HOW NOT TO DO ASANAS. As yoga teacher I will repeat what was already said here. Sorry guys, but you are giving here very clear instructions on how not to do those poses. No wonder you find them harmful. Anyone here: If your yoga teacher is allowing you to make asanas this way change your yoga teacher straight away! Yoga can and should be helpful therapeutic and healing (also for spine and general back problems) but it comes for understanding and knowledge about our bodies and us as a whole, including breath and working with your mind and emotions. It can be so much more than yoga stretches and performance. PLEASE consult experienced yoga teacher or at least trusted and recommended internet resources ( yogainternational.com or yogauonline.com or at least yogajournal.com).
Two words….Functional Movement.
There are ways to move the body for most so that these poses can be beneficial for most. Let’s talk!
Hello doctor, I had gone for a squint surgery about 3 months ago and now recently I have started getting dizzy a bit. Could it be due to the surgery?
Thanks.
What exercises should be avoided for the ones who have poaterior bulging discs ( the direction of bulging is backwards?
I appreciate the video guys! I have a bad back so I tried to ease into exercise with tai chi and yoga classes. The dude teaching the tai chi classes gave pretty much one on one teaching to me because there were only a couple others there. Well I hurt my hip and couldn’t believe it was possible but I had to cancel yoga class because of it. I still haven’t fully recovered and I am now weary of classes. Knowing what yoga exercises may be problematic for me is helpful. All the yoga experts out there are prepared but anyone who is a newbie can use this information for sure.
starts at 3:29. They actually blah blahed for 3 minutes and 29 seconds.
i sprintd in to a pule hed first wen i was sevn, im prettie shure im phine know.
All of these exercises made my bulging disc heal. I do the hamstirng stretch every morning, they have helped me a lot. Sit ups are also another must for me. And I do yoga which envolves more of these stretches. I highly disagree with your video
thank you
would never tell you to shove it unless you want to come and shovel snowdont think our bodies are meant to bend anything as we get older -mk wisI was doing burpees and a pain shot through my right leg and i couldn’t even move. Every movement i make with my right leg hurts. I’m so scared i don’t know if the pain is permanent or will go away on its own
OMG THABK YOU SOOOOO MUCH
THIS LASTED FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS
BUT WHEN I DID YOU EXPERIENCE
IT VANISHED
I WAS GOING CRAZY I THOUGHT I HAD A PROBLEM
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi guys, please provide a link to the stretches that Brad does. Thanks
It is well documented now within clinical pilates that flexion exercise are just as beneficial as extension depending on the individual. In this case it appears the taller physio here has an ‘extension bias’ ie his back loves extension which has resulted in a confirmation bias for treating this way… that is, because his back likes extension so should others. ‘McKenzie’ therapy was hugely popular in the 80s and 90’ that had a large bias towards back extension exercise and so that’s how many physio’s from this era are influenced to treat. In my experience with as a physio, it is almost 50/50 with backs that like flexion over extension. More recent understanding with how fascia behaves also supports stretching in multiple directions. Over stretching and over pressure is different and like everything flexion exercise to treat back pain needs to be closely monitored pre and post exercise prescription. As for the ‘boat row’ and many yoga abdominal exercises I 100% agree with the guys and hear about it given in yoga classes constantly even in entry level classes. For most this only loads the back muscles and compresses the spine. It is actually an advanced pilates exercise similar to what they call ‘the teaser’. The message here is Yoga is an unregulated industry with most teachers having only 200hr teachers training course and a few retreat workshops under their belt. Poses are passed down through tradition and given generally because that’s what and how the person was taught rather than based on research. In many cases certain poses are definitely not suitable to treat or manage many back conditions and can be harmful. This is when yoga teachers need to know when to refer on and listen to the practitioner rather than trying to mange the injuries themselves based on past experiences. From my understanding the original intentions of yoga were about seeking enlightenment and not for physical therapy and physical indulgence or the physical competition it’s now become (even if that’s self competition). Not hating on it as I love yoga no doubt and overall the benefits far outweigh the risks but if you have chronic back pain the clinical pilates or functional stability model under the guidance of an experienced physio would be much more suitable. ����
I m having Pinched nerves c5&c6,went to a chiropractor after 1 week happened (17th of may I was in terrible pain,I cried)..I’m still under a treatment from my chiropractor,twice a week for 1 month,and once a week for 2 months,I’m getting better but the symptoms still appear sometimes,but he said I can do cycling.
And that’s true about hamstring standing stretch position I always get pain every time I do that,kind of tingling from arm down to my thumb.
