If your sciatica, leg pain, tingling, or lower back pain gets worse when you sit, especially in a car, at a desk, or on a soft couch, your sitting position may be contributing to the problem.
When the pelvis rolls backward during sitting, the lower back often rounds into flexion.
For people with certain disc-related back pain or sciatica symptoms, this position may aggravate symptoms over time. But sitting itself is not automatically the problem—how long you sit, how you sit, and how you move throughout the day all matter.
In this episode, I explains why sitting can make sciatica worse and walks you through 3 simple steps that may help reduce aggravating positions, restore hip and lower-back movement, and support a more resilient back.
🔷 Why sitting can aggravate sciatica, lower back pain, and leg symptoms
🔷 How a tucked pelvis and rounded lower back can affect your sitting mechanics
🔷 Why sitting duration, posture, exercise, and daily movement all matter
🔷 Step #1: How lumbar support, a rolled towel, or a water bottle can support a more comfortable sitting position
🔷 Step #2: Prone Hip Extension to work on active hip extension, glute strength, and lower-back movement
🔷 Step #3: Prone Press-Ups (cobra-style lumbar extensions) for comfortable lower-back extension
🔷 How to use movement breaks instead of holding one position for too long
🔷 Why some people need an individualized assessment rather than a one-size-fits-all exercise plan
