Struggling with Lower back pain
Struggling with lower back pain, poor core strength, or feeling unstable when you move?
In this video, we show you a simple but highly effective exercise to help strengthen your core, support your lower back, and improve control through your spine.
This movement focuses on controlled rotation through the lower spine while activating your deep core muscles, obliques, and pelvic floor—the key stabilisers that protect your back and keep you moving well.
What you’ll learn:
• How to control movement through your abdominals (not just “roll over”)
• How to activate your obliques to stabilise your spine
• How to progress the exercise safely as you get stronger
• How to engage your pelvic floor to support your lower back
As you build strength, you can progress by lifting your feet—but the key is control over range. Small, controlled movements done well will deliver far better results than big, uncontrolled ones.
This exercise is perfect for:
✔️ Lower back pain
✔️ Core weakness
✔️ Returning to exercise after time off
✔️ Adults over 50 wanting to stay strong and independent
At Lifestyle Essentials, we specialise in helping people over 50 move better, feel stronger, and stay independent for life.
