BIRD DOG ROWS FOR A STRONGER, MORE STABLE BACK
The Bird Dog Row is one of my favourite exercises for building upper back strength while teaching your core to keep your spine stable. It’s not about lifting the heaviest weight. It’s about staying in control throughout the movement.
✅ Challenges your core to resist unwanted movement
✅ Reinforces good spinal stability
✅ Builds upper back strength with less unnecessary stress on your back
✅ Great addition to many strength programs
If you’d like to learn more exercises like this and understand why they work, I’m hosting a Lifting With Back Pain Workshop this Saturday, July 25, from 10:00–12:00 PM at Unified Fitness.
We’ll cover practical ways to modify common lifts, reduce unnecessary stress on your back, and keep training with confidence.

IF THESE EXERCISES HURT YOUR BACK, TRY THESE INSTEAD
You don’t have to stop training just because your back is sensitive. You just need better options that keep you strong without forcing your body into positions it doesn’t tolerate well right now.
❌ Deadlift
✅ Suitcase squat
❌ Bent-over row
✅ Bird dog row
❌ Crunches
✅ Side plank with stability ball
❌ Deadlift
✅ Single-leg deadlift
Same goal. Better control. Less irritation.
Train smart first. Build intensity after.
