Back Exercises in Prone Position
Many exercises in the prone position may improve the strength of back muscles. This position is especially suitable for back extension exercises. The best example is the Cobra pose in yoga. Prone press-ups are another exercise to strengthen muscles on the back. You may improve the strength of hamstring muscles with many exercises in this position as well. With strong hamstrings, you may reduce the risk of anterior tilt of the pelvic area, which results in pain, tight back muscles, and lumbar spinal curve. There are many options to achieve this goal, such as exercises with balls, yoga block or using a Theraband. It is advisable to seek help and advice from your healthcare provider or a reliable physical therapist to design an exercise plan that suits your personal preferences and health conditions. [8]
