Jennifer. Another example of how deadlifts can give you a solid foundation and give you strength you never knew you had.
5x5 @ 150lb great work!

Deadlifts are the foundation of any strength and conditioning program. Highly effective, yet highly dangerous for the beginner.
I didn’t start out lifting , I started out with small kettlebells and worked my way up with some coaching from fellow trainers, after studying tirelessly about strength and conditioning.
205lbs is definitely not something I will brag about, but it is pretty good for someone who mostly surfs and skateboards and who doesn’t particularly love being in a gym.
It’s a testament to how a strength and conditioning program dialed in by an experienced professional can help you continue to do what you love to do and !!!

Do you workout a lot and get low back pain? Chances are, your pelvis is tilted during some (or all) of your exercises!

Here we have my client Jennifer. When I met her, I saw her doing an exercise and could tell that her pelvis was anteriorly (forwardly) tilted while performing her movement.

In this exercise—overhead press—the first picture shows her glutes and her core “turned off.” In the second picture it shows her drawing her hips up towards her rib cage (using her glutes and core), thus straightening out her alignment in her spine and stabilizing her pelvis!

Give it a try and see how that lower back feels now!
