How to Keep Your Back Strong
No matter what your favorite outdoor sport is you rely on your back and your core to perform. Too often bikers, hikers, runners and other outdoor athletes complain about low back pain associated with their activity. In this episode of the Outside Health and Fitness Podcast I am so excited to bring you my conversation with Dr. Barry Goodman. Barry is an outdoor athlete and knows first hand how to keep your back strong for outdoor sports. As a Chiropractor with over 30 years of experience he’s seen it all.

On today’s show you’ll learn:

…sport specific stretches you can do before and after your next hike, bike ride or ski trip to warm up and cool down properly;
…how to strengthen your core and the muscles that protect your back;
…how to take care of your back when you’re being active and having fun outside.
