Hi Everyone,
Why not use this time to get a strong core?
Here’s our next support video.
Dr Stuart McGill’s Big 3 Core Stability Exercises:
#1 – The Curl Up
He recommends doing spinal mobility work prior to the core stabilizing exercises.
6 rounds of Cat/Cow is what he advises.
For the curl up exercise, hold the contraction position for 10 seconds, rest for a breath or two, and repeat 6 times.
These core stabilizing exercises are excellent for effectively strengthening the core, without placing undue strain or excess stress on injured low back tissues/pain generators. In other words, a great way to strengthen the core, without hurting your low back.
The curl up works the anterior core stabilizers.
