Dr. Davis reacts to Squat University & Stuart McGill's typical low back pain fear-mongering around core stability. If you've ever been told to never bend your spine, fix your posture, or just do the McGill Big Three... this one's for you. We're going through the advice piece by piece — what actually holds up, what's overblown, and why so much mainstream back pain content leaves people more scared and more stuck than when they started. We cover: Whether spinal flexion is actually dangerous (especially with a disc herniation) Why your hamstring stretches might be irritating your sciatic nerve without you realizing it The problem with over-bracing your core — and why it can make chronic pain worse What the research says about posture, MRI findings, and who actually develops long-term pain What a more complete back pain rehab program looks like beyond three exercises No scare tactics. Just an honest look at the evidence and what it means for your recovery. 📺 Want to see the research on spinal flexion and disc herniations?
