i think my back is trying to kill me

Unfortunately, my back is out yet again, because of that stupid spina bifida on that last vertebrae, and it slipping forward and down and cracking along the side. Degenerative disc disease really, really hurts ( Read more... )

I have alot of lower back problems too Nico. For that, I use an excersize ball and my physiotherapist showed me some excersizes to strengthen my lower core muscles.

It's much cheaper than buying inversion table. :P

Never thought of using that exercise ball I have. Thanks! :3

I admit I haven't been doing my physical therapy, I've gotten out of habit. >_> It's just hard to keep up when when all the things they want me to do take almost 2 hours. x_x

I'll see how things go with that.

no problem! ^_^

Well - try doing one stretch a day for your core muscles, do it for less than five minutes (or when you're not even thinking about it) and just proceed with the stretching.

Seriously - phyisotherapists are doing their job to keep us all in shape, but I've been doing worse since my accident since I haven't been doing the excersizes. But I am returning to the gym so at least that helps.

In any event. I try to never think about when I'm going to stretch. Sounds weird but I just let my body do the thinking on that part. XP

In any event, I hope that helps. I think my physiotherapist had shown me one excersize where it helps with your core muscle when do this excersize called 'the plank' but on your e-ball. I think it's also called 'the bridge'.

HAH! e-ball. I'm calling it that from now on! XP

I popped over here to comment because I didn't want the Snopes feed knowing my business, but I noticed in your profile you said you're involved in the local BDSM scene?
Being in a D/s relationship is something I've always been interested in, but I really have no knowledge about it or where I can find like-minded people in BR. If it's not too much trouble, I was wondering if maybe you could point me to some resources or such? ^^;

And I'm sorry to read about your back! although, this post is a few days old, so I hope you're feeling better now. :3
