Plank

 

Begin in a push-up position, distributing your weight on your forearms and toes. Ensure your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles. Engage your core by pulling your navel towards your spine and hold this position for as long as possible without compromising your form. Gradually increase the duration as your core strength improves.

Superman Exercise

 

Lie face down on the floor with your arms extended in front of you. Simultaneously lift your arms, chest, and legs off the ground as high as possible, mimicking the flight of Superman. Hold for a few seconds while squeezing your lower back, then slowly lower back to the starting position. Repeat for several repetitions.

Deadlift

 

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a barbell with an overhand grip. Keep your back straight as you hinge at the hips and bend your knees slightly, lowering the barbell down your legs until your torso is nearly parallel to the floor. Engage your core and push through your heels to stand back up, pulling the barbell along your legs. Ensure your back remains straight throughout the movement to prevent injury.

Bird Dog Exercise

 

Start on your hands and knees in a tabletop position. Extend your right arm forward while simultaneously extending your left leg back, keeping both parallel to the ground. Maintain balance by engaging your core and ensuring your hips remain square to the floor. Hold for a few seconds, then return to the starting position and switch sides. Repeat for several repetitions.

Russian Twists

 

Sit on the ground with your knees bent and feet lifted off the floor. Lean back slightly while keeping your back straight to engage your core. Hold a weight or a medicine ball in your hands and twist your torso to the right, bringing the weight beside your hip, then twist to the left. Focus on using your core to control the movement rather than swinging your arms.

Glute Bridges

 

Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart. Place your arms at your sides with palms facing down. Tighten your abdominal muscles and glutes as you lift your hips towards the ceiling, creating a straight line from your shoulders to your knees. Hold for a moment, then lower back down. Repeat for several repetitions to strengthen your lower back and glutes.

Side Plank

 

Lie on your side with your legs stacked and your forearm directly under your shoulder. Engage your core and lift your hips off the ground, creating a straight line from head to feet. Hold this position while maintaining your balance and avoiding any sagging at the hips. Switch sides and repeat. This exercise effectively targets the obliques and lower back.

Reverse Hyperextensions

 

Position yourself face down on a high bench with your hips at the edge and your legs hanging down. Grab the sides of the bench for support. Engage your lower back and glutes to lift your legs upward until they are in line with your torso. Hold briefly before lowering them back down. This exercise targets the lower back and glutes, aiding in fat reduction.

Mountain Climbers

 

Begin in a plank position with your hands directly below your shoulders. Engage your core and keep your body straight as you quickly drive your knees towards your chest in an alternating fashion, as if climbing a mountain. Maintain a brisk pace while ensuring proper form to elevate your heart rate and enhance fat burning.

Leg Raises

 

Lie flat on your back with your legs extended straight. Place your hands under your glutes for support. Lift your legs towards the ceiling while keeping them straight, engaging your core and lower back muscles. Lower your legs back to the ground slowly but don't let them touch the floor to maintain tension in your muscles. This exercises targets your lower abs and lower back.

How to Combine Exercises for Losing Lower Back Fat

 

Plank and Mountain Climbers

 

  • Combine Plank with Mountain Climbers by starting with a 30-second plank to engage your core, then move directly into 30 seconds of mountain climbers. This combination maintains core strength while increasing cardiovascular intensity.

 

Superman Exercise and Reverse Hyperextensions

 

  • Combine Superman Exercise with Reverse Hyperextensions to target your lower back effectively. Perform several reps of the Superman exercise followed by reverse hyperextensions without rest to maintain focus on lower back engagement and endurance.

 

Deadlift and Glute Bridges

 

  • Alternate Deadlifts with Glute Bridges to work on both strength and activation of the posterior chain. Perform a set of deadlifts followed by glute bridges to enhance lower back and gluteal muscle strengthening.

 

Bird Dog Exercise and Russian Twists

 

  • Combine Bird Dog with Russian Twists by performing alternate sides of bird dogs, then immediately transition to Russian twists for oblique engagement. This sequence optimizes stability and rotational core strength.

