Your back gives your whole body the needed boost to perform your daily tasks. Many of the muscles in your back help power you through your daily routine, such as walking, climbing stairs, or carrying a heavy load. It helps you in all of your functions. The individual muscles of your body generate a certain amount of power, but it's your back muscles and your abs – your core, in general – that combine these forces into one total force. Your core is what connects your lower and upper body. The energy you put into your daily tasks comes from the total force generated here. It dramatically affects the performance of the upper and lower extremities by providing a stable base for more efficient use and greater power output, which then improves your overall strength, flexibility, and endurance. This applies to any fitness level, the old included. For these reasons, protecting your back and the core is vital in your daily life.
KEEP A STRONG CORE. Everything that you do emanates from your core.
Building a stronger midsection can relieve stress on your back, especially along the lower part. Strong and supportive trunk muscles support your spine and prevent lower back pain. If we look at our daily lives, we are either sitting or standing every single moment of the day, requiring strong back – and core – muscles. A simple brisk walk every morning can do the trick. It can help increase blood flow to your spine, sending an ample supply of nutrients to the structures that support your back, which can nourish damaged spinal structures in case there are any. It also stretches and strengthens your back muscles, especially if you keep your trunk straight and your tummy tucked in solid. If you're into serious fitness, you can try core-building workouts that intensely work your abdominals and back muscles.
KEEP A HEALTHY WEIGHT… This will unload your back…
Haven't you noticed that pregnant women, most often than not, complain about back pain? This is because the extra weight on their tummy puts additional strain on their back in an attempt to keep the back straight. This is precisely why carrying excess weight around your belly would cause you so much pain in your back. As earlier said, brisk walks can train your core muscles and also shred off some extra fat around the midsection. The NHS-UK advocates brisk 10-minute daily walks to meet the recommended 150 minutes of weekly exercise. Cycling and stair climbing are other activities that can both tackle that extra pound and exercise your back based on the guidelines. Just make sure to keep your core engaged.
WATCH YOUR POSTURE AND OBSERVE PROPER BODY MECHANICS…
Maintaining a proper spinal alignment in your daily activities is essential. This practice always ensures a strong core while also training your abdominals and back muscles for endurance. It's been emphasized repeatedly to keep a good posture as it's critical. Sit, stand, and walk with your back aligned.
Slouching while working at your desk puts extra stress on the low back structures, such as the spinal discs and can cause problems when kept for too long periods. You can unload the stress on these sensitive structures by:
Improper lifting mechanics, such as lifting with your back bent lifting and twisting, can cause lower back problems and may lead to chronic back pain when repeatedly done or left untreated for a prolonged period. Follow these lifting guidelines to prevent lower back injury:
Reminders:
NOW, TRY THIS EXERC K!!!
The exercise described is what many call the abdominal hallowing, specifically the abdominal drawing-in manoeuvre (ADIM). This exercise strengthens your deep trunk stabilizers, which may aid in alleviating or even preventing low back pain. Try to observe and practice this while you sit, walk, bike, or climb stairs in essentially all activities you do, and you'll achieve everything described above. You can feel your core getting more potent, your waist and midsection feeling tighter, and your posture becoming more aligned. You'll feel more balanced as you get to do the things you love with fewer worries about hurting your back!
