Lower Back Problems

Floor Based

Focus
Superset?:
Yes
Sprint-able?:

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Keep the lower half stable while the upper body rotates — or vice versa depending on the drill.
  2. 2. Feel the obliques and hip complex work together — this is a full-chain movement.
  3. 3. Exhale into the rotation; inhale to return.
  4. 4. Engage the core before initiating any movement.

Regression:

Practise the rotation pattern without load using a dowel to monitor spine position.

Progression:

Progress to a split-stance or single-leg position to reduce base of support and increase stability demand.

Common Problems:

One arm going slack mid-rotation — keep both arms engaged on the implement throughout.
