[QUOTE="Balkan, post: 1061360, member: 7550"] I've never had lower back issues but I do prophylactically stretch/strengthen it whenever I do heavy lower body compounds. Here are my favorite 3. 1) Hanging out at bottom rep range of hyperextension. I gyrate around and search for kinks similar to when foam-rolling. Do some bodyweight reps with very slow negatives. Play around with the motion until you find your soft spots. 2) Lie on your back and bring your legs over your head so your toes touch the ground. Ideally, your knees touch the ground too. It looks like you're giving yourself a bj. 3) Reverse hyper on yoga ball. [url=http://i.imgur.com/1CytqyM.jpg]Click here for picture[/url]. Hopefully some other guys will drop in with their go to stretches/rehab/prehab exercises. If any of the above was confusing, let me know and I can clarify. Edit: A point I was trying to make but couldn't figure out how to word was that some of the best stretches are not static stretches but very conscious, often slow, movements through actual exercises that target that bodypart.
