The inter-vertebral disc can buffer the pressure on the spine during movement, absorb shock force, protect the spinal cord, and can also assist the waist to complete flexion and extension, and rotation from side to side. For obese people, because the lumbar spine is wrapped in thick fat, the adaptability will be less. If you suddenly do a lot of exercise, it will put too much pressure on the "burnout" lumbar spine in a short period of time, making the lumbar spine unbearable, and this will happen.

In addition, if you are doing progressive strength training, you can use a training belt during heavy exercises to achieve the purpose of immobilizing the lumbar spine. It is not recommended to use a belt when the weight is small, because exercises with small weights can strengthen the lumbar spine.

The waist support should be used for 3 to 6 weeks, and the longest should not exceed 3 months. If a person's body is not strong enough and lacks exercise, he usually sits all day at work, the muscles of the lower back are weak, and the spine is unstable, which affects the facet joints, fascia and ligaments, and there will be low back pain and changes such as bone hyperplasia.

After wearing, it can limit the movement of the waist, strengthen the stability, and prevent unintentional sprains. Therefore, the symptoms of low back pain are significantly improved.
