Abstract
We recommend the following movements for low back pain patients dependent on their stage of impairment. In the early stage of exercise, the pull-down exercise in a sitting position with handgrip width adjustments for exercise of the front muscles. With advance of stage, the handgrip width can be narrowed and the exercise can start in the standing position. For the back muscles, pull-up movement can be performed in a sitting position in the early stage, and pull-up movement in a standing position can be performed in subsequent stage. The handgrip width does not influence the pull-up exercises.
