Why are lower-back exercises often neglected in a typical program?

Lower-back exercises are often neglected in typical workout programs due to a focus on more visible muscle groups, such as the chest, arms, and abs, which are prioritized for aesthetics. Additionally, many individuals may not be aware of the importance of core stability and lower-back strength for overall functional fitness and injury prevention. Some people also perceive lower-back exercises as less engaging or more challenging, leading to a lack of emphasis in their routines. Finally, there can be a misconception that lower-Back pain is solely due to weakness, rather than a combination of strength, flexibility, and posture issues.
