The 14 Best Back Exercises, According to Trainers

Don't underestimate the power of the crab walk. According to the ASFA, this exercise is great for your core, lower back, hips, and pelvis. As an added bonus, it can also improve posture and help reduce back pain.

• Sit on the ground with your knees bent, your hands two inches behind you, and your fingers pointing towards your body. If this is too much weight on your wrists, slightly turn your fingers out to the sides of your body. Lift your hips off the ground.
• Step your right foot forward as you simultaneously move your left hand forward. Then repeat on the opposite side. Focus on perfecting the contralateral movement (moving opposite body parts at the same time).
