Simple Lower Back Exercises for Seniors (Lumbar Spine Exercises) | More Life Health

Wow! I learned 2 new gentle stretches: hamstring stretch and palms on lower back. I do a LOT of sitting for work & the last 3 years & after hitting 60 I’ve noticed that my body isn’t able to cooe with being sedentary. Thankfully I was very active in sports & my muscles are remembering and reacting very positively & my lower back pain is responding well to these stretches coupled with back muscle toning exercises. Thank you for putting this video together.

After watching the first back exercise on the floor, I can tell you this: you need about 40 years on you to tell yourself that “Hey, maybe I should include the part of the regimen where getting BACK UP again is not possible…”

You are a lifesaver!

My lower back is always pretty cranky, this helped, thanks Mike..

Thanks Mike much appreciated your excersises are super
Thanks from Ireland

Thanks, my first time doing this exercise and my back feels great thanks again

buttocks to the ground?? Any standing or seated versions of these exercises?

How old is "senior"?

The standing and seated exercises are helpful, thanks. I tripped over the other week and sprained both hands, hurt both knees. So I can't get down on the floor (or more precisely, up off it again!) to do the floor exercises. Have been looking for something seated or standing...

Really love these exercises - they are perfect for me. Thanks so much x

You're very good at describing and demonstrating too.

Hi, l like this group of exercises! I'm 71 with lower spine arthritis/etc 😢. These are safe and helpful. 😁👍🏆!

Will this work for a non surgical fatty tumor on the lower spine

Bridging exercise worsens acid reflux, I stopped doing it.

If I get on the floor, I can't get up. Will try them on the bed.

what if you are not able to get down on the floor very well

What????? This is supposed to be for seniors. Some seniors can't get on the floor to do this. WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?

Please let me fix your audio too much Echo

Mike, how many reps should I be doing?

Nice n easy, ty

Thank you so much I feel so much better 😊😊😊😊😊

Thank you, my back was really hurting and it was not improving on pain from when the pain began for over a week. Half way into the stretches I could feel the tension in my back release noticeably. Now I can make it to my job/hobby with a much more positive attitude. I will pull you up and do these stretches daily. Again thanks so much 🙏

Haha for seniors--many seniors would not be able to get back up from the floor.

Thank you, these are great exer ices

👍

Good video I hope it helps. I suppose we should do this once aa day .

I have trouble getting down, anything standing or sitting, till I can get down

Hey Mike, excellent video. A suggestion: in your video editing, perhaps you can use some 'arrows' to point / highlight the areas that you are focusing on (especially when you are holding in a position) so that we can get a better idea what exactly are working on. Thanks.

You need to fix your sound quality your audio is awful

Your the bomb. Thanks

How do i buy core strength videos?

Is your book digital?

With a bad back how do you get down on the floor and get up if I was able to get down on the floor I would not need you

Can you use a small pillow under your head?

What can I do if I can't lay on the floor? If I get on the floor I have a hard time getting up I'm 70 years old!

Very Good exerciese 👍👍🇵🇰🇵🇰❤️❤️

Very thankful I came across this video and your app. Being older, having health issues and trying to lose weight and regain some agility and strength don't seem to blend well ..lol but the latter are very needed. Did the stretches and will continue; as I can tell they will be very beneficial. Will be cking out more of your videos as well. Thanks for the time spent to help those of us in need! God Bless!

The subtitles covers the demonstration part of video , so not much can be seen.
Is it possibile to take od the subtitles off?

Hi Mike
Thank u very much I appreciate u very very beneficial exercises 👍👌

Hi Mike. Love your excersises, I do periferal newopathy. Once a day. I need urgently excersises for osteoporosis. I'm over 80. Could I also please have your excersise book. Many thanks, and gratitude

I have had piriformis syndrome quite severe for at least 30 years. I came to the point where I was going to request a steroid shot, but it's not just a simple shot as the piriformis is so deep. The exercises for that used to help, but they don't anymore. I now have arthritis in my tailbone and pretty intense pain from that. Sometimes it's hard to tell which one is hurting more. I sit a lot for my work and my posture needs improvement. Just doing these exercises along with you I could feel that it is hitting all the right spots!! I feel these two problems are closely related and just doing exercises for one is the reason why I'm not benefitting. Hoping I'm right, I'll be doing this video every day for 30 days. Hoping for the best!!

Just started on your exercises. Very clear instructions. Feel I needed to start stretching my back etc. having been suffering with sciatica and back pain for 8 years. They feel good. Can I do every day or is that overkill?

Hi Mike
This is my first visit here and really enjoyed the video. I was wondering though if you have any exercises for tight hip joints? I think it was Exercise 6: Glute Medius stretch - 30 seconds each side that I tried to do and failed as I wasnt able to get my ankle over the other knee and stretch forward. My hip joint felt too tight. :(

This is great for my back!!!!!!!! Thanks so much! 🤠❣️

Thank you, Mike, for all the great exercises of 2021. Best wishes for a healthy and prosperous 2022! 🏃‍♀️🏆🎖

Hi Mike, don't know what I am doing wrong. When I do Standing Lumbar extension , shoulders move up and there is pressure on my neck. Thanks so much for making us seniors move:)

This Exercise was exactly what I needed tonight. The plants are small and I can tell it’s an older video, but it was exactly what I needed and helped a lot. Thank you again, Mike. Don’t know what I do without you! OK

I suffer from hernias that are torturing my lower back, so i don't want to go too hard with things that could end up injuring me. Do you think these light exercises will work for me?
