Extension based lower back exercises

Everyday, the average person flexes their lower back (bending, sitting, lifting, etc.) 6000-9000 times, while only extending backward 200 times. This has the effect of pushing discs, the cartilage between the vertebral bodies, backward causing lower back pain. http://tinyurl.com/cvtc59

Extension based exercises are frequently prescribed by spine specialists to help reverse this process and strengthen the lower back. http://tinyurl.com/bd8ge4
