Lumbar Spine [Low Back] Training: Start Here

 

What is the Lumbar Spine?

The lumbar spine is the bottom section of your spine located between the thoracic spine (i.e., mid-back) and the tailbone. It consists of five vertebrae, labeled L1-L5, that are stacked on top of each other, with intervertebral discs filling the space between each vertebra. The muscles that articulate to the lumbar spine along with the vertebra provides support for the upper body. A primary function of the lumbar spine is to bear the weight of the upper body and to absorb that load and distribute it into the hips and lower extremities.

Understand: The lumbar spine consists of five joints, and joints are trainable.

What is Joint Specific Training? 

Training is the mechanism that stimulates change (+) by performing work.

Joint training is performing specific work that changes the physical state of the joint to have:

 Increased Joint Space

↑ Improved Connective Tissue Architecture + Load Bearing Capacity of Joint Capsule

↑ Increased Muscular Work Capacity  

 

Understand: Joints are plastic to training, and joint-specific training WILL elicit positive multifaceted effects to change the physical state of the joint in ways that increase: function, fitness, and health.
