Took me years to realize flexing my abs and keeping them tight during my squat relieved my lower back tightness that I would get. Thank you for validating this.

When I was a teenager and I first started getting into weight lifting, ALL the time people would "correct" my squat form by telling me to pull my chest up as much as possible, and to flair out my ass.... Here I am at 22 years old finding out why the fuck my lower back has been in agony all this time.. Thank you man ❤

Wow - my abs are completely relaxed when squatting…no wonder my lower back in in pain.

GOLLY, this helped me soo much in the middle of my set! Appreciate it.

Wow - thank you for sharing this. This took any pain away from my lower back. Thank you.

Had been doing good no back pain in years and today it came back, glad i seen this, definitely worked. I can get a few more sets without gettimg hurt and work on that from here on out

Thank you so much! Just tried and it helps tremendously. Barely feel it in the lower back anymore🙏

Thanks mate, just had the worst back pain for the last few days, this helped alot

This was 100% my problem. Thank you!

Did squats for the first time yesterday after a year of training. I approached it as all the other exercises - chest out - now my back hurts. Thank you alot for sharing, will try it next leg day.

Wow nice tip

I’m currently sitting in pain trying to figure out the right technique and I now know why squat belts exist

When I squat I fret to brace my abs and I didn’t realize how important it is because it really does take away strain from lower back. Very useful tip I weigh 148 and I be doing squats at like 275 lbs and it just destroyed my Back cause I don’t brace my abs

Fucking hell man I didn't know you had to do all that for a squat, no wonder my lower back hurts lol. I never understood about chest and hips really, I did know you need to breath in and push your core out but I was never making my ribs rest on it. I thought it was the issue of me moving my hips forward. It's all about resting on the core, and actually using it lol. Just now my lower back was hurting so much on the 185s, now I'm doing 225 and it's pain free. My legs can handle heavy weight but my lower back just simply can't, but ty. I've been training these stabilizing muscles but never really used them. Thanks dude

So, now i already have a back pain, should i continue squat but using this tips, or should i rest?

I’ve tried that , it doesn’t work with me. I still get long lasting pain. I’ve even experimented with a back brace . I’ve watched dozens of you tube videos regarding proper form. Somehow I must have a prior injury or condition??

Thanks

but for some reason i find it hard to brace my abs like i just can't feel it lol , need some video on that

What if i wear a lifting belt? Would this also help fix this issue?

@SolvingPainWithStrength

Жыл бұрын

Lifting belts can help provide support but don't 'fix' the issue. I would focus on form and stability first.

So your abs should be engaged or flexed during the whole rep ideally? Both on the down movement and up?

Yep, abs should be braced throughout movement to provide spinal stability

Sounds like you’re building muscle 💪🏻. If it doesn’t improve I would have someone check it out.

Does it apply to squat machine as well? Sadly, even using a machine i get low back pain 😢 I'm considering ditching the gym and just walking and cycling because nearly all exercises targeting core muscles hurt my lower back. Sometimes it hurts for weeks and nothing really helps, it always comes back

Most likely has to do with form. If you can find someone to check your movements before going heavy that would help

The squat is a full body movement that uses a lot of muscles. Hard to say without seeing your squat.

My back literally snapped due to this Its only muscle strain tho Takes more time to recover

For the ab “brace” do you hold your breath or just tighten your an area??
