This bodyweight Pilates Mat routine is designed to target mid-lower back pain using some classic exercises with a therapeutic twist. Begin with spinal stabilization exercises for the hip flexors and transverse abdominis and move into a mobility practice for lumbar extension using the sponge ball.
As we transition to ower back exercises, we will begin by training the spinal extensor muscles in neutral. The second half of the workout is dedicated to active trunk extension with backbend variations With greater strength in more joint positions, there will be less restriction and pain.
