The Back Crawl
You may look weird at the gym doing this, but who cares. The benefits are profound.
Do these for a few rounds of 30 seconds. You’ll be sore after, but this will help immensely w/ core strength

The Butt Walk
Another strange looking exercise that crushes the QLs. Hold a dumbbell or Kettlebell around your sternum as you move. Also do these for a few rounds of 30 seconds.

I had been doing the butt walk, but learned about the back crawl from @ellobosalvaje , so you know it’s legit
Combined these exercises with my favorite, the single arm farmers walk, and watch back pain disappear.
Enjoy the increased stability & protection against back injuries
