The most common exercise for low back pain.

The bird dog exercise is one of the most common exercises prescribed by rehab pros for low back pain and dysfunction. Even if you aren't in pain its a great drill to learn how to move your hips and shoulders off of a stable core. It can improve your shoulder stability for overhead pressing and even your hinge mechanics in a squat and deadlift. However, due to its popularity, it tends to be an exercise that is performed incorrectly more often than not. If you can master the positions of the bird dog you will undoubtedly get stronger faster by virtue of improved biomechanics.

Thanks a million for your illustration

[@wolfpowerpersonaltraining8660]

Amazing. I’ve been doing these for a couple years now and I feel this info will help me take it to another level

[@nicholaslalor5559]

It is a very good clip, nice points made - stable base and so on.

[@StevieSparkZ]

Very well explained and demonstrated.

[@SarahWilsonMySmartPuppy]

Excellent detail and demos. Thank you!

[@josephwilkinson1610]

Useful

[@ChipSpencer123]

I appreciate learning about the straight back

[@tomesky]

I did a leg work out recently which included rdl‘s, pistol squats and flamingo deadlifts and now I’ve had a really sore lower back for a week. I think it’s something to do with my hips.

[@lw7654]

Thank you soo much for this video. Not sure if you’ll answer, but can you do this everyday, and once or twice daily. Right now I’ll probably only be able to do the legs and once I have good form there, try for the arms. I have no spinal strength.

Subbed

[@mandov3411]

Can you do reps one side at a time or do you have to alternate?

[@andrewpeacock5751]

It's nice how these people answer people's questions in a timely manner isn't it? If you don't want to respond to people, turn the comments off.

[@davidobregon8451]

when would you recommend bird dogs vs deadbugs or do they serve the same purpose?

[@paladindanse98]

Do both

[@davidobregon8451]

alright thanks

[@PTownStrength]

I'd consider bird dogs a progression from deadbugs. Start with deadbugs

[@PTownStrength]

@Ghandi Blyat A contralateral deadbug and a bird dog are the exact same pattern inverted. The bird dog has few bases of support making it more difficult

[@SerenityLoman]

Can't do this with a bad wrist -_- Got any other ones/

[@andrewpeacock5751]

Left her twisting in the wind for a minute there. 🤡🤣🤡

[@stevemass8523]

That Cassy girl really got that coaching money

[@EnglishTheif]

Who's the model?

[@EfBEye888]

Someone please tell Cassie she can’t wear those glasses in videos anymore cause I just fell deeply in love and no longer can focus. Thanks

[@totallyraw1313]

What is it about her wearing glasses that makes you fall in love? I've always preferred girls who don't wear glasses. I think she would look better without them on.

[@EfBEye888]

Totally Raw not sure, haven’t gotten to that part of the syllabus with my therapist yet 🥴

[@Lanthiren]

@@EfBEye888 😂😂😂

[@antoniodelrey164]

Nice video but I would suggest NOT showing the incorrect way, only show the correct way. Showing incorrect ways can plant an incorrect seed in the way it’s done. Emphasize the correct way only.