My chiropractor said..my disc degenerated at least started since 4 years ago!i didn’t realize it till one day I m totally ‘broken’, I work lifting goods and heavy stuffs since 8years ago plus….I do pole dancing,watched too much my phone with bad posture.
anyone of you had any experiences about pinched nerve?
Oh my good I was doing the bending forward and now I know why my pain got more worse
You need to start from basic. Some of these poses are advance level. You need proper guidance. Don’t don’t don’t even walking is strain on you knee so what? Don’t don’t don’t?? Lol! You’re body is smarter than what you think! Do things proper you body will adapt! Don’t don’t don’t sit on couch and die of heart attack? Lol! Can’t imagine you took so much effort to make a don’t don’t don’t video! Lol!! ��������
I really appreciated this information. Unfortunately I’ve had many yoga teachers over the years who were not sufficiently informed and did not adequately supervise the students in their classes. When I was young and lithe, I could get away with putting strain on my spine, but I’m getting old now and while I still do yoga, I appreciate a heads up from Silver Sneakers or Bob and Brad about what to watch out for and avoid. Thanks!
Hi Maryke, thanks for this. I’m really enjoying your videos. It’s so nice to hear a South African voice:) I’m teaching yoga to seniors and really worry about osteoporosis. I read somewhere that crunches should be avoided. Do I need to worry about other core work? I try to keep it gentle, but would be good to know for sure what I should be staying clear of? Thanks
So basically just lie down on bed doing fuck all? I think I’d rather blow my face off with a 12 gauge when I turn 27 next year.

Thank you guys so much for making this!!! I had been wanting a yoga video forever! World love if you would do many more yoga vids-a yoga series. Because I desperately want to do yoga, but I don’t want to risk another herniated disc. I’m sure there are a lot of other people out there like me.
is it ok to do push ups and gore & abs strengthening in plank stance? when i do these i do not feel any kind of pain in my herniated disc.
Thank you! This staring exercises helped me immediately! Though I don’t think I have BPPV!! Feels like its coming from my frontal lobe!
Avoid sitting, lying, standing, bending, lifting, breathing, moving, speaking, thinking…. you should be fine with my 3 secrets for only £75! Lol seriously??
This helped immensely, I was really suffering with strain on my wrist whilst doing Yoga. I didn’t want to give up Yoga! Thank you:)
This guy obviously never had herniated disc because if he had he would know all of them totally impossible without searing pain I have one and just doing everyday tasks painful with saictca as well nightmare months till surgery when it happened it was the most intense pain ever couldn’t walk 3 days now 3 months on still very painful can’t do anything remotely hard without pain wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy
Hi doc, i’m lamria from indonesia
How if when i do this treatment but im feeling so so dizzy, i’m try one time only one side with open eyes but everything move and make me so dizzy, is it ok to continue even still feeling so dizzy after 30 second? Or i must wait until not feeling dizzy then wake up and changes to other side?
Stop spreading misinformation and stop scaring people!
There is enough pain and confusion as it is, even without you terrifying people out of their minds!
“Leon found that most of the back pain advice found on the internet is generic and super hard to understand for the regular person”… The advice on this video certainly not a good example and doesn’t make things any better…
Oh, the irony!
Movement is the cause and solution to all back problems.
Incorrect movement = Pain, dysfunction, herniated discs, and sciatica.
Correct and efficient movement = little pain and excellent quality of life.
Addressing the movement problems that led the disc to herniate in the first place is the only way to get lasting relief.
This is the mission of Movement Project PT Avoid unnecessary surgeries at all costs.
Yoga killed my back. This is a great video and thank you for the video and information.
1. Remove all tightness from your muscles. 2. Start to CAREFULLY work those weak muscles groups to make them stronger. I healed my herniated disc with a long rest first, I stop sitting too much and then I start to open all my tight muscles, starting first from my front thighs with a foam roller, then a lot of stretching very carefully, too much stretching makes the disc bulb more. My back took 4 years to heal. Doctors won’t help you, they just lie and wants your money. About physiotherapist and osteopathic etc.. Yes, they will help you a little, but may not tell you what causes it and what to do with it, or they give wrong exercise programs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAeAmfD1v78

Check out this video for Iyengar Yoga. These teachers are trained for years and years to ensure safety and correct alignment for back and the spine. The science of Yoga is more than 1000 years old and the scientific aspect of the poses is demonstrated by Iyengar yoga teachers. There have been medical miracles where medical doctors could not cure something but careful yoga poses helped individuals recover.

