How to reduce spinal pressure after weight training?

Many netizens said that their backs will be sore or tight after weight training or weight lifting training. To eliminate bad posture or compensation, it is common to say that the body compresses the spine when it is pressing weight. Therefore, after weight training (barbell squat), you can perform some actions to reduce spinal pressure.

Introduce two actions to reduce spinal pressure!

Holding horizontal bars and Inverted hammock.

First of all, regarding the movements of reducing the spine, some people call it "Tractation" and some people simply call it "Decompression", with the purpose of reducing the pressure of the intervertebral disc and stretching the muscles of the spine.

When we move around, the "disks" between the spines stretch and contract like sponges to absorb fresh blood and nutrients. But after we sit for a while, The "disk" is squeezed unevenly. The collagen around the tendons and ligaments becomes hard.

Reducing and relieving spinal pressure is one of the factors that maintain the health of the intervertebral disc. The common methods are hanging on the pull-up bar (and breaking up the hand and feet hanging), while the other is an inverted hammock.

The pull-up part, by holding the pole with your hands, can be carried out using a wide grip, narrow grip, palm forward, opposite or facing yourself. There are also feet hanging on the bar. Foreign websites sell shoe covers "Gravity" Boots" is convenient for you to hang. Another type, I believe someone has seen an upside-down hammock

But whether it is a pull-up or an upside-down hammock, be sure to pay attention. It is recommended that experienced people come to help and supervise first, and perform it in a gradual way (duration, upside-down angle) to see if there is any discomfort, dizziness or other conditions to prevent any unexpected situations.
