Back pain can be caused by many different reason but one of the most common is just tight muscles. Warming up and stretching before and after you workout even if you're just walking on a treadmill can do wonders to relieve tightness in your lower back, glutes and hamstrings.
2. CRUNCHES
Crunches, planks, sit ups, back extensions, whatever you have to do to get a stronger core and abdominals so that your lower back does not have to strain to overcompensate.
3. FOAM ROLLER
This little piece of hard foam can work magic! It creates what is called a Myofascial release that basically means relieve muscle tension.
4. BETTER SHOES
Proper running shoes, walking shoes, work shoes whatever shoes, can provide better support, shock absorption and body alignment for whatever activity your doing. The best place to go get advice about what shoe you should get besides your doctor is an exclusive running store like a New Balance or Sacony because they train their staff on real foot care while places like Footlocker simply do not.
4.5 GET SOME HELP
Having a personal trainer That Actually Knows What They Are Doing to show you proper form and lifting techniques can be the difference between a great day at work and a call off because you're in so much pain you can barely get out of the bed.
