- LOWER BACK PAIN - WHY CAN'T I STAND UP STRAIGHT?
It is a very common, but no less painful and infuriating, problem associated with lower back pain.
But what makes it happen?
What can be done to relieve the pain and fix the underlying problem?
I look at what causes the issue and give you two exercises to help.
The first will help with reducing pain and soreness so that you can move again.
The second will help to fix the underlying issue and lay the foundation for a stronger, more robust and pain free lower back.

I cannot say how grateful I am to watch this video and to make the exercises. I went from two days hunched over to standing immediatelyafter this video. Been doing it for four days straight and improvements along with pain relief. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
Great video, sir!! You described my issue perfectly! I'm hoping your advice will affectively help release the tightness. Thanks again!!
This has begun to help me stand with some improved posture after two weeks of exercise.This information is very good and very helpful and will improve you. 10/10
Thank you so much, very helpful🙏🏽
Nice video thank you so much.
Great video - I injured my back a week ago doing deadlifts and power cleans during a workout. I could not stand straight and was in extreme pain with my lower back. I followed the exercises and incorporated Stuart McGills big 3. In a week I was able to get back into training with scaled workouts. Thank you very much for posting the video 👍
Thank you so much this has helped loads.
Same here, properly did something to my back while exercising (wrongly) and the first bit immediately unlocked something and got me standing straight again. Thanks!
Everything you mention is exactly what I'm going through. I can't stand up straight, Very unstable and in constant pain in the areas you mentioned. I'm just 61 and people older than myself walk better than I do. Thank You so very much. You have saved me a lot of money from having to go to physical therapy that my insurance won't cover.
Lind95 MG No worries.
Have a look at trying some glute bridges, level 1 side-bridges and level 1 bird-dogs - in my playlist for back pain fundamentals.
Should help you build the back stronger and more robust for day to day life.
Lind95 MG I’m 13 and I have it
I'm 25 and i can't even walk at all right now. I'm fucking dying here.
Thankyou very much. Provided instant relief
Thankyou for this. I have been unable to stand straight for two days. I did this and am now standing vertically. I will continue to do this exercise daily. I can’t thank you enough.
Thank you so much! I couldn’t stand up straight! This helped so much I can stand again! Can’t thank you enough!!
Yooo thank you so much I was unable to stand yesterday and this helped tremendously. I was surprised at how hard it was to flex my knee at first with my quads against the roller and how much it burned but now I’m standing upright and feel stable literally after just a few sets. I’ll continue doing this to try and get back to 100%.
Here after an L5-S1 herniation having spent 2 days in hospital. Still on morphine.
This is the first video that understands that I cannot lie flat, let alone begin arching my back backwards.
Thanks dude.
what is it like? for a month now i’ve been suffering with something that sounds like this too. i can’t lie flat cuz it puts pressure on my erector area and i cannot arch my back at all. i just feel this stabbing right feeling in my glute and one physio guy said it might even be piriformis syndromes but i don’t think that would restrict me from being capable of standing upright
Very informative thank you. I'm a 38yo male and tweaked my back recently, leaving me bent forward for two weeks. I'm 6'3 with a skinny core and almost non-existent obliques. No pain for me though, just the bending and inability to stand upright. Will definitely be incorporating this into my routine! I feel better already!
If you want to improve your performance in bed, then using a good erection dysfunction treatment solution like *4NaturalEdCure. Com* is suggested. I`m very happy about having found it because I was trying to get over my incapability to sustain at attention. This guide has been a way for me to feel good every single night.
Thank you so much for this video! I can stand up straight again after few minutes of the exercise!
I've always had back ache due to my construction job and training. But as I've gotten older my lower back seems to lock up a lot more.
I've see osteopaths, chiropractors, masseuses.. I do try to stretch out and I use a foam roller too. But I just did the quad roll you showed there, with the hamstring curl movement. It's released my lower back a fair bit!
Immediately felt a release after rolling my hamstrings and was able to stand up a bit more after 2 days hunched over. I had been rolling everything but not really the right way. Thank you so much.
This is incredible. My back went “out” a couple of days ago and I was hunched over and couldn’t stand straight. Three days later and I feel like I’m healing incredibly. The last time this happened my back was out for weeks and none of the PTs, Chiros, or doctors I saw helped at all!!!
Same right now
amazing!
This was a lifesaver. Ive been on the sofa on my back for 2 days in agony with back spasms. This afternoon I seriously considered pissing myself on the sofa as I couldn't get my head round the pain of getting upstairs to the toilet. In the end I managed to get to the kitchen sink in time.
The pain is down the right side of my lower back and rolling on the right thigh started to free it off pretty quickly.
I think I can possibly stand up long enough to cook something now. Ive not been able to eat anything other than bits of fruit for 2 days.
Thank you.😂
When im fully mended ill do whatever is necessary exercise and stretching wise to ensure I dont get to go through this again.
