If you’re over 40 and dealing with back pain, you’re not alone. Long hours at a desk, weekend sports, and years of wear and tear all add up. Many people try quick fixes like stretching or painkillers, but the real solution often lies in building strength and agility.
At Tsquared Personal Training in Vancouver, I help clients reduce back pain by combining targeted strength training with agility work. The goal is not just relief, but long-term resilience so you can move with confidence again.
Why Back Pain Becomes More Common After 40
- Sedentary work: Hours sitting weaken the core and tighten hips.
- Loss of muscle mass: Natural aging reduces muscle support for the spine.
- Decreased mobility: Less movement makes the body stiff and unbalanced.
- Poor posture: Rounded shoulders and weak core muscles put extra strain on the lower back.
The result is a cycle of pain, stiffness, and frustration. But the good news is, with the right training, you can reverse it.
How Strength Training Helps
Strength training isn’t just about building muscle, it’s about creating a strong support system for your spine.
- Core strength: Exercises like planks and rotational movements stabilize the lower back.
- Posterior chain strength: Training glutes, hamstrings, and back muscles helps share the load, reducing pressure on the spine.
- Joint stability: Strong muscles protect against misalignment and injury.

How Agility Training Complements Strength
Agility training might not be the first thing you think of for back pain, but it’s crucial.
- Mobility: Agility drills improve range of motion and loosen stiff muscles.
- Coordination: Teaching your body to move efficiently reduces awkward, injury-prone movements.
- Dynamic stability: Training the body to handle twists, turns, and quick reactions keeps the spine safe in real life situations.

Why Small Group Training Works Best
For busy adults over 40, consistency is the biggest challenge. Small group training provides:
- Accountability: Your group keeps you coming back, even on tough days.
- Affordability: Train multiple times per week without the cost of one-on-one.
- Expert eyes on form: I make sure every rep is safe and effective, which is especially important when dealing with back pain.
