Learn to Fix Your Own Back: A Conversation with Dr. Stuart McGill
In this podcast episode, I sat down once again with my good friend and mentor, Dr. Stuart McGill. For over an hour, we dig deep into the origins, purpose, and practical application of his book Back Mechanic, a must-have resource for anyone dealing with low back pain.
If you’ve ever battled back issues—or coach people who do—this is a podcast episode you won’t want to miss. Not only do we break down the philosophy and methods behind Back Mechanic, we also highlight one of its most powerful tools: the Video Enhanced Version, which is currently on sale at PowerRackStrength.com for just $44.95 (regularly $69.99).
Here’s why that’s such a big deal—and why the episode is worth your time.
What Is Back Mechanic?
At its core, Back Mechanic is a self-assessment guide that helps you figure out what’s causing your back pain—and more importantly, how to fix it. The book walks you through a series of simple, precise steps to identify whether your pain is disc-related, movement-based, mechanical, or something else entirely.
Dr. McGill provides a roadmap to remove pain triggers, reinforce good movement patterns, and build back a more resilient spine. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all “stretch it out” approach—it’s specific, science-based, and proven effective for thousands of people around the world.
Whether you’re a lifter, a coach, or someone who just wants to be pain-free again, Back Mechanic helps you become your own back pain detective.
The Video Enhanced Version: A High-Value Tool at a Fraction of Its Worth
While Back Mechanic alone is powerful, the Video Enhanced Version is on another level.
This version includes everything in the book, plus video demonstrations of each key step, narrated and demonstrated by Dr. McGill himself. You’ll learn proper technique, how to troubleshoot your own movements, and how to implement the exercises and spine hygiene strategies with confidence and precision.
And here’s what makes this especially important right now: it’s on sale for just $44.95—down from $69.99.
That’s a fraction of what a single physical therapy session or consult might cost. But more importantly, the insight and guidance it provides could save you months of frustration, prevent thousands of dollars in wasted treatments, and most importantly, help you reclaim your quality of life.
As we discuss in the episode, this tool is an incredible value, especially considering you’re being coached step-by-step by the world’s foremost spine expert.
Why Self-Management Matters
One of the key takeaways from our conversation is the power of informed action.
Too often, people stuck in chronic pain become passive, bouncing from provider to provider without getting answers. Back Mechanic changes that. It teaches you how to take control by removing the cause of pain, not just masking symptoms.
And with the video version, you can see what to do, not just read about it. That clarity makes a huge difference in terms of execution, consistency, and long-term success.
As Dr. McGill and I agree, the goal isn’t to do a bunch of random stretches or core work and hope for the best. The goal is to understand the why behind the pain, then follow a customized path forward.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
In our latest podcast, we also dive into:
- The story behind Back Mechanic and how it evolved from clinical research to global impact
- Why so many rehab plans fail—and what makes McGill’s approach different
- Common mistakes people make when trying to fix their own back pain
- Who benefits most from the book and video format?
- Why “more motion” and “more core” isn’t always the answer
This episode is for anyone looking to stop spinning their wheels and finally make progress with their spine health, whether you’re a weekend warrior or a high-level lifter.
