🚣🏼Bent Over Row with Resistance Band

A simple but classic exercise. You can also do this with dumbbells in each hand, or just work 1 arm at a time.

Match your breath to your movements to help retrain your abdominals and pelvic floor - super helpful after giving birth. When you exhale and pull against the band, your abdominals and pelvic floor should contract to support your torso.

Watch the video for all the instructions.

🧱👐🏼Wall Plank with Hand March Exercise

Another handy variation of the wall plank.

This adds a bit more movement and asymmetry to the exercise, while still being low impact and supportive.

Super helpful for rebuilding strength and confidence when you have back pain, or for postnatal recovery. This would also be suitable for most pregnancies.

How bad really is a slipped disc?

🧱 Wall Plank with Heel Pump

This exercise is a progression from the standard wall plank. It adds some movement to destabilise you and make you work a bit harder!

As always, the key is maintaining control of your posture with your abdominal muscles and breathing. Little exhales with each heel pump will really help.

Back pain and slipped discs can be scary.

Back pain is incredibly common, affecting around 80% of UK adults at some point in their lives, but a true disc herniation is pretty rare, affecting about 1% of the population.

MRI scans can be worrying but often just show normal, painless changes.

If you're dealing with back pain or sciatica, I can help you understand what's going on and get you moving again.

✔️Most people recover with time and appropriate movement.
✔️Most back pain sufferers do not need surgery.

The Wall Plank 🧱

This one is low impact, making it perfect for early recovery from pregnancy or back injury.

It can really pack a punch and test your muscles though - try holding this position for 30 seconds or more

💪🏼Wide Row with Resistance Band

A really helpful and straightforward exercise to help your shoulders and upper back. Use with your breath to also train your pelvic floor and abdominals.

I'm using a light band here and would usually try 3 X 30 secs or 3 X 8-12 reps.
