Back pain is a normal part of the human experience, even for trained people

But there are a lot of other factors you should watch out for.

Like if you're having more back pain than normal and you're thinking about your job or about your house, then that's a sign that an injury could happen. But the most common pain is in your lower back. It comes in many different forms and we all experience it in many ways. While a back injury might not be that serious, it can still have adverse effects on how we live our daily lives. Take a look at your back and the curve of your spine. Your back can't straighten without it. So the first thing your doctor will probably want to do is rule out any problems

In this guide, we'll show you how to tell if you're on the right track - and if you need to turn back. As with any other movement, your back will respond with pain when it is bent, twisted, or loaded in a way that forces it to work harder to stay straight and balanced. You also risk injury the more you try to straighten if it's not balanced to begin with. So, if you sit down a lot, if you lift things a lot, if you work on your feet a lot, or if you work in another way that puts a lot of pressure on the back, then these kinds of things are likely putting a strain on your back. You can avoid this by understanding what is good back strength and what isn't, and you can start working on strengthening the key back muscles that make your back strong. Most people have good back strength. It's the little things that make big things happen.

Here are five of the top exercises for back strength:

1. KNEELING ROWS
2. HIP EXTERNAL ROTATION
3. SQUAT DEEP
4. GLUTE BRIDGE
5. STANDING CALF RAISES KNEELING ROWS

This is a good exercise for a wide range of back strength. If you're short on time, just do a few sets of the kneeling rows in a day, but if you have the time, do multiple sets of two to three different exercises for two or three days in a row. Start on easy, progress to working with one arm at a time, and then work on doing double lunges. These are exercises that work your hips in three different planes, which will help build back strength. One good variation to add is using a jump rope during the rows. This works on the quads, on the inner front thigh, and on your lower back. Start on a wall when starting out. You could also work in a car, if you have a strong backrest and high seat, or on a sturdy chair. Focus on the contraction of your calves.
