Lower back pain increased when changing into a standing position from cobra?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be several : Issues. Are you doing regular cardiovascular exercises & other core workouts? Lifestyle ok in terms of weight control & not smoking? If so, then this may be a facet joint problem which is loaded by the extension produced by cobra position in the lower back. You may have to modify your workout in terms of minimizing or eliminating this pose if creating significant issue otherwise it is ok to do.