Sir I have small disc bulge problem…. Bt now I ill doing skipping exercise…. I ill continue or d’t continue skipping exercise sir….
Nothing releases my tight lower back better than a forward fold ��♀️
This video makes me sad and a little upset, you guys (who I enjoy and respect) are only adding to the ignorance around the practice. Yes there are cautions to several, many postures, especially w/ spondylolisthesis please find an
E-RYT and learn how to use props so that your asanas can be formed properly. Challenge do another vid with an actual yoga practitioner.
Nice information. I have just started pain due to herniated disc at very low back. So I will avoid doing these. Tell few exercises which I can do. And can I also start exercises which are dont’s for me after my pain gets all reduced? As I want to reduce my belly fat.
I really like your channel, but you would benefit greatly by having a qualified yoga instructor on.. you are both clueless on proper posture when it comes to yoga instruction…not fair information.. fail!
I usually smash people’s heads against the concrete sidewalk to purposely give them a brain injury. They deserve it for looking at me.
Mam plank exercise can be a cause of vertigo??? If not done in suitable way??
My doctor suggested me single leg raise and hold for 10 seconds both one by one I am at home from 3 months my pain is still increasing what should I do?
I have a herniated disc so I have severe spinal stenosis and I’m trying to lose weight and it’s hard because when I do exercise my back gets messed up and hurts. It really sucks!!
Would you recommend I do the procedure tilting the head back 20 degrees and to the side 45 degrees in the morning or is it ok to do it in the evening too?
Hello doctor jo, I am having dizziness from last two days now I am gonna try this exercise I am not sure if I am having vertigo but my symptoms are like that only ie spinning of room and world around me that happens when I sleep I think it could be due to my pillow so I am gonna change it please suggest me something else to get rid of it I can’t sleep becoz of this? I have subscribed your channel. Sorry for any grammatical error.
I am notsure what problem is going on with by back but recently I am hacking weird pain since I started skipping (before that I used to do some home exercises only). The pain areaa point which is just opposite of chest area not above is yet..
Having a playlist of only pantera, slayer, and slipknot i think its worth the brian damage ��
Keep on posting guys, you’re monetized on youtube, right? 10k hits!
The brain is the most important organ in the body…
According to the brain.
Can you please help me out….
with this exercise it help me but it come again with the interval of 1 to 1.5 month, within 4 month this is third time I am facing BPPV.
The ladybug description really helped me understand what to aim for!
Hi guys. It’s Kaitte Rocky Ford CO. I have a free 21 day Yoga challenge from Wonderlust. I’m 66, been sick awhile and wondered what you think of it for safety to get lumber again.
I’ve been told this same advice from doctors and PTs. It wasn’t until I went to Iyengar yoga class where i learned to do forward folds correctly and now my favorite back exercises to keep me pain free. If you are going to do “yoga poses that are good for your back” PLEASE have a yoga instructor explain the details so people don’t try them and get hurt. Updog or cobra can really put a lot of pressure on your spine if you don’t enter them correctly.
I have a spinal fusion in my lower back, I’m not allowed (like never) to twist or bend, nor to any type of sit ups..so yoga is out of the question for me..
Hi doctor! I have vertigo and my doctor sent me to therapy. Well, I had my first session on Tuesday afternoon And when I got out of there I wasn’t able to walk, got home and felt super dizzy and today was actually worse. I feel a lot of pressure in both my ears, nausea, vomiting, and I cancelled my therapy for today, I have two more sessions for next week. Do you think I should keep those appointments or cancel them as well, is it normal to feel dizzy after the therapy? Before my first session my dizziness lasted for 10 seconds and now I am dizzy most of the day with double vision ( That didn’t have before ).
Thank you.
Please get a yoga instructor to show these poses of what you’re NOT recommending. It’s not clear with your demonstrations. I realize this would be awkward.
Im suffering from lumber muscle stiffness due to 1 month straight sitting on chair gaming. does this exercise helps me?
The extended balled-fist rotations are the most effective for me, and super casual. Thanks!
When finishing exercise I just want to lie down and rest for it seems to help with queasiness or should I try to ignore.
I just started getting dizziness with a stiff neck it’s hard to sleep.
First, you were not doing the forward fold or the other poses correctly. The back is flat (not folded) and the bend is at the hip. The boat is for back muscles, not tummy muscles. You only lift as high as your muscles can support you. You do need a yoga expert for proper form. Second, if you are going to claim science as a support, then cite your sources. PhD here. You didn’t support your claims very well to a real scientist. You don’t have credibility on this topic, both on the basis of knowledge of yoga and knowledge of science. Come on, guys. This lack of citation of sources is a consistent problem with you. Just use your clinical experience. Stay away from areas in which you have no expertise.
