Beat Back Pain

You can exercise religiously, do yoga and follow every single one of your doctor’s recommendations, but if you do not pay attention to structural imbalances in your body, at some point, your lower back is destined to cause you problems. In many daily activities, we simply underuse our muscles (connective tissue) and overuse our joints.



For example, walking poorly, as the majority of us do without realizing, is hard on the weight bearing joints of the spine, hips, and knees, which deteriorate with each step we take. It may also leave the gluteal and thigh muscles underutilized which will directly lead to back pain. That's why among many things in this book, you are going to learn how essential the gluteal muscles are for keeping your back healthy.
