3 Responses to “Are There Any Exercises I Can Do When My Lower Back Hurts?”
It might just be that all the muscles of your core (hips, thighs, buttocks, lower back and abs) are all tight and in deep spasm. When they are tight they contort and this is what pulls your lower back and pelvis out of alignment and this is what causes your discomfort and sciatica. the best thing for this is inversion therapy. When inverting all of these muscles are free to stretch out and relax. As they do the knots come out of those muscles and as they are free and lose they will release their grips on your lower back, hips and pelvis and allow them to go back into alignment naturally. Once they are realigned nothing will be irritating your sciatic nerve and your pain will go away. You just have tight muscles that need to be stretched out. Stress causes this too by the way. Hope you feel better and hope this helps you. try to GOOGLE: inversion therapy online health mart :for more info. should be the top hit or so. inverted crunches are great, pull ups, push ups, etc.
Batman, if you are familiar with an exercise called Good Morning then that is the one to do. The resistance factor must be kept at a very minimum. Use a broomstick or handle and just perform the movement minus any weights. Do a set of ten repetitions and that should help. By the way if you want to get rid of the back problem try this exercise. Sit in a straight chair with the thighs parallel to the floor. Try twisting the body to the left and then the right. Take note of which side moves further. Start with the side that turned the most. Keeping the feet flat on the floor turn in that direction as hard and far as you can for fifteen seconds and then rest for thirty seconds. Repeat this movement again remembering to keep pushing all the time for the entire fifteen seconds. Rest again for thirty and then do it one more time. Now switch sides and turn to the other side and repeat the entire process for three turns. At the end of the last movement stand up and walk around. You should notice a difference in the way the back feels and it should feel freer to you. Do this as many times as day as needed until the pain and stiffness are gone.
