Suspension Training Mountain Climbers are a great exercise to strengthen the abdominals and low back muscles.

A great exercise using your own body weight and a dynamic exercise which uses core stability during movement.
Side Plank Rotation Exercise demonstrated by Brighton Chiropractor Matt Bateman. The side plank exercise is a great exercise to help stabilise the core while moving dynamically. It will strengthen the abdominals, gluteal and low back muscles which can prevent epsisodes of back pain and improve performance in other activities.
This is a good alternative to a normal plank as the movement is more realistic to everyday activities where we move twist and lift our body weight as opposed to holding a stiff rigid posture.
Please complete within pain free range of motion and stop if any back issues or pain occurs.
The Cat Camel Exercise is a great low back pain exercise for mobilising and improving the flexibility of the mid-low back and pelvis. This exercise shows how to mobilise the back without placing too much stress over the low back joints.
Complete the exercise when you are looking recover from an episode of back pain or preventing back pain occuring in the future.
