Abstract(s)

The majority of guidelines accentuates the regular physical activity and exercise as a protective factor in chronic pelvic low back pain. Surprisingly, there is some controversy about the possible protective role of physical activity (PA) in low back pain. Objectives: To compare physical activity between former athletes with and without nonspecific chronic pelvic low back pain. To analyze the relationship between physical activity and functional low back pain disability in former athletes with nonspecific chronic pelvic low back pain.
