Low Back & Hip Foundations – Level 1
A simple, structured way to help your low back and hips do their jobs again
If you’ve dealt with back pain, hip pain, stiffness, or flare‑ups that keep coming back, this is probably familiar:
You rest, stretch, or get treated
Things feel better for a short time
Then the pain returns when you sit, lift, train, or move the wrong way
That cycle is frustrating.
It usually isn’t because you’re broken.
It’s because the low back and hips aren’t doing their jobs well enough to keep up with daily life.
This course is designed to change that.
Why the low back and hips matter so much
The low back and hips sit at the center of almost everything you do:
Sitting and standing
Walking and running
Lifting and carrying
Training and exercise
When they move well, control load, and tolerate stress, the rest of the body tends to behave.
When they don’t, problems often show up somewhere else.
That’s why this is where I recommend most people start.
The framework behind this course
Everything in this program is built around one idea:
Joints have jobs to do.
For the low back and hips to stay healthy, they need:
Enough mobility to move where they’re designed to move
Enough stability to control motion and handle load
Healthy tissue quality so movement isn’t constantly irritated
Most approaches focus on only one of these.
This course addresses all three, in a clear and organized way.
Why this is Level 1
This is Level 1 of a three‑level system.
All levels address mobility, stability, and tissue quality.
The difference is emphasis.
Level 1 emphasizes stability.
That’s intentional.
In practice, this is where most people are missing the most.
If your body can’t control movement or tolerate load, it doesn’t matter how flexible you are.
Pain tends to return.
Level 1 focuses on:
Building foundational strength and control
Teaching the low back and hips to tolerate daily stress again
Creating a base that future mobility and tissue work can actually stick to
For most people, this is the smartest place to begin.
What this course helps with
This approach is the same framework I’ve used in practice to help people with:
Low back pain
Hip pain and stiffness
Disc herniations and sciatica
Arthritis and degenerative changes
Stenosis
SI joint pain
Recurrent flare‑ups with sitting, bending, or lifting
A diagnosis does not mean you’re stuck.
It also does not mean you need an instant fix.
This course is about giving your body what it needs so it can handle healing and stress over time.

What this is and what it is not
This course is for you if:
You want a clear plan instead of piecing things together
You’ve tried things that helped temporarily but didn’t last
You want to reduce pain and move better long term
You care about staying active as you age
This course is not for you if:
You’re looking for an overnight fix
You want someone else to do the work for you
You’re dealing with a complex issue that needs individual assessment
If your primary issue is not your low back or hips, or if your situation is more complicated, a clarity call is likely a better next step.
