Your back doesn’t hurt because you’re “getting old.” 👀
We’re not saying it gets easier to stay pain-free as we age — gravity always wins eventually. But here’s what we see every day in the clinic👇
• Young people with significant back pain
• Older adults with arthritis who move great and have little to no pain
The biggest common denominators aren’t age ❌
They’re 👉 how sedentary someone is and whether they consistently move, strengthen, and challenge their body.
Age is something we can’t control.
Activity, strength, and mobility are. 💪
Before blaming birthdays, here’s a great low back mobility routine you can start today.
