Increase Core Strength To Minimize Lower Back Pain

Posted By: Eric-Fitness Together Newtonville & Auburndale on 12/16/2011

Back pain is commonplace in todays world.  When I was searching for an image for this article, I typed in "lower" into Google, and in the search bar, "back pain" popped up without me doing anything else.

How do we fight against back pain when it seems like any extracurricular movement adds to the discomfort?

We strengthen the core!  A strong core helps us maintain correct posture, and avoid things like too much curvature in the lumbar spine.

Here are a few movements that can help in the quest for a stronger, healthier, core:

-Planks

-Side Planks

-Paloff Press

-TRX fallouts

Add these movements into your exercise regime and start to feel better!
