Back pain
Back pain usually occurs due to weak glutes muscles. According to a research bad posture while sitting causes glutes muscles to work more than their limit. Which leads to weak gluteus minimus and gluteus maximus. This puts your lower back to work rather than leaving it on glutes muscles. Leading to intense back pain. There are many physiotherapists out there who suggest sitting as less as possible but this is not advice which you can follow. Most of our work requires sitting at a table to study or to sit in front of a computer to write a blog like I am doing right now. I rather suggest you sit in a good posture for avoiding load on your lower back. You can sit in a good posture but sitting for a longer period still present the danger of weakening your glute muscles.
There is only one way through which you can get rid of the back pain is by strengthening the muscles of the buttocks. There are some compound movements that do work the muscles of the buttocks. The best example will be the back squat. Back squat works your quads, hamstrings, and most glutes muscles but you should know the right technique and right way to perform a squat. But they do not especially work your gluteus minimus and gluteus maximus. You can try to do more advanced exercises like the deadlift and Romanian deadlifts. To strengthen your hamstrings and glutes but these are complex movements that should not be performed by beginners.
Top5 Exercises for glutes muscles
1.Bird dog
2.Cat cow
3.Dead bugs
4.Superman
Superman is pretty much recognizable to the first movement we talked about. It strengthens your glutes. You may feel a little bit of strain in your back if your glutes are weak.
5.Back extension
This is the last exercise in our count because it should be done after every workout. Back extension stretch all the muscle of your back. It’s very like the movement you do in yoga. It also stretches all the muscles of your core. You can perform this movement as the only exercise you for during your back pain. This movement is very relieving for the back pain.
