Quite often lower back pain can be due to other issues, such as glutes/stomach not doing quite enough to support your body, core exercises and some glute work can definitely help with that, but even if you do work on those areas, sometimes long periods of time driving, sitting at desks, standing on busy trains etc can leave us with achy backs. Christmas is a great time for sitting alot, so some of these stretches might just help. And if you need some core work, check out last week’s suggestion. And January will be the month of Pilates…perfect for all these issues!
