Suffer from Back pain?

Suffer from back pain?

After being in the fitness industry for over 10 years now. I have seen so many people who suffer or have suffered from on going back pain. There are many causes of back pain so I would always suggest booking in to see your Physio asap and get on top of it straight away.

However, I thought it would be a great idea if I got our resident physio Andy from Proform Physiotherapy to put together a few exercises that we can pass on to you all when your back does begin to flare up.

Fire Extinguishers – these stretches are to be used when your back has flared up. This is also the time where you should be resting from training.

– Glute Stretch (pigeon pose)

– Hip Stretch (couch stretch and Kettlebell in the hip)

– Lower Back Stretch (Iron Cross)

If you are unsure of these stretches please ask me next time you are in the gym and I will show you 🙂

Bricks – These exercises are to be performed when your back pain has subsided. Include these in your weekly training program. 3 times per week, in a warm up is a great idea. 

– Glute Bridges

– Side Planks

– Stabiliser Reach

– Lateral Band Walks

– Monster Band Walks
