Back strengthening exercises?
| Sun, 05-23-2004 - 4:07pm |
First, allow me to say "ouch!". I've been doing a lot of bending, stooping and carrying (yard work, housework) in the last few days and my lower back is really sore. I woke up this morning and could hardly straighten up ....and even though it got better after I sat for a bit with an ice pack, it was hurting when I tried to walk the dog. I seem to be rather susceptible to lower back strains - probably mainly due to the excess weight - and I'm wondering if anyone can suggest any simple strengthening exercises I can do? I saw an article the other day in "Woman's World" on lower-back exercises, but I don't think I'm going to be able to do THOSE moves for a good 50 pounds or so! I know I don't have any more serious problems with discs or anything - it's just regular over-use strain.
