Back Pain From Rowing

As a personal trainer and fitness coach, one of the common complaints I get is back pain after rowing workouts. Especially if the workout is longer or particularly intense. The problem I see is less with the technique and more with the individuals ability to hinge and extend the hip. When we clean that up, their rowing technique improves and the back pain goes away.

In this video, I show you a simple and effective breathing exercise inspired by the Postural Restoration Institute to feel abs and get some expansion into the upper back.
