Conquer Lower Back Pain with Proper Deadlift Technique

Deadlifts, when performed with proper form and technique, can be a powerful tool in alleviating lower back pain. By engaging the core muscles and strengthening the posterior chain, including the lower back, hamstrings, and glutes, deadlifts promote spinal stability and support. However, it's essential to ensure correct form and gradually increase weight to avoid exacerbating existing pain and injuries.
