Killer Bs, strengthening your core (which includes your abs and glutes) can be the real key to preventing and alleviating SCIATICA pain. And thankfully, we don’t even have to get on the ground to get strong ABS!
Here are the FAST FACTS: ALL levels | ALL standing, NO equipment | BURN 50 – 100 calories | MODERATE day | INCLUDES warm up + cool down
We’re all standing, with no twisting and lots of verbal instructions on getting the most out of every exercise.
** Disclaimer: please see your doctor about YOUR specific low back pain for diagnosis and treatment, and follow the advice of your health care provider and/or physical therapist
We’re taking the pace way, way down today to really focus on pulling in our CORE muscles, which means this quick video can be used as a warm up for another sciatica-safe workout. It’s gentle enough to do every day, but also enough work to be a complete workout on its own.
