for everybody plagued by back trouble, i think i may have found the answer. back problems have stopped me from getting into shape and have stopped me from doing what i love, brazilian jiu jitsu. i have not been able to train in either the gym or on the mat consistently for more than a month for 3 years now.
Foundation Training is the answer brehs and brehettes.
for 3 years since back surgery left me with a weak lower back, i have been researching how to fix my trouble. all signs and doctors pointed to working out my abs for a stronger core. WRONG.
according to the founder of FT, the posterior chain is the key to core strength. He says in his book that for every 1 ab workout, u must do 5 workouts for the posterior chain (hamstrings, glutes, low back)
in my experience this is true because whenever i do too much ab workouts and not enough low back stuff, i always get some back pain. his assertion is that if u tighten the abs too much, they pull u forward and stretch out the low back too much.
anyway, i bought his book on kindle and its really opened my eyes about back pain. i have been doing half of the routine im posting below, and i seriously feel stronger in a matter of a couple of weeks.
this video is the advanced version, so as it says in the beginning, DO NOT DO THE WHOLE THING IF YOU ARE A BEGINNER. if u do it wrong, it could fukk u up worse.
i have just been doing the good mornings plus this workout i got from rener gracie
start off slow with both and u will see results.