If these exercises causes dizziness again during practicing then what should I do?

Your video is amazing! Most times when we, health professionals, try to warn people about the risks, the yoga community reacts in a very nasty way. There’s a massive tendency of selling the idea that yoga never hurts, that it’s completely harmless which is not true. My goal with that kind of warning is not diminishing the activity but tell people to be aware that injuries can happen if you don’t have a good instructor or even if you’re not really focused on what you’re doing.
If you go to a yoga class that demonstrates the yoga poses they way Bob and Brad are doing them in this video, you need to find you a new yoga instructor! Their versions of the poses they are showing in the video are NOT correct at all. Forward folding should be initiated from the forward (anterior) tilt of the pelvis with a lengthened neutral spine. Only after the pelvis is able to tilt forward and the transverse abdominals are actively engaged should you be encouraged to round only through the thoracic. If the pelvis remains in a posterior tilt, then props should used for modification (ie bolster under hips in seated forward poses and blocks on the ground bringing the floor closer to you in poses like Triangle). Bob and Brad, please educate yourself before posting videos like this as it can discourage people from seeking out a practice that has so many therapeutic benefits to the low back when instructed properly and with the right modifications.
Guys, just NO! The bend is to come from the hips NOT the back You are doing it all completely wrong. You’ve just demonstrated everything not to do while doing yoga.
Should I do these in addition to, or instead of the Epley maneuver?
This is completely unsubstantiated outdated opinion. If you want up-to-date info on the back and movement, check out Peter O’Sullivan and his crew. The myths you heard in this video only perpetuate fear of movement.
Bob and Brad what about downward dog? Is that good or bad for the back?
Is a herneated disc different from a slip disc? I was diagnosed with a slip disc and was recommended a few exercises by my doctor, one of which is the single leg raise.
Mmmmm toe touch stretch actually is one of the ways that produce a relief for me when I have pain
There’s no such thing as good and bad stretches. It’s all about LOAD. Are you guys even up to date with the latest studies? It’s because it’s evidence based doesn’t mean it’s bad or good for every single single human being. Human body is robust.
hello, Dr. Jo. the first exercise you describe at 0:55; is this an exercise to prevent the little parts from loosening in your inner ear and moving into the wrong canal (the cause for the vertigo), or is this to reprogram your brain in order to mitigate day-to-day dizziness? as far as I understand there’s nothing I can do to prevent the loosening of these otoliths.
How about Twister? I tried yoga and some of those were the first ones taught. I decided it wasn’t for me.
Hi, quick question, will this also work for the people who struggled with PPPD?
I going to work condition �� and I make this exercises anda I talked about my condition and lady �� said is good �� for your lower back I have sciatic and herniation L4 5 with stenosis foraminal
Bob and Brad, you should re-do this video with a qualified yoga teacher who can rebut your claims. Yoga is more than just about positions. It’s about breathing and easing into a pose. There’s no doubt one can injure oneself when doing a pose incorrectly. That can be said about any exercise, whether it’s yoga or not. So, please bring an expert next time to have them talk to you about the do’s and don’ts of yoga.
I understand your concerns about certain poses; however, when doing these poses, props such as blocks and blankets are used to assist keep the body safe while practicing them. In addition, the students are given cues and modifications for each pose during the practice which illeviates many of the potential back issues that you are speaking of.
My dizzy is gone know but it will come back i drink 2 fluid drinks so i dont know that much works but my dizzy comes back i try ever video ima sit down for a while if it helps
hey doc I’m wearing eyeglasses should i take it off before this exercise or keep it on
For the gaze stabilization, how often do you recommend doing those? Per day? I really hope this helps me over time, been dealing with getting lightheaded while turning or looking around.
I tripped and hit my head on concrete and no wonder why am so dumb
Please tell me sir which exercise i have to do. Please make for that because my back is very paining.
very informative videos but please slow your speech for better understanding by foreigners
Yoga never really interest me. And now that I am older…I need to stick to safe ways to work out. I only have one body.
Thank maam for very usefull vedio for me because i was a vartigo pasent but now i am fine by your advise on net!
how can we exercise our abs? maybe standing up abs? could you upload a video on that, please?
Hello sir
I operate L4 and L5 disc last year in 2017.
From few days i have problem in right leg,i think its may bhi sciatica,could you suggest me exercise for both problem?
