Click Here for a FREE 15 min Zoom Consultation With Brad:


Brad Williams, host of the Over 40 Fitness Hacks podcast, shares his journey and routines for managing lower back pain, a common issue for many over 40. Brad, having experienced two surgeries due to his own back issues, emphasizes understanding the cause of the pain, advocating for a slow recovery process and seeking professional guidance like physical therapy or chiropractic care.

Brad highlights the importance of identifying the source of the pain, citing an instance where his wife's hip mobility issue was the cause. He stresses the significance of slowing down post-injury to allow proper healing and recommends adhering to physical therapy exercises while exploring additional approved routines.

He discusses various exercises that helped him significantly, such as the 90-90 test for hip mobility, unconventional exercises from ATG Physical Therapy, and decompression methods like hanging from a bar. Additionally, he shares insights on optimizing sleep positions, discovering that aligning his hips, rib cage, and shoulders greatly improved his morning stiffness.

Brad delves into strategies for thoracic mobility, suggesting exercises like foam rolling and threading movements. He encourages the creation of a routine and advises tracking progress in a journal to ensure consistency.

He empathizes with others suffering from lower back issues, offering a free consultation and emphasizing the importance of professional guidance while encouraging perseverance in finding personalized solutions. Brad's experiences underscore the value of a comprehensive approach to managing and alleviating lower back pain for those navigating similar challenges.
