The farmer's carry is a highly effective core exercise that not only helps with back pain but also improves stability, balance, and posture. By walking a set distance while carrying two weights, such as kettlebells or dumbbells, this exercise engages multiple muscle groups and provides a fat-burning metabolic conditioning workout. It is particularly beneficial for desk workers who struggle with poor posture. Adding the farmer's carry to your core workout can lead to stronger abs, reduced back pain, and improved overall functional fitness.
Dr. Mandell, a chiropractor with a large following on TikTok, shared a 30-second spine stretching hack to correct hunchback posture and alleviate pressure on the spine. The stretch involves placing your hands behind your neck, elbows against a flat surface like a wall or door, and leaning forward to hyperextend the spine. Dr. Mandell recommends doing this exercise three times a day for 20-30 seconds each time to improve posture and relieve back pain.
