Low Back Pain: A Strength Coach’s Guide to Building Capacity, Not Fear
Low back pain shows up constantly in the tactical populations I coach, and while it is common, coaches and providers also commonly misunderstand it. Athletes often arrive convinced their back is damaged, unstable, or worn out because of something they saw on an MRI or something a provider told them years ago. Those messages stick, and once they take root, they shape how an athlete moves, trains, and thinks about their own body. The problem is that most of those messages are incomplete at best and misleading at worst. Low back pain is not a diagnosis. It is a symptom, and symptoms tell us where discomfort is happening, not why it exists. My job is not to diagnose injuries. My job is to rebuild capacity and to get the athlete from A to Z on the performance continuum.
