A basic core exercise everyone with back pain NEEDS to know!
Dead Bug:
Lie flat on your back with your hips and knees bent to 90 degrees and your straightened arms reaching toward the ceiling, palms facing each other. “Tuck your tail” to flatten your lower back into the floor. Simultaneously slowly lower one arm and the opposite leg back down toward the floor. Return to the start position and repeat with your opposite limbs. Avoid arching your back, and keep your core braced throughout this movement
