Ep.133 – You Are Hurting Your Back – Foremen & Workers

Your body is your #1 tool, and if you don't take care of it, the job will eventually take it from you. In this episode, Jason is joined by Dr. Steve Grennan and Amanda Hill from Biohealth Management to talk specifically about lower-back pain, why sitting can wreck your spine, and how tight hamstrings and dehydration show up as real symptoms on the job. They give practical, jobsite-ready guidance for mobility, hydration, and prevention so you can work hard without paying for it later. Plus, they share how to get a simple stretch sheet and a giveaway for boot insoles for the first listeners who take action.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Why sitting (car rides, slouching, and "resting" at home) can make lower-back issues worse
• How tight hamstrings pull your pelvis, flatten your low-back curve, and create symptoms
• The difference between nerve-related pain vs. muscular strain and how to recognize early warning signs
• Why hydration matters for joints, muscle function, and recovery—and how dehydration shows up fast
• How to get a simple low-back stretch program and request a free insole kit (first 75 who email JasonS@ElevateConstructionISD.com)
