The article from MSN discusses four exercises recommended by physical therapist Dr. Jacob Van Den Meerendonk to enhance deep core strength and alleviate back pain. These exercises include the Bird Dog, where one extends opposite arm and leg while maintaining a neutral spine; Dead Bug, involving lying on your back and moving opposite arm and leg while keeping the lower back pressed to the floor; Side Plank, which targets the obliques and helps stabilize the spine; and Glute Bridge, which focuses on the glutes and hamstrings to support the lower back. Each exercise is designed to engage the core muscles effectively, promoting stability and reducing back pain by strengthening the muscles that support the spine. Dr. Van Den Meerendonk emphasizes the importance of proper form to maximize benefits and prevent injury.
