Got 3 minutes to fix your back?

Here’s the exercise > click this link to just cut to the chase!

“What else can I do to help it?”  Probably the #1 question I get.  That’s usually a hard question for me to answer because my suggestion could be too much for one person and too little for the next one.

However, there is one exercise that I always recommend.  It’s simple.  It’s free.  And, most importantly, it really works!  All you need is a place to sit and a few minutes to go through the motions.  It simulates the full range of motion that our grandparents and ancestors used to get in their daily work, but that we miss out on between our desks and automobiles.

Rules:

1 – you need to do as many reps as you are old of each of these three movements.  Unfortunately as the years go on it takes more energy to keep our heads above water – so a 60 year old spine needs more movement than a 20 year old spine.

2 – only move as far and as fast as you can comfortably.  This exercises is about quality and NOT speed.

3 – like everything else that’s good for you, you should make a habit of this BEFORE you need it.  But that’s a topic for another email…
