Ok, so based on receiving exactly zero likes on that last post (DNS rolling presented by Charlie Weingroff and a bit of a history of neuromuscular reeducation), Ill keep the history lessons to a minimum ;) Today is a short and sweet post regarding the importance of avoiding low back flexion when under load. In this video internationally renowned spinal expert, Dr. Stuart McGill,fields a question regarding the infamous butt wink that is often seen when someone performs a squat. youtu.be/-X1GkG2YgXw This is yet another movement fault most commonly arising due to a combination of inadequate hip mobility and inadequate lumbar stability. Remember, using the Joint by Joint Approach to understand how a healthy body should be organized, a stable low back and pelvis moves on mobile hip joints. However, in people with malalignment and pain we very often see those relationships reversed. Tight hips and a compensatingly hypermobile low back is a recipe for decades of low back pain and degenerative disc disease, no matter how many massages and chiropractic adjustments you can squeeze in. Restore the proper stability/mobility relationships in the body and you will restore function AND comfort, with nary a butt wink in sight ;) Enjoy your weekend everyone!
