Start with these three back pain exercises

The best back pain exercises work the back and core muscles adequately without placing excessive force through your lumbar spine.

The primary cause of mechanical lower back pain is excessive force through the lower back tissues. Excessive force through the tissues of the lower back result in tissue microtrauma and inflammation. This results in pain.

The primary purpose of back pain exercises is to stabilize the spine and to control the forces through the spine, using the back muscles.

Think of your back muscles like a built in back belt

If you’re doing back exercises that cause excessive forces through the spine then the exercises you’re doing aren’t really helping you any. In fact they’re probably keeping your back from healing. Or making your symptoms worse.

These three lower back pain exercises have been studied extensively and have been shown to work the entire core without placing excessive forces through your lower back.

If you have lower back pain start with these three exercises.
