Sitting all day? An expert recommends this 3-move workout for lower back relief

Whether you’re a home worker or student studying, the likelihood is that you spend eight hours (if not more) plonked at your desk. No wonder that by the end of the day your lower back is screaming at you for some much-needed movement. Sound familiar? Thankfully, Personal Training duo, Milad and Ryan, founders of Tailored Fit PT, have shared a three-move bodyweight workout that can help – and it's centred all around your core.

You may be wondering: how does core strength and lower back pain correspond with one another? “Lower back pain often stems from a lack of core strength and endurance,” Coach Milad writes on his post. “Your core is crucial for stabilizing the spine and absorbing force, preventing unnecessary strain on your lower back.” If your core isn’t strong, you’ll find yourself more likely to slouch too, which can further exacerbate back pain.
