The result?

These muscles stabilize your spine with every movement, from something as simple as bending over to lifting the heaviest deadlift.

It\u2019s really that simple in 8 out of 10 cases I come across in my coaching.<\/p>\n<p>What I love about strengthening the lower back is that you see results quickly: better posture, less tension, and a stronger core. <strong>And honestly, who wouldn't want to stand up straight without even thinking about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Le_role_sous-estime_de_la_sangle_abdominale\"><\/span>The Underestimated Role of the Abdominal Muscles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>We too often forget that the back and the core work together.