 

Leg Raises and Plank

 

  • Integrate Leg Raises into a Plank routine by completing a set of leg raises and immediately transitioning into a plank to maintain core activation, particularly targeting the lower abdominal region.

Got questions? We have answers.

Do your plans include prescriptions and medications?

Curex plans cover everything from reviewing your medical intake to providing prescription medications, with free shipping included. There are no extra or hidden charges. Prescriptions are issued only after a medical provider reviews your information to confirm that the medication is suitable for you. Our service includes continuous support and regular follow-ups to ensure your treatment stays on track.

Our clinicians may order labs and additional medications for you, which would not be covered by the plan but for which you can use your insurance.

Please note: Compounded medications are tailored to individual needs or used in case of shortages, but they are not FDA-approved for safety or effectiveness. A prescription is required. Results may vary from person to person.

What medications do your providers prescribe?

We prioritize a personalized approach to your health. If your medical provider prescribes medication, options may include GLP-1 treatments such as compounded semaglutide (the active ingredient in Wegovy®* and Ozempic®*). Our providers prescribe only combination treatments not available at your local pharmacy that may include vitamin B12, etc. to help you achieve your goals faster.

Depending on your treatment goals, other medications such as metformin may also be considered. We recognize the importance of managing side effects, so your care plan might include medication to ease symptoms like nausea. Your well-being is always our top priority!

Please note that compounded medications are customized to meet individual patient needs and are not FDA-approved for safety or effectiveness. A prescription is necessary. Results may vary from person to person.

Curex and its pharmacy partners do not have any association with Novo Nordisk.

Will I be prescribed semaglutide if I sign up?

Your health journey is unique, and we tailor our care to match. Any prescriptions, including semaglutide, will be based on the expert assessment of the medical provider matched with you through our platform. You can trust that your treatment plan will be personalized to fit your specific needs. And if semaglutide is not prescribed, we will provide a full refund.

What is compounded medication?

Compounding involves creating customized medications to meet the specific needs of individual patients. For instance, a patient may require a liquid version of a medication that is only available in tablet form. Pharmacies can also compound medications using FDA-approved drugs that are on the FDA’s shortage list.

These compounded medications are made by state-licensed pharmacies that follow both federal and state regulations, including quality standards. However, when compounded in accordance with these laws, these medications are not subject to FDA approval and are not evaluated for safety or effectiveness.

Is compounded medication the same as generic medication?

Compounded medications differ from generic drugs. Generics require FDA approval by demonstrating bio-equivalence to the brand-name drug. In contrast, compounded medications are not FDA-approved. They are made based on a personalized prescription that may not be commercially available elsewhere or when a drug appears on the FDA’s shortage list. Compounding pharmacies must have the proper licensed facilities and comply with state and federal regulations before dispensing these medications.

Is insurance required?

No, Curex doesn’t require insurance. We offer clear and simple pricing, along with affordable medication options, making it easy and accessible to take care of your health.

Can I pay with an FSA or HSA card?

Yes! You can pay with your HSA or FSA card.

How much does treatment cost?

Semaglutide is priced at $149 for your first month, and $299 per month thereafter. This includes unlimited messaging with your medical provider, access to compounded medication at any dosage (if prescribed), and a user-friendly portal where you can manage your care plan and track your progress.

These prices do not include sales, promotions, or special offers.

Can you prescribe Ozempic®* or Wegovy®*?

Our providers focus on personalized medications and dosages that aren’t commercially available at your local pharmacy. While we don’t prescribe Ozempic®* or Wegovy®* directly, we may prescribe treatments containing the same active ingredient. These medications are specially compounded for you by a licensed pharmacy to meet your specific needs.

Are video visits with a provider required?

Our providers will review your information 100% online. Depending on where you live and the specifics of your medical history, our providers may require you to have a video visit or asynchronous visit via text message. If prescribed, you’ll get unlimited online access to message your provider as needed for follow-ups, adjustments, and answers to your questions.
