Low back feeling stiff after a long week? Let’s reset it. 🔄

If you’ve been sitting, lifting, traveling, or just grinding through a busy schedule, your low back might be tight and irritated. Try these simple movements to get things moving again:

✅ Sciatic Nerve Floss
Sit tall, straighten one leg, pull your toes toward you, and gently slump forward. This helps mobilize the nerve and reduce tension.

✅ McKenzie Press Ups
Lie on your stomach, hands by your shoulders, and press your upper body up while keeping your hips relaxed.
If pain increases after 10–15 reps, stop the movement.

✅ Trunk Rotations
On your back with knees together, slowly rotate your hips side to side to restore mobility.

✅ Banded Decompression + Breathing
Place a band around your waist, lie back, and let it gently decompress your spine while you focus on slow, controlled breathing.

Consistency > intensity. Small daily resets can make a big difference in preventing flare-ups.

If your back pain isn’t improving or keeps coming back, our team at FIT Iowa can help you find the root cause and build a plan that lasts. 💪

Your core is more than just abs 💪

At FIT Iowa, we train the entire core - abdominals (front), diaphragm (top), spinal erectors (back), and pelvic floor (bottom). When these four muscle groups work together, you create true core stability that directly impacts your performance in the gym and beyond.

For weightlifting, a properly functioning core improves bracing, bar control, force production, and spinal protection during squats, deadlifts, presses, and Olympic lifts. For runners, it enhances efficiency and reduces compensations. And in daily life, it supports better posture, breathing, and back health.

If your lifts feel unstable, your back fatigues quickly, or you’re dealing with pain, your core coordination could be the missing link.

Schedule a physical therapy evaluation with FIT Iowa and build a stronger, more resilient foundation for lifting, running, and everyday life.

Strong Core. Healthy Back. 💪🧠

Low back pain holding you back from workouts, running, lifting, or just daily life? Start here.

Dr. Alex Beltrame () is breaking down 4 beginner-friendly core exercises to help improve low back health, build stability, and support a stronger spine no matter your activity level.

✔️ Cat/Cow Flow - Improve spinal mobility and warm up your back
✔️ Dead Bugs (Level 1) - Build deep core stability while protecting your lower back
✔️ Bird Dog - Improve coordination, balance, and posterior chain activation
✔️ Side Plank (Level 1) - Strengthen your obliques and glutes to support your spine

These movements help activate your deep core muscles, increase blood flow, and improve lumbar stability, the key components for low back pain prevention and recovery.

Whether you’re getting back into fitness, training hard, or managing chronic back discomfort, a strong core is the foundation of a healthy back.

If you’re dealing with persistent low back pain, our physical therapy and chiropractic team is here to help.

Save this for later, try the exercises, and tag us when you do.

Low back pain isn’t random and it’s not something you have to “just live with.”

At F.I.T. Iowa, we treat the most common causes of lower back pain, including:

✔️ Mechanical strain (joints, muscles, posture-related pain)
✔️ Disc irritation (bulging or herniated discs)
✔️ Inflammatory back pain (arthritis-related stiffness)

If you’re dealing with stiffness in the morning, sharp pain when bending, or numbness and tingling down the leg, it’s time for a proper evaluation.

Our team combines chiropractic care and physical therapy in Iowa to create a treatment plan built around your movement, your lifestyle, and your goals.

Don’t wait for back pain to get worse.

Schedule your low back pain evaluation at F.I.T. Iowa today.
