position à prendre en montée lors d'une course de trail. On retrouve souvent cette expression dans divers contextes sportifs, mais je ne me suis encore jamais penché sur le terme exacte à utiliser en français, habitué que je suis à regarder du contenu en anglais. Je pense que "contracter les abdominaux" fonctionne plutôt bien mais je ne suis pas sûr et certain que cela suffise.
