Improve Your Backbends with these 4 moves!

How do you make your backbends feel good and not bunchy or crunchy? Simple! Take the bend out of your lower back! 😆 The key is to improve the flexibility in your shoulders/hipflexor/upper/middle back so that the low back doesn't take all the pressure and do all the work!
Here are 4 movements, if done consistently, that help improve your back-bend practice!

[@emily_gymnastz]

Thank you for this video! I’m a gymnast and lost all my back mobility after an injury. It’s been my goal to get my backbend back for the last year but my upper back felt stuck and my shoulders painfully subluxed when pushing my shoulders over my hands in the backbend. Can’t wait to try this and share my progress!

[@julihato3411]

Thank you 🙏

This is such a great video! Also, your midfoot mobility (pointe) is incredible -- did you do anything to train/develop that?

[@chenquistador]

wow, this is great Jliou!! can you do a show us some stuff on Lumbar Multifidus strengthening, since I hear that muscle is usually impaired in people with chronic back pain??

[@cecilewajsbrod2314]

I wonder if your moves have something to do with the Ilana Bissonnette's method which seems to be very expensive. Ilana shows lots of testimonials and videos talking about the benefits of her method, but none of the videos shows us how to backbend and become flexible.

[@bhanusengar7909]

Janice I really like your videos and that's why I have For On Subscribe you .😊😊😊.It's a humble request to u have give a video for 4 moves that helps to improve your videos ,in similar way u can upload a video for 5 moves that increases Flexibility soon.And a chest stand if u can .Lots of love .God Bless.😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏

ok so i used to be really flexible but now when i try to do a backbend, my stomach feels like its stretching or like someone's pulling it. i dont know why.

That would be tight ab muscles
