All things in moderation is great advice.   Whether that is food, fitness, spending habits, or even receiving advice, I’ve found that extremes tend to have negative consequences.  We treat a lot of sports injuries in our office, especially low back pain from lifting, CrossFit, runners, triathletes, and golf.  This can be frustrating because injury can keep you away from performing something you love.  A common theme to many injuries we see has to do with spinal positioning.  “Neutral Spine” is a concept that has been around for quite some time and is often misunderstood; it is not a singular position, but rather a range where we can safely train.  In general, it is the position our spine is naturally designed to be the most biomechanically efficient.
