Bad back: stretch or "loading"

I often hear two stories from people with back problems:

1. The doctor advised me to stretch the muscles of the back (usually hanging on the bar, sometimes even to hang loads of extras).

2. The doctor advised me to "pump" the muscles of the back. And people literally straight with a sore back his bending and hyperextension.

 

One of you hanging on the bar to stretch the back?

When you hang on the bar, you have reduced reflex deep back muscles to stabilize the vertebrae. If you have a hernia, then the compression becomes larger.

By the way, in addition to the back in vis is still very much loaded shoulder joints, especially when you still love to tap-dance or to whirl from side to side. Remember — never do that.





If you want to pull and relax the back, it is best to choose the following:

1. Lie on a fitball (there is support).

2. Lie down in the fetal position (balasana).

 

Now let's talk about those whom the doctor advised to upload the back. In General, the recommendation is correct, but there is a BUT!

What usually appear pain in the back? Back pain can be a result of osteochondrosis, intervertebral hernia, diseases of the joints of the spine, inflammations in muscles and tendons, tumors, and investigation of problems of internal organs: heart, kidneys, etc. In fact, pain is perceived by the people equally, and the root cause can vary considerably. Therefore, first requires an accurate diagnosis of a specialist doctor.

Most often, people are faced with osteochondrosis.

Osteochondrosis – a disease of the spine, accompanied by structural changes of the intervertebral cartilage and bodies of the vertebrae, with the subsequent formation of bone spurs (osteophytes). Subsequently, bony growths, increasing in size, causing narrowing (stenosis) spinal canal and begin to exert pressure on the nerve roots, which increases with the displacement of the vertebrae relative to its anatomical position.

Natural reaction — the pain and spasms. This is necessary in order to immobilize the affected area and allow it to recover.

And now your back hurts and the doctor tells her to push. And on you its already a given area give the load. What's going on? Of course, even more spazmirovannah and pain.

What to do?

1. Give yourself a rest, went to the acute phase.

2. To help the back muscles to train the muscles that help to hold the correct body position. It is the muscles of the buttocks and the press.

When your buttocks and press low, the back is forced to do all the work. First, you need to strengthen your core and abs and then "upload" the back.

It is best to start with exercise:

  • bridge
  • goblet squat (there is no axial load) or a squat with cable pull
  • bar (only with good technique)
  • the reverse twisting.published
