Are you looking to strengthen your lower body and protect your lower back? Then this video is for you! Join me for a lower body strength workout using compound exercises. When doing exercises that use multiple muscle groups at once (compounds), you increase your overall strength and coordination and train your body functionally.
To start, we’ll begin with a core series to warm up before the workout and help bulletproof your lower back. These core moves dubbed the McGill 3, are recommended by renowned expert Dr. Stuart McGill and are some of the best exercises for core stability.
This workout is suitable for all levels and is osteoporosis-safe.