Thank you so much ... can't thank you enough i literally couldn't stand straight few moments ago
Thank you so much I've been trying to figure this out all day thanks for explaining as well
My entire body shakes trying to do that second exercise
Thank you! The roller and exercise helped a lot. Do you recommend heat or Cold pads for the back?
Maybe for a bit of extra short term relief...be sure to have lumbar support if you sit down with them.
Long-term you need to identify why this issue is going on and address that.
You're a genius I'm definitely going to give this one a try
I feel like my glutes are flexed so hard and my hip flexors are pulled so tight, almost as bad as the back pain itself
Could be a sign of poor lateral stability my man...you may have a tendency to be weak on exercises like side-bridges.
@@BrianEllicott thanks for the reply, I’ll work on that 🙏
Brian, I was virtually incapacitated. Have lower back "issues " every few months. Yesterday was the absolute worst. I was in severe pain and couldn't Stand, sit or lie without pain. I did the exercises with my foam roller and found a positive effect almost immediately. I am still pretty stiff and limited range of motivation with a slight hunch over, but has improved with your wonderful video. I think mine is from long duration of sitting at work and a really really bad office chair that puts me in a bad posture etc... anyway, thanks so much for the info and exercises. Wishing you the best with your channel and practice!!! Thanks from Virginia in the USA.
The long-term key is to identify why it is happening in the first place 😎
@@BrianEllicott i understand 👍. I think some is my anterior pelvic tilt and in general have poor flexibility in my Hips and Hamstring. Also need to improve core and oblique strength. Planning to implement all the exercises i found on channel!!! Thanks again. !!
@@markathey1510 Doubt you have actual anterior pelvic tilt my man....anterior pelvic tension because your glutes and core are weak possibly....maybe start with McGill Curl up and Glute-bridges and observe results.
@@BrianEllicott your spot on about glutes and weak hamstrings. Thanks for the suggestion. Will definitely take your advice and start with glute Bridge and McGill curls. The foam rolling and side bridge exercises still are providing relief and increasing mobility although very involved and a little painful to get into postion currently, but I'm managing and is worth the effort. Not sure i am mobile enough to glute bridges yet. Will certainly try and Incorporate as a staple
thanks you so much . I can finally stand
I can not get to the floor cause of bilateral knee surgeries and if I do get to the floor I can not put body weight on my knees and I can not get up without extensive help. Is there any other type of exercise that can do while sitting? I can not stand straight right now due to pain and I walk bent over and must use a cane right now.
i never had back issues but since i moved to my new place came with a bed i cant stay alseep and my back started hurting i started sleeping on the floor and that helped me
Ty broham
What do you think about inversion tables? I am in so much pain that I Googled what to do. Your video came up. I tried to do your exercise and I couldn't. I layed on the floor in a position that allowed me to stretch my spine. It felt good but I still can't stand up straight. The pain is ridiculous. I'd like to give you a bit of history regarding my back but I can't right now. Deep breaths...
Omg this helped me so much! Thank you
i can not straight my back while standing after sitting for long time..i do not feel any pain..should i do these exercise??
Hi Brian, I'm going to try your excercise as every few months for unknown reason my back seems to 'lock' and i find it hard to stand up straight, I do stretch every morning but maybe what I'm missing is the excercises you've mentioned here, any advice would be greatly appreciated, my back was 'locked' 3 days ago but after stretching and taking it easy (supporting my back) I'm almost back to normal. Thanks N
There is a reason...you're exposing yourself to aggravating movement and/or postures which are sensitising the back to pain and flare ups.
Step 1: Identify and remove those aggravators.
Step 2: Build stability.
Remember the technique in the video is a short-term fix!
It's been a week now of barely being able to stand up straight. Today I actually gave up and was feeling pretty bad. Thank goodness I found your video, after rolling my legs out I couldn't stand up straight again! Thank you so much for this relief!!!
One question I have is that when I'm doing the bridge lifts I feel a ton of pressure in my knees. Is this natural? It doesn't feel great but also doesn't feel terrible...
Could be the tightness in the other muscles around the hips and upper legs...see if you can progress with this...as the quads get looser the glute bridges will get easier and the knees should feel better 😎
Shirley her had hip replacement surgery 8 week ago hip has no soreness or pain but when I walk why does my lower back get so week and tired?
Which job is good standing job or sitting job sir..
Which job is good standing job or sitting job sir..
sir I have been having lumbar pain for more than a month now. it started as a pain in the lower back right muscle .. but now it's caused a sort of compression in the lumbar region causing me to b unable to stand. the doctor said it's a muscle spasm but I'm worried it's 5 weeks and it's not yet healed
Same here Shelley.
Shelley, have you had any improvement since then? Would love an answer as I'm in the same situation. Thanks.
@@omarsviral how are you doing now any improvement and if so what did you do to improve?
Can I cry while I try to do this because I can’t move ?
