Ease Back Pain With These 3 Easy-To-Do Exercises
Did you know that it's expected that 8 out of 10 Americans will suffer from back pain at one time in their lives or another?
I don't want that to be you!
Back pain can be nagging and relentless. It's no fun AT ALL.
That's why today I'm giving you three simple exercises you can do anytime and anywhere that will help ease any discomfort in your back.
Here they are:
1. Hip rolls. Ever played with a hula hoop? This is pretty much the same movement. Start with your feet shoulder-width apart. Place both hands on your hips. Now push your hips forward. Roll them out to the left. Then back. Then to the right. Then forward. Do left hip circles 10 times. Then roll to the right 10 times.
2. Waist twists. Start with your feet shoulder-width apart. Let your arms hang by your sides. Now start twisting from your waist. Go to the left first. Twist as far as you can go and look as far back as you can. The momentum will naturally bring your hands around. Let them gently touch your lower back at the end of the full twist. Now unwind and start twisting to the right. Again, look as far back right as you can. Let the arms swing and touch your lower back. Do this 10 times.
3. Knee bends. Try this one out with a support (like a table, desk or chair) first. Keep your feet shoulder-width apart. Now bend at the knees and gently go as far down as you can go. Now stand back up and return to the starting position. Repeat this one 10 times. Remember to go slow and easy on this one. Inhale as you bend down and exhale as you push yourself back up.
You'll want to do these exercises at least three times a day for maximum benefit. They'll get your blood pumping and help give you that pain relief you're looking for.