I disagree with almost all of these. I am 23, I have 2 herniated discs and I do all of these exercises except bending forward. I was in terrible pain for 4 months and couldn’t even walk. I thought my active sport life was over but decided I can’t live like that. 3 months ago I started doing crunches and I strenghtened my abdominal muscles so I don’t have any pain whatsoever. Stay strong and don’t let a herniated disc ruin your life!
This is why you shouldn’t attend the Headbangers Ball.
“Bang your head….. metal health will drive you mad”
What you’re doing there’s not really yoga. Just bad stretching. Also you only respond to the small number of comments agreeing with you. Misinformative and closed minded.
One time i got hit by a soccer ball to hard that i fell My head in the ground and it hurts so much
Was diagnosed with bbpv a couple years ago and never offered any help or resolution. I get these episodes where I’m dizzy for a couple days every month or so, but only upon standing and bending over. Are headaches common with bppv as well?
I got a herniated disc. I can’t barbell squat or deadlift but I have no problem doing dumbbell squats and hyperextentions.
Just keep in mind to avoid exercises which bring your torso forward. Dumbbell squats allow you to stay upright to a certain degree. Alternatively you can do front squats but I wouldn’t recommend it.
thank you so much. i’ve had tendonitis on my wrist so yoga was really hard on my wrist. I learned that I was doing it all wrong!
My problem���� ��
1)Cervical vertebrae ;
*Diffuse disk bulge at C3 C4 and C4 C5 level spinal canal narrowing and thecal sac indentation.[Disk desiccation seen]
2) Lumbor spine ;
Mild loss of lumbor lordosis.
Mild diffuse disk bulge at L2 L3, L3 L4 & L4 L5 level.
That mat is a Pilates mat…yoga needs a thinner mat with more stickiness….I am a yoga teacher ����♀️����
If one was as non bendy and imbalanced as the demonstration here, of course these positions can hurt you… but so can many other every day physical activities if not properly mechanized to ability.
I got hit on my head by a hockey ball 8 months ago. It hit just above my right eyebrow. I still have a lump now and when it is touched it is really painful. I get light headed almost every day. The doctor told me I have to wait until it’s been a year to do anything
I worked with a yoga therapist because I have arthritis and she really emphasized the importance of listening to your body. In classes, we often compete, even unconsciously, and try to do things beyond our skill and physical ability to look like the pretty lady in the front of the room. She taught me to hear my body when I’ve gone deep enough and gave me the courage to do what I can do, regardless of what the rest of the class is doing. She also said that if the instructor does not respect your limitations, leave. That is a bad instructor that will hurt you. I think a number of yoga instructors need to remember to encourage their students to listen to their bodies and give students permission to back up and do their own practice when necessary. Yoga can be a profoundly healing practice, but it is up to the instructor to help students find and appreciate their own practice. I know a number of people who give up on yoga because they were hurt or severely discouraged in a “beginning” class. Not all of us are built for Ashtanga, just like not all of us are marathon runners. That doesn’t mean you can’t do yoga (or run), just that particular style is not for you. So, be careful, listen to your body, and try a couple of different styles and different teachers. You are not getting a grade!:) So take care of yourself!
Thank you so much! You cured me instantly! I’m so grateful vertigo is terrifying.
I m suffrimg from dizziness mostly at night while lying on bed plz help me i m scared alot not understanding anything��
If you guys could do a video on hamstring stretches that don’t affect the back, that would be good.
First, I love you guys! i have been in Nursing 27 years and Massage for 2, I recommend you all the time. But, here is my take on Yoga, your right IF you do not know what your doing. A good Yoga instructor would not take you into any of those poses with incorrect form (Brad, your form suxs lol). IF you are a competitive person which I am you can definitely overstretch and initiate the Golgi tendon reflex and hurt yourself, but that is even true for the exercises PT prescribes IF done incorrectly. I am new to yoga and barley bend into triangle, not because I could not touch the ground, but because there are a lot of back muscles that need stretched out that are tight, like the QL muscle for one Brad refers to. In my opinion, what you guys should be tellling people is they can be dangerious if done incorrectly and that you should start in the type of Yoga that teaches restorative with a reputable instructor in a small class who will not allow you to use bad form. I would challange you to take some Yoga for at least 6 months so you can at least give an opinion, especially with your credentials in PT in an objective manner, not just based on disc studies on cadavers or people who already damanged their discs, probablyt from bad form and major muscle imbalances.

I need answers. Whenever I get mad I beat-up my head numerous times, beat it hard until it gets numb, and I can’t control my own hands an it became a habit. So… Can this damage my brain?
