Decrease lower back stiffness ➡️ work on your hamstrings
Lower back pain when sitting is generally caused by staying too long in the same position and poor work set-up.
Another big cause of #backpain and also #neckpain is tight #hamstrings.
Repeated prolonged sitting will increase hamstrings #tightness.
And tight hamstrings will tilt your pelvis posteriorly and increase the stress in your lower back.
So work on your hamstrings to decrease back pain.
Try these easy exercises for a few days and see the difference:
- hamstrings stretching
- squat
- deadlift
And do not forget to move from that chair regularly!
