Strength has little association with low back health, in fact, many hurt their backs in an attempt to increase strength. It could be argued that exercise programs intended to enhance strength such as sit-ups both replicates an injury mechanism (specifically posterior disc herniation) and results in high loads on the spine. On the other hand, muscle endurance, as opposed to strength, has been shown to be protective of the spine. Further, for many, it is better to train for stability rather than stretching to increase range of motion.

Cat-Camel: I recommend that the routine begin with the cat-camel motion exercise (spine flexion extension cycles) to reduce spine viscosity (internal resistance and friction) and “floss” the nerve roots as they outlet at each lumbar level, followed by hip and knee mobility exercises. Note that the cat-camel is intended as a motion exercise - not a stretch, so the emphasis is on motion rather than “pushing” at the end ranges of flexion and extension. We have found that 5-8 cycles is often sufficient to reduce most viscous-frictional stresses. The cat and camel exercise is a motion exercise and not a stretch. Good form includes the integration of the cervical spine with the lumbar and thoracic spine. All three sections of the spine should be flexed and extended together. Stu Mcgill
