This is the official training app for members of Low Back Ability (https://lowbackability.com). Low Back Ability is the world's leading program for rebuilding your back. We offer a full training roadmap with form videos, specific sets and reps, and exercise techniques. === Features === - Curated workout plans - Interactive and engaging workout flows - Instructional videos for each exercise - Enhanced progress tracking === Disclaimer === Low Back Ability is NOT medical treatment or advice. We are an educational training plan that helps you do your own self-directed back workouts. Our fundamental goal is to help you LEARN about your back and understand that: 1.) The spine is meant to be stimulated & trained, NOT just protected & avoided. 2.) The spinal tissue can be rebuilt to improve strength, function & mobility. The reason this can be true for everyone is that LBA is simply a DIRECTIONAL tool, not an absolute framework. EVERYONE has their own level of stimulus to the spine that is productive. We are attempting to help you find YOUR productive level. === Important Links === You can find our terms of service here: https://www.lowbackability.com/terms-of-service You can find our privacy policy here: https://www.lowbackability.com/privacy-policy You can find our FAQs page here: https://www.lowbackability.com/faq You can find our support page here: https://www.lowbackability.com/support
