Best Exercise to Relieve Low Back Pain: Hip Hinge

http://devchengkalath.com

The Hip Hinge Physical Therapy Exercise Described By Toronto Physiotherapist Dev Chengkalath:

This movement exercise is fundamental to protecting your low back from aches and pains as it teaches you to move efficiently at the hips while sparing your spine from unnecessary trauma.

Start in a full kneeling position, with your buttocks resting on your heels.

From this position, drive yourself up to your knees by forcefully contracting through your glutes.

Lower yourself back to the starting position under control and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Do not allow any movement to take place in your spine. All movement should take place at the hips only.

Key Points:

-start in a full kneel position, sitting on your heels
-forcefully contract through your glutes to an upright kneel
-lower back to the starting position under control
-don't allow any movement through the spine
-only move through your hips
-breathe normally
