I often do write. In fact, I write almost 12 hours a day and so, I suffer too much back pain. Good thing that I have read this article in a magazine, Natural Health - November 2008 Edition which help me a lot to gain back my strength after much back pain. It says that to get us started on a pain-prevention routine, Michele S. Olson, Ph.D., a professor of Physical Education and Exercise Science at the University of Alabama in Montgomery recommends pilates exercises. Here's how:
Come to your hands and knees and get into a push-up position: Align your hands under your shoulders, spread your finger for stability and straighten your arms. Then, come on to your toes, keeping you leg straight and your abdominals contracted. Keep your head, neck and spine aligned and gaze toward the mat. Keep your body on the same plane so there's a straight line form your head to your toes.
Inhale as you lift your leg as high as is comfortable, raising your heel toward the ceiling. Exhale and lower the leg. Repeat with the right leg. Keep your hips squared and pointed toward the mat at all times. Alternate lifting and lowering 8 to 12 times on each side to complete one set.
It is best recommended that you do a total of 3 sets several times a week.
