In this episode, Dr. Sebastian Gonzales DC breaks down the three most commonly recommended exercises for lower back strength, as listed by major fitness websites: the bird dog, deadlift (with good form), and the superman. While two of these have strong biomechanical backing, one raises a red flag—especially for those with disc-related pain or sensitivity to lumbar extension. Dr. G shares his professional perspective on why the glute bridge is a smarter, safer alternative to the superman and how it better engages key stabilizing muscles without provoking pain. This is a must-listen for anyone recovering from low back issues or coaching people through spine-safe core work.
