More than 80 percent of people will experience a back-related injury during their lifetime. Once this happens to your back, you become more susceptible to hurting it again. This routine will help you get one step closer in preventing back pain by improving core strength and stretching what typically gets tight. It is important to work your abs and entire core area on a weekly basis. In addition, work on releasing any tight muscles and connective tissue. This can be done through daily yoga, mobility work and rolling out using a foam roller before each workout like this one. No exercise equipment is needed. All exercises use only your bodyweight. For best results, perform this stretch/core routine 3x weekly with a day off between sessions. Stay Strong Together, MICHAEL WOOD, CSCS Jefit
