The aim of the master's thesis was to develop a six-week exercise program for the late stage of rehabilitation following lumbar disc herniation surgery. The program is based on principles of progressive training and includes exercises for core stabilization, muscle strengthening, flexibility, and balance. Each exercise is clearly described with execution instructions, its purpose, possible modifications, and more challenging variations, allowing for an individualized approach based on the participant’s capabilities. The theoretical part presents the anatomical foundations of the spine, mechanisms of injury, surgical and conservative treatment of disc herniation, and the course of rehabilitation after surgery. Based on a review of scientific literature, we found that a structured exercise program significantly contributes to pain reduction, improved functional abilities, and a lower risk of recurrence. The prepared program provides a professional foundation for practical application and represents a valuable contribution to comprehensive kinesiological care after lumbar disc herniation surgery.
