Here are some lower back strengthening moves that you can work into your routine!
At the end of the video I show you one modification to a side plank.
- Plank- helps strengthen those transverse abdominal muscles that help support the lower back.
- Superman – helps strengthen the erector spinae muscles which are responsible for extending, flexing and rotating the spine and neck.
- Glute Bridge- helps strengthen your glutes which controls movements of the torso, hips, legs and pelvis. If you have strong glutes this helps take the stress off of your lower back while making certain movements that we do multiple times a day.
- Bird Dog – this move stretches those quads, hip flexors and strengthens the glutes. Which are all great things when it comes to preventing lower back pain.
- Side Plank – Primarily works the obliques which help strengthen the core which reduces lower back pain.
** all moves are performed at your own risk. At no time during any exercises should you feel any kind of sharp or radiating pain **
