Fitness! Why shouldn’t you bend over!

With believe it or not! You can observe that when you go to any gym, wrong bent over is everywhere.

Why is this happening?

I think this may be the reason for the modern lifestyle: long-term sitting posture makes everyone lose the ability to use the hip joint.

Spine neutrality is very important in fitness! Why shouldn’t you bend over? Today, we use an anatomical perspective to analyze it for you.

Hip joint vs. Lumbar joint

First let's take a look at the location of the hip and lumbar joints:

So what will it look like when using the waist and hip joints to "bend" and pick things up?

(In fact, it should not be called "bend")

Bend the hip joint and lumbar joints:

Why is the lumbar joint not suitable for movement?

If we compare the structure of the lumbar joint and the hip joint, even if there is no medicine or anatomy I believe you can easily identify which joint is designed for vigorous activity.

Hip joint:

Luminous joint...

After reading so many pictures, the lumbar spine and hip joint are more suitable for exercise. Readers should have answers in their minds?

Erection spinal muscles (lower back muscles)

Lower back muscles and buttock muscles

According to this study: The lower back muscles of healthy people are mainly made of red muscle fibers, or The main endurance muscles are the main feature of endurance muscles. The characteristic of endurance muscles is that they can work hard for a long time without fatigue, which is especially suitable for maintaining body posture.

But the weakness of the lower back muscles is that they are small in size and have small strength. If they are used to generate movements or bear strength, it may be less suitable. The erection spinal muscles (lower back muscles)

But the gluteus maximus across the hip joints is different. The gluteus maximus is not only the largest muscle in the human body, but the first and second muscle fibers each account for about half.

The volume and characteristics of the gluteus maximus can support long-term and low-intensity , , squats, deadlifts) can also burst out powerful forces in a short period of time (such as running a hundred meters, squats, deadlifts).

Glute maximus

Summary:

Whether from the perspective of joint structure or muscle type, the hip joint is definitely a joint that is more suitable for movement and strength. You should maintain a good posture in daily life and pay attention to learning to use the hip joint

Don’t know how to use the body correctly may cause early wear of the skeletal system. No wonder modern people often start to develop degenerative lesions such as intervertebral disc herniation at the age of 30.
