While the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has halted the cadence of everyday life for just about everyone, the world is now beginning to adjust. We're all handling the challenges of social distancing and self-isolation differentlybut that doesn't mean that we have to go it completely alone in every sense.

Take Some Time for a Lower Back Mobility Session

At Men's Health, we're using this period as an opportunity to build up our community and share as much useful, positive information as possible. For everyone stuck missing their typical workout routines with gyms and fitness centers closed down, we've done our best to provide as many at-home workout options as possible . But that's just the start. We're also hosting live workout sessions on Instagram with some of our favorite trainers to fill the fitness class-shaped void in your daily routine.

Dan Giordano, D.P.T. C.S.C.S. , a Men's Health Advisory Board member and practicing physical therapist, hosted the latest session from his New York City apartment. He designed this mobility routine to focus on the lower back.

"Everyone's been sitting so much, I've been sitting so much, I'm starting to feel some tightness in my lower back," he said.

All you need for the session is a mat for your back, if you'd like. Giordano also suggests taking your socks off and working in your bare feet.

Hopefully, you were able to catch the session live and joined in the fun. For everyone else, here's the workout so you can follow along at home.
