It’s important to stay active throughout the winter season to keep your spine strong and healthy. Keeping your spine strong and healthy helps to mitigate the risk of injury. Here are some workouts you can do at home this winter:
- Plank: Planks help to improve spine stability by strengthening your core and back muscles. Get into a forearm plank position and hold it for 20-30 seconds.
- Pelvic Tilts: Pelvic tilts help to improve spinal alignment and strengthen the muscles that support your lower back. Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the ground. Tilt your pelvis up slightly and hold for a few seconds then repeat 10 times.
- Glute Bridge: Glute bridges help to strengthen your glutes, lower back, and core. Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Lift your hips off the floor and create a straight line from your shoulders to your knees. Slowly lower your hips down and do this 10-12 times.
