If you are suffering from lower back pain, disc bulges or sciatica pain this routine is a must to watch.

As I promised here is the list of core exercises that you can try if you are suffering from disc bulges, sciatica or simply had a acute lower back pain.

List of the exercises that you must avoid while explaining lower back pain:

1- Plank:

Plank is commonly use as a core exercise. However if you are suffering from an acute lower back pain, disc bulges or sciatica pain plank is not a best exercise for your recovery. While doing plank you are activating your abdominal and lower back muscles and in many cases you even holding your breath. This simply tighten up those muscles and unfortunately the end results is more stiffness around the lower back which could aggravates yoru symptoms.

2- Crunches:

Crunches is another exercise that is only working on the abdominal muscles and in the acute phase of your injury we highly suggesting to avoid tensing those muscles.

3- Straight leg raises:

Straight leg raise is one of common exercises that many of you are doing as a core exercise. This exercise is activating your hip flexors and if you are suffering from lower back pain, it can agitate your symptoms and cause more pain and discomfort.

4- Hamstring Stretch:

If you are experiencing an acute lower back pain, in many cases your hamstring muscles can be tight and over protective. That means, your body tighten up your muscles around the lower back and the hip, and with bending forward and stretching yoru hamstring you will aggravates your symptoms. I would highly suggest to don't stretch your hamstring if you are suffering from lower back pain, disc bulges, or sciatica pain. Instead, you can strengthen those muscle group.

Here is an example of training routine that you can try while you experience lower back pain , disc bulges, herniated disc or sciatica pain.
