Hey there ,


The conveniences of modern society and lifestyle have damaged our normal human existence.


Chronic low-back pain is a result of years of sitting causing deterioration of strength and mobility in the core, hips, glutes, and hamstrings:


  • Sittng is the way we spend the majority of our lives


  • We sit in cars, buses, trains, and airplanes for transportation


  • We sit during meals


  • We sit for work and when engaging in entertainment


  • We sit during social gatherings and nearly everything else


  • Sitting encourages bad posture, destroys strength and mobility, shortens the hip flexors, and tacks down the tissues of the glutes, and hamstrings


  • The spine loses its only support! Chronic low-back pain is the result


  • We are born with a natural full range of motion and an instinct for proper human movement


  • To undo the damage, we must focus on mobility


  • Bottom of squat position, samson stretch, and couch stretch to restore the hip flexors


  • Smashing tacked-down tissues to break up scar tissue and restore sliding surfaces


  • Prioritize strength training-core exercises, squats, and deadlifts with proper range of motion


  • 
Change diet to reduce abdominal weight that strains the lower back


  • Pay attention to hydration
