7 Common Exercises that Can Worsen Lower Back Pain
Many people train with dedication but repeat small execution mistakes that can overload the lower back without realizing it. In this illustrated guide, the monk shows 7 very popular exercises that deserve attention: deadlift, traditional sit-up, straight leg raise, squat, toe-touch with swing, trunk rotation with weight, and leg press.
For each exercise, you will find what it is, why it can be risky when performed incorrectly, the most common mistake, and a safer alternative to discuss with a professional. ‘Risky execution vs safer execution’ figures help you see the difference in practice.
The ebook also brings:
• a clear explanation of why the lower back is so sensitive;
• everyday mistakes, such as sitting for hours and self-medicating;
• warning signs that indicate when to stop and seek care;
• a quick checklist to review before training.
Everything is presented by a monk, an illustrative character that reinforces a simple idea: before moving your body, get informed.
Accessible language, without complicated jargon, in a 14-page material to consult whenever you have doubts.
Recommended for those who train at the gym, at home, or outdoors and want to learn how to move with more awareness and fewer risks.
