The post Prehab Exercises For Lower Back first appeared on ScottThom.com.]]> Here are 4 prehab exercises that will improve your lower back strength helping to prevent injuries ie, “I threw out my back, picking up a pencil”. First off make sure you have a strong core, many low back injuries are due to a weak core. Everything is connected and if you have a weak link eventually something bad is going to happen. Secondly low back pain can be the result of tight hamstrings, glutes, and hip flexors. Make sure you have a good stretching and soft-tissue (foam rolling) routine in your daily game plan as well.
