Spine problems: how to solve them

Lately my back hurts. Is it possible to improve the condition of the spine with the help of some kind of training?

Experts are increasingly faced with the fact that young women, feeling discomfort in the back, go to the gym. There they are advised a certain set of exercises that will help strengthen the muscle corset. But often after a couple of months of training discomfort does not go away.

Why? The fact is that a woman pumps the wrong muscles that she needs to strengthen. Examination before going to the gym helps to take into account only contraindications, not indications. Therefore, in case of back problems, such averaged workouts do not give results. For example, often because of sedentary work, a person’s lower vertebrae refuse to work. Because of this, the spine begins to malfunction. The work of the “lazy” is taken over by the vertebrae-workers. They wear out faster. Discomfort occurs.

The coach’s task is make these vertebrae work correctly… Special simulators help in this, which literally “push” the desired vertebra, give it a certain load. As a result, the balance is restored. It was for the solution of individual problems of people that special techniques and simulators were created to strengthen the spine. Specialists and related equipment have already appeared in the capital’s fitness clubs.

• Five exercises for beautiful posture

Is it true that symmetrical loads in the gym are not suitable for all people? Allegedly, many need to load more on one side of the body and relax the other. How do you train then?

In life, we move as we are comfortable or as we are used to. And the load on the right and left sides is not evenly distributed. For example, a person constantly carries a bag in his left hand. Over time, the so-called vicious posture is fixed in him, when even without a bag, the skew of the body remains. Such a person needs to train his right hand more, since it is weaker than the left. And in order to even out the skew of the spine, it is necessary to load more left paravertebral muscles.

In several clubs in Moscow, it is already possible to undergo a spinal biomechanics examination. This whole procedure takes about ten minutes. The person is asked to bend over, sit down slowly and stand in front of a special XNUMXD camera. As a result of testing, a person receives not just a list of problems, but a detailed plan for their elimination, where exercises, their duration and intensity are prescribed. Subsequently, the trainer teaches and monitors the correctness of the exercises.

Ideally, you should train until a complete solution biomechanical problems. In this case, a repeated test should show that the person is moving correctly, and all the vertebrae are working harmoniously.

• How to prepare your back … for shopping!

I am still quite young, but I already have many problems with my spine. Where do they come from? What needs to be done to insure yourself against further deterioration of the situation?

Diseases of the spine are getting younger lately. And it is in women. Fashion is largely to blame: ladies wear high heels and big bags, make themselves silicone busts, bend their backs beautifully while walking, and also work for hours in the office. without getting up from the chair… This is where many problems arise.

When you put on high-heeled shoes, your body kind of rebuilds and takes on the wrong position. If you do not want problems with the spine, then try to change shoes during the day. You can simply keep two pairs of shoes in the office with different heel heights and heels. Heavy bags also require a special approach. Them better to throw from hand to hand. First, throw the bag over your shoulder, then wear it on your elbow, then take it in your hand. The same is for the other hand.

A separate conversation is about the “fashion” for big breasts. This is a significant load on the spine. Increasing a naturally small bust by a couple of sizes, a woman exposes the thoracic spine to a completely unusual load. If your breasts are naturally large, you should wear supportive underwear, undergo regular examinations and strengthen the muscle corset.

• Five minutes for the office back

I don’t have a very nice arch in my back. Can it be changed with training?

Today it is difficult to find a woman with the correct back arch. In most women, the lumbar deflection is too high, closer to the thoracic region. This indicates that the lower parts of the spine not active enough… It is them that need to be developed to form the lumbar deflection.

With the help of individual training, you can make the lower vertebrae work, pump up the necessary muscles. The back deflection will then change markedly. You no longer have to suck in your stomach – it will “fall” into place by itself.

Often, it is due to the incorrect position of the vertebrae that cellulite appears. This is because certain vertebrae not enough food. You can do body wraps, play sports, and anti-cellulite creams. Success is only temporary. After a while, the problem will still pop up.

The cause of the sagging abdomen and buttocks can also be looked for in the wrong position of the vertebrae. When there is an imbalance in the work of the spine, the pelvic bones are displaced. Because of this, a skin fold forms in the abdomen. Excess fat accumulates there. As a result, the same sagging tummy and buttocks appear. therefore before pumping the press and go on a diet, it is worth putting in order the spine.