When your going down to the floor your back is completely straight. I can't even do that. I get no pain at 90° and more pain as go upwards to 180°
Brilliant! :=}
My lower back starts tightening when i stand for even 15 mins .my spine MRI and Xray are clear ..plz suggest me where to look?
Got a back pain and couldnt stand or walk for a week and after following this video took 3 days and it was all gone !!
I suggest this erection dysfunction treatment *4NaturalEdCure. Com* if you need action in the bedroom. This got me scoring huge points with my sweetheart. She says I`m now much more lively in the bed room. This informative guide made me feel good. Great product with absolutely fantastic outcomes.
I’m in the same boat. I can’t stand up my legs won’t move. I have several back issues. Spinal stenosis and determined disks and a tumor on my spine. I been to Cleveland Clinic but they haven’t gave me no answers. I recently went to the laser spine institute and they told me they can’t do anything for me because of the tumor. I’m looking for a dr that may be able to help me. I’m in constant excruciating pain. I’m from Ohio. When movie from the wheelchair to the car my leg shakes it takes time to move.
Hi how are you feeling can you walk now with no issues? How is your leg and did you have a surgery? Please reply I'm having leg pain from my back. 👏👏
I mean this video was good but I cannot stand up period.
I can't use my legs at 😭
I have a herniated disc in my lower back, the fourth and fifth vertebrae, for a long time. With the passage of time, the pain went away, but for a month now I have been suffering from a new pain type , which is when I sit for a period of time and I cannot stand up quickly, with pain at the hip and pain behind the back, as if it were kidney pain. Is this related to a herniated disc or is it due to another reason?
Sounds like an injury cascade - you healed the disc with the herniation, and now you are delaminating the next disc in line.

Its sciatica pain and I'm not able to go for washroom too , when ever I come back from washroom Im not able to come to my room , and lay down or sit or stand ..
I dunno man. I can get to all fours but no way I can get into the plank with an elongated body. Too painful. I'll order some rollers anyways. Maybe I will be able to use it in a few days...
My back doesn't hurt I can't stand up straight what's going on
This exercise is too hard for people who are unable to get down on their knees. I have edema. Kneeling makes my legs feel painfully squished and if I can get down, I might not be able to get back up. I need to fix my back because if I stand straight for long my back hurts, but I need an exercise I can do sitting or almost standing.
BEFORE you try anything...be sure to understand WHY your back hurts...that will give you some initial direction...from there you find solutions to working around the knee issue.
I throw out my back very often
Abdominal core muscle exercises always lead to throwing out my back. How can I strengthen my core to prevent this recurrent problem?
Do planks
I went to physio lately and was told sit ups and planks can make problems a lot worse. I was told to loe on my back with my knees bent and feet on the floor and arms up in the air above my chest, pointing to the ceiling. Then make sure your back is planted to the floor. Tilt your pelvis until your spine feels flat against the floor. That way your spine is supported. Now raise your feet until your knees are at 90 degrees. Now stretch one leg out (don't put your foot on the floor) at the same time reach both arms behind your head parallel to the floor. Bring your arms back up and your leg back up to 90 degrees and do the other leg. I find after about 30 on each side my stomach muscles are starting to work. But remember to consciously keep your spine against the floor otherwise you might do some damage. Hope this helps!
Great video as I'm in bed with a heating pad. I've been dealing with this sense 2010. Man I just can't tell ya the pain. I'm now walking with a cane
Lol. im on my heating pad too... I'm on my journey to being pain free. Looking for tips to add to my morning regime. I mostly stretch after heating pad treatment 😊
I tried doing that lunge and i instantly crumbled and now i cant sit up again. Im stuck laying on the floor in crippling pain
Will need to use something to help you get down to the floor to help you avoid that next time my man, could be the roller itself/side of the couch/chair/etc. Plus also look to setup a slight brace with the core.
@@BrianEllicott i just blew out my back today and can barely move. Never happened to me before so i guess i must have made some funny movement that caused it.
How can you even attempt thisif you can walk
?
@@BrianEllicott sorry that should have said cant walk? I cant stand up properly right now. My back went again yesterday lifting a bag of soil and strong painkillers dont do much at all.
I can barely turn either side without serious pain.
I have a slipped disk low down in my back and other than finding this out, my visit to A&E when it was confirmed only left me with a bit more knowledge and pain killers..the disc may be completely shattered now the way i feel or its pinching a nerve severely.
@@paulos1878 Try it and see....it may help, if it does it usually has a profound affect.
The key is working out why you have disc issues....and bear in mind that sharp pain will be muscular in nature.
@@BrianEllicott the hospital tell me the pain is coming from the nerve being pinched by a slipped disc.
@@paulos1878 If its a sharp pain then no, if its tingly pain that may or may not run down your leg - thats a pinched nerve from a disc, if its a toothachey pain - thats an end plate fracture.
Starts at 6:09
I stood meet and greet for 5 hours next day back gave out on me 😣
When your going down to the floor your back is completely straight. I can't even do that. I get no pain at 90° and more pain as go upwards to 180°
