Of all the conditions I treat in my physical therapy clinic, none are as prevalent as low back pain. In fact, it's estimated that about 80% of us will experience some form of significant lower back pain in our lives. That means if you haven't had it yet, chances are you will at some point in the future.

One of the best ways you can avoid lower back pain is to keep the muscles that support and stabilize your spine strong and healthy.

Today I wanted to share with you 5 of my favorite exercises that you can do at home with zero equipment required to strengthen and tone your lower back and help decrease and eliminate low back pain.

POSTERIOR CHAIN STRENGTHENING
One of the most-often overlooked muscle groups when it comes to lower back and core strengthening is the glutes. Your gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus attach to your pelvis and help to form the foundation upon which your lower back is built. If you want to strengthen your back and eliminate pain, it's imperative that we include exercises that strengthen your glutes as well.

HOW TO INCREASE LOWER BACK STRENGTH
The lumbar spine or lower back is an area not known for much motion. In fact, it is supposed to be a stable area that is less susceptible to injury and able to hold up to the rigors of heavier lifting and training. If your lower back is weak and required to do too much work, it can easily break down.
In order to work to its best, the low back has to get assistance from the glutes to help with extension of the posterior chain from the bottom up as well.
The muscles of the low back are asked to fire for long periods of time throughout the day. Often, they have become dormant and underactive because of prolonged sitting.
In order to keep them strong, it is important to regularly train these muscles and help to improve the endurance of them. The five exercises shown below will keep your back muscles strong without requiring any expensive or elaborate back extension machines or equipment.
