Low Back Pain Coach

Low Back Pain Coach helps you rebuild a strong, resilient lower back using a simple, proven
movement: the back extension (also known as a hyperextension). Instead of guessing,
you follow a clear four-stage progression and let your own pain trend guide how
fast you move.

HOW IT WORKS
You start by setting your typical daily low back pain as a baseline. Then you train
and log how you feel — especially the day after a workout. The app compares
recent pain to your baseline and suggests whether to advance, hold steady, or
ease off. Progress is driven by how your body actually responds, not a rigid
calendar.

THE FOUR-STAGE PROGRESSION
• Isometric holds — hold the top position to build tolerance.
• Partial reps — small range of motion, gradually increasing.
• Full reps — full-range back extensions, bodyweight only.
• Weighted reps — full reps with added weight for progressive overload.

FEATURES
• Today's stage — a suggested stage based on your recent pain vs baseline.
• Guided workouts — log time (isometric), reps and sets, or weight for each session.
• Pain tracker — record daily pain and see it against your baseline over time.
• Progress graphs — watch pain trend down and volume climb across weeks and months.
• Calendar — every workout and pain log at a glance.
• Achievements — milestones that keep you consistent.
• Reminders — prompts to log pain and train.
• Supporter backups — optional Google Drive automatic backup plus spreadsheet import/export.
• Light and dark themes.

WHY IT WORKS
Consistency beats intensity for chronic low back issues. Low Back Pain Coach removes the
guesswork by tying every decision to your own pain signal, so you build strength
at a pace your back can handle — and you can see the progress.

PRIVACY
Your workouts and pain logs are stored on your device by default. Optional
Supporter backups can save a private backup file to your Google Drive app data
storage. See our privacy policy for details.
