Answers from Danny M O'Dell:

Q.I have a sacroiliac joint instability that causes pain in my lower back, glute and into my groin (psoas) region when I train. It is more prevalent when I conduct any training involving impact such as running or kick boxing. It has been a chronic injury initially onset after a kick boxing session conducting throws and falls. I have had numerous physio and osteo session to help alleviate the pain but this is only temporary and returns when I return to training. I am aware that I need to improve my posture and further strengthen my core although I would like to be able to continue training or return to training as soon as possible. Are you able to advise any particular exercise or set or exercises I may be able to perform to help alleviate this pain or increase the recovery rate.
