Lower back pain is the single leading cause of disability worldwide. While rest is sometimes needed for acute injury, motion is lotion for chronic back pain.
Strengthening the Posterior Chain
A weak back is a painful back. We focus on strengthening the:
- Glutes: They support the pelvis and take load off the spine.
- Core: A stiff core acts as a natural weight belt.
- Erectors: The muscles running up your spine need endurance.
By teaching proper hinging and lifting mechanics (like the deadlift), we teach the body to use the hips rather than the lower back to move loads.
