Postural Exercises Prone Lat Pull Downs

Postural Exercises Prone Lat Pull Downs can help develop and stabilise the muscles inside the shoulder blades and promoting a better upper back posture.

Shoulders can regulalry be hunched up and develop shoulder, upper back and neck pain or tightness. This can often develop due to stress, bad work station design or simply a lack of stability for the muscles which pull the shoulder blades downwards.

Prone Lat Pull downs can help target the low trapezius muscles, rhomboid muscles and rear deltoid muscles which can pull the shoulder blades backwards and downwards into a better posture thus preventing postural related upper back conditions.

The best exercises for low back and core stability – Both Sided Dead Bug

Here is the both sided or “Bilateral Dead Bug” which is one of our exercises for low back pain. The development of both sides at the same time is harder along the progression from the normal Dead Bug. It should only be attempted when the Dead Bug is pain free and easy….or becoming no challenge any more. By improving CORE strength you can prevent further low back pain and improve your performance in every day activities.

The Bilateral Dead Bug again should be done in 3 x 8-10 reps and can have dumbbells added if needed.

Oh and wait there is still a further progress to come

Enjoy…….
