worldDo you know how your mom takes all the jackets with you on a family outing? Back pain is basically like this. No, not because I literally have a jacket. In our body, when the hamstrings are tight, the glutes are tired, or the core is released, the lower back, a part of the body, has to bear the load at a cost.
Essentially, if other muscles don’t absorb the stress that is expected during an activity like walking, the load will hit your hips (like mom in a jacket). Unfortunately, we don’t have the muscles designed to handle it. This is what causes back pain.
Therefore, even if you say “strengthening the waist”, it is not actually about building the muscles of the waist itself.it is to activate you core and your gluteus maximus.
This 16 minute workout from Kat AtienzaTrainer, Founder session Brooklyn is designed to do just that. Begin with a warm-up that gently wakes you up and pumps blood to the areas you’re working on, with movements like hamstring scoops, quad pulls, plank to pike and kneeling hinges.
From there, step up the challenge with a few strengthening exercises. , plays two roles.
“Think of all the muscles that really help support your lower back: your core, your glutes, your quads,” Atienza says of the exercise-bearing plank.
She also gives tips on how to get the most out of these exercises. A lot of this work is learning how to find and activate your core and glutes muscles, so you can do it in real life to avoid back pain. For example, if you’re doing a hip-her hinge while standing in “good morning,” your tail should be hidden and your glutes should be in line with the rest of your back. Excessive reliance on the hips to do work.
Doing this workout on its own or incorporating some exercises into other workouts can ultimately help distribute some of the load on your lower back.
