Overview:

Today's episode is all about uncommon ways to assess low back pain. OB and Smitty dive into three new assessment tools that are incredibly easy to you, while also extremely effective in targeting direct cause of low back pain. While being useful for trainers, coaches, and physical therapists, this episode shines a light on tools the everyday gym goer can use to empower them to take ownership of their own physical health and staying pain free.

In addition to assessing the low back, this episode explains how to use one of the most effective breathing assessments while covering corrective exercises that target your diaphragm. This knowledge will help you breathe better, unblock hidden movement potential, and even decrease resting anxiety rates.
