Back Exercise: Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain By Brian Richey
My new book deals is for anyone who has or has a client dealing with low back pain. It goes into depth on specific spinal pathologies as well as non-specific low back pain, explaining each pathology, highlighting the contraindications and prescribing specific exercise programing to train and progress them safely.

» Low back pain is the single leading cause of disability worldwide, according to the Global Burden of Disease 2010.
» Back pain is one of the most common reasons for missed work. In fact, back pain is the second most common reason for visits to the doctor’s office.
» One-half of all working Americans admit to having back pain symptoms each year.
» Experts estimate that as much as 80% of the population will experience a back problem at some time in their lives.
» Most cases of back pain are mechanical or non-organic—meaning they are not caused by serious conditions, such as inflammatory arthritis, infection, fracture or cancer.
» Americans spend at least $50 billion each year on back pain—and that’s just for the more easily identified costs.

✦ It could be a number of issues. From specific medical condition to muscle weakness/imbalance to repetitive poor posture and lifting habits.
✦ Multiple (some serious) medical conditions lead to low back pain.
✦ Knowing and understanding what is the actual cause can be very important.

7 Essential (Strategies)

✦ Finding and Maintaining “their” Neutral ✦ Spinal Stability ✦ Lumbar Mobility (Flexion) ✦ Hip Mobility Thoracic Mobility (Extension &
Rotation) ✦ Core Strength ✦ Functional Core Stability/Strength (off the ground)
![Page 20: Essential Seven; Bulletproof Your Back](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022041701/62535839038bd00e9b6ea5e1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Finding and Maintaining Their Neutral
© 2018, Balanced Body Educa3on, All rights reserved. May not be reproduced in whole or in part.
✦ Neutral for those with back pain is different than traditional neutral.
✦ Find a pelvic/spinal position (pelvic bias) that they can maintain without pain.

Forward Lean (Multifudi)✦ With fingers in the grove between
the erectors and spinous processes, feel your multifudi.
✦ As you lean forward, do they fire evenly? Same force?
✦ If not, the one that is firing late, place that leg behind the other and repeat. Keep adjusting leg position until they are even or the lagging one is now in firing first.
✦ 10 reps, then bring feet slightly closer together and repeat keeping them firing as close together as possible,
✦ Repeat until feet are together
