Are you one of the millions of folks around the world who have back pain?  I am and it stinks.  For lots of us, exercising your ads is the solution.  OK… so you’ve got back pain… so do I – that’s why I have a close personal relationship with a chiropractor.  But what else can you do?  Well believe or not, exercising your Abs on a regular basis is one of the best ways I know to relieve back pain.  The reason?  The “core” muscles in your tummy area provide support for your back.  And if you’re a guy with a big gut like I used to have I bet your back is killing you – losing a few pounds will help that.  And one more thing… when you’re on the floor doing “crunches” this week make sure to keep your back in a neutral position… in other words, comfortable.  We used to say flatten your back into the floor… but that doesn’t work for everybody – especially if you have a bad back.  The goal is to relieve pain, not create it.  Just keep it comfortable… that way you can focus on the “burn” in your abs. Hey, it’s all about moving – do some now… so you can do more later.
