Lower back issues.....

(1/1)

fast does lie:
I've never really had lower back issues. That is until recently when I had back muscles myofascial massage and it was good but it has caused some lower back issues.

I have very tight hips it seems and release point in hips helps a lot. But after a bit of sitting it starts to tighten up again.

Suggestions? Thank you

If my hip flexors are tight I have shocking lower back problems. Lucky for me it's simply a case of stretching out my hip flexors and that usually fixes the problems. My suggesstions would be:

- stretch hip flexors, calves, lats
- strengthen QL (this was a hidden issue for me for years)

I had lower back issues recently that I haven't had in 10 years due to my hip flexors being too tight. It was a combination of sitting too much and not stretching basically. Mine had nothing to do with lifting. I could still lift and play ball without issues. It caused me grief when sitting and sleeping though.

CoolColJ:
stretch and strengthen hip flexor
stretch lower back, it is usually tight if you sit a lot - sitting in a ATG squat position while rounding over stretches it
planks

glute bridges and holds - to activate glutes, and also stretches the hip flexors
