How can you ensure a strong lower back?

The lower back is one of the areas that active people rely on but tend not to exercise.

Why? We mostly think of getting a strong part of the body that we can see quads and stomach for example.

A strong lower back is key to an active lifestyle, flexibility, and staying injury free.

How To Steer Clear of Back Pain

The lower back is an area of the body that we rely on for support. We may not think of it much until there is an injury. Sometimes back pain starts with a little tweak or twinge.

Other times, a casual action like picking up a sock off the floor sends back muscles into spasm.

At other times, sports activities cause back pain. For instance, if you’re lifting weights and pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone, the lower back can be the place where you feel the blow. An intense lower back workout is the time and place that many weight lifters get injured.

How can you keep your back strong, and prevent low back injury?

Easy Low Back Workouts

Don’t wait until you get hurt to think about exercising your lower back. Be proactive and build gentle low back exercises into your regular workouts.

Try these fun and easy workouts to get started.

Sitting Workout

The ergonomic cushion provides a fun, elegant, and convenient way to develop back strength and relieve back pain. Plus, it doesn’t take extra time, effort, or even the cost of a gym membership. You can do a sitting workout while you do the rest of your life at home, at work, or even in the backyard.

Large corporations such as Iconmedia Direct and L’Oreal have selected this equipment for their staff in headquarters. If you are part of a large business, or if you’re a solo entrepreneur, you can make The Waff Mini your best partner for back health.
