Back Pain While Running?
How do I get rid of the back pain I get while running during sports..
I am having back pain while running during soccer practise. After about ten minutes of running my back hurts so much and stiffens. I have tried to perfect my form and even seen a doctor( he says nothings wrong). Please help, without soccer, there is no reason to live.

This a common problem for many runners and very often with no solution except for the unlikable one – to get off of running to get healed.
But your solution is inside running itself: you have to run proper. What exactly does it mean?
First and foremost: do not work against gravity.
* Do not pound the ground with your heels
* Do not push the ground off with your legs
The next important point is the body position in relation to support.
If your body is not aligned along the straight line going through the shoulders, hips, and forefoot on support, but is bent forward instead, then you are likely to have a torque (a rotating or twisting force) at the lower back level when landing on the heel or forefoot in front of the body.
This rotational force, when the position is repeated non-stop during a long run, eventually overstretches and overloads these lower back muscles. They become tense and painful.
How to avoid this problem?
* At least keep your trunk and hips aligned over the point of support
* Do not land on the heels
* Do not land in front of the body, but do that under the hips or general center of mass
* Strengthen your hip muscle system around 360 degrees by doing hip exercise
* Develop higher level of elasticity of your muscles by using jump exercises
Bring it all together in running. As you see, nothing fancy, but all geared to developing good relationship with gravity.

hmm u cud always cut it off like they did back then
maybe try core strengthening excersises and yoga for posture. Worth a try. I am a runner and have been having back problems too (had back surgery in sept.) take care of your back because I feel the same way about running. I get depressed when I can’t run and it’s been a tough winter. Feel like I’m just starting to get back to normal.
Good Luck!
Oh yeah, maybe some good inserts for your shoes would be worth a try too.
What can i do about lower back pain?
I have had lower back pain on the left side of my back for about 2 weeks. The pain first started while i was running.
How’s your diet? I had lower back pain and learned that it was from eating too much sugar and junk food. I learned from this free book.
