Deep dives
No significant difference in lumbopelvic control between powerlifters with and without lower back pain
A recent study aimed to assess lumbopelvic movement control in powerlifters with and without lower back pain. The study involved powerlifters who were screened and categorized based on their lower back pain status. They underwent a series of seven lumbopelvic movement control tests. Surprisingly, there was no significant difference in lumbopelvic control between powerlifters with and without lower back pain. This outcome contradicts previous findings in the general population, where movement control tests were effective in discriminating between individuals with and without lower back pain. It suggests that powerlifters may have specific movement adaptations related to their sport that obscure the differences in lumbopelvic control associated with lower back pain.
