The book 'The Amazing Way to Stand Up that Eliminates Back Pain' will be released on April 28, proposing easy 'standing up' exercises for those suffering from issues in the back, neck, shoulders, hips, and knees.
Author Toyohiro Oyamada, a physical therapist who has cared for the bodies of 50,000 people, states that the cause of many physical ailments lies in the habits of how we stand up. Humans repeat the action of standing up approximately 50 to 70 times a day. Oyamada warns that this very movement is a 'dangerous moment' where a heavy burden is placed on the lower back.
While standing normally puts 100% pressure on the lumbar spine, sitting increases it to 130-140%. When you begin to lean forward from a chair, it rises to around 180%, and at the moment you lift your upper body from a forward-leaning posture, it can exceed 200%. Therefore, experiencing a sharp pain when trying to stand up is not a mere accident but a structurally likely phenomenon.
Furthermore, the moment of standing up determines the posture and the stress placed on the knees, neck, shoulders, and pelvis. This instant sets the positional relationship of all 206 bones in the body and defines the axis of the joints and the path of the center of gravity.
To prevent pain, Oyamada points out two types of 'misalignment':
1. Misalignment of the center of gravity: Many people lift their weight using only their lower back without shifting weight correctly to their feet.
2. Misalignment of movement patterns: Habits of standing up by arching the back without using the hips and knee joints sufficiently.
These misalignments are often caused by a lack of flexibility in the spine, hip joints, and hamstrings. The book provides a 5-step photo lecture on how to avoid these burdens. It focuses on simple exercises, self-checks, and tips for daily movements like sitting or getting out of a car.
Message from the author: 'You don't need to go to the gym. The opportunity to regain health is already in your daily routine.'
