Nearly 85% of the population suffer from lower back pain. Are you one of those sufferers?
I am.
My friend Sam is a strength and conditioning coach and he assessed the cause of the problem. It was a knee injury from 36 years ago. Ironically I get no pain from the knee but as a result of the ligament damage the left side of my body had to compensate for the weakness in the knee.
Result?I have a displacement in my left hip.
Consequences? Daily pain.
Remedy? Specific exercises to make me more flexible so I have a wider range of motion.
I have read a lot about back pain and if you suffer from it I am sure you have too.
Sam is going to work out some exercises which will suit me and once again get me into a position where I can walk down the street without stopping every 20 yards to stretch and ease the pain.
You know the feeling.
I will be playing the interview I had with Sam on Mix and Match this Saturday at 3pm on Siren 107.3FM and sirenonline.co.uk
I hope it helps you.
