Relieve Low Back Pain | Reduce Low Back Pain | Canada's Leading Authority in Human Movement | Dev Chengkalath

You’ve taken the first two steps.

You’re educated about your problem. You’re well versed in the causes of your low back pain. You have the knowledge bombs needed to make the right choices and decisions.

Cognitively, you are ready to go. 

You’re also aware of the control issues at stake. You know you have to get your motor control back under your control. You know you have to assess and fix your posture, you know you have to balance your muscle imbalances, you know you have to optimize your mobility and you know you have to improve your movement patterns and break those bad habits. 

So what’s left?

Getting fit. 

The many benefits of getting in shape.

This really means undoing all those years of de-conditioning that you may have heaped onto your body.

De-conditioned simply means you’re out of shape. 

Being in a state of de-conditioning makes it harder for your body to deal with the daily stresses that it must face. This can include simple activities such as climbing the stairs, changing positions, lifting things, walking and yes, even sitting. 

If you’re not in the kind of shape you should be in, chances are, you’re using poor posture, your muscular system is not working on all cylinders, you’re not as mobile as you should be, and most certainly you’re using faulty movement patterns through compensation or bad habit. 

In order to help you fix your de-conditioning and all the other causes of low back pain, I’m going to re-introduce you to GOYA therapy.   

I discussed GOYA therapy a while back, but I think it is fundamentally important, not only for relieving low back pain, but for any physical therapy intervention for almost every single type of injury or corrective exercise program. 

Apply the principles of GOYA therapy wisely and consistently and you’ll soon see fitness levels that will astound even yourself .

Yours in fitness.

…for an A$$ kicking workout can be found in your own home. 

Now for some of you out there, you may prefer the gym.

The atmosphere. The sights. The sounds. The smells. 

I know I do.

I love the sound of iron clanging against iron. I love the feel of deep knurling ripping into the tender flesh of my palms (yes, I do have soft hands!). I love the look and feel of heavy plates and heavy dumbbells. The grunts and groans of effort (or attention seeking-look at me, look at me!).

I do admit however, the smells I could usually do without. I understand the deep human need to form habits, but seriously, after working out in a certain outfit, WASH IT! I don’t care if you wear the same baby blue T and Addidas shorts ever single day, just make sure you’ve killed the fungus that’s been growing on them.

Okay, now that my rant is over, here’s the point of this whole post. 

Not everyone has the luxury of being able to get to the gym as often as I do.

But…

If you can’t get to a gym, you have everything you need at home to get in phenomenal shape. 

A while back I talked about the ultimate home workout weight set.

If you didn’t catch that post, you can check it out HERE.  

I won’t rehash what’s been hashed (if I can even say that), but I will say that with the proper progression of bodyweight exercises, you can push yourself and achieve amazing results.

Using your body, and perhaps some household items, or even a few pieces of easily purchased equipment, you can create any number of workouts (limited only by your imagination!) that will help you burn body fat, build muscle and get in awesome shape.

All in the comfort of your own home.  

Stay tuned as I open your eyes to the incredible options available for bodyweight training over the next couple weeks.

There are big things coming your way…

 
Yours in movement.
