  • Hey Greenwald Tom, I have a question...

    How many reps of these exercises should I do?

  • @digitalbeing01

    Hi! I usually do between 20 and 30 reps.

  • I have to in the elasticiity of my lower back muscles. I have to try and touch mty toes keeping my lower back staight. I also cant sit with my legs straight and my back at the proper angle. I can also to the "cat" stretches... Is there anything else I can do that can help me increase the elasticity of my back??

  • A lot of people have problems with their lower back elasticity, so this is a pretty common problem. I would suggest to stretch your body as often as possible and do it slowly, with controlled moves. By time, there definitely will be some progress.

  • Great video! Thank you for uploading.

  • I dont respond to videos very often, but this was simple and strait to the point, thanks for the advice, I have service connected back problems and the military medical care is a joke. Thanks for the tips.

  • thanks alot this video helped so much! i favorite'd it right away :)

  • My lower back muscles had a spasm while I was at work (FedEx Cargo Handler) and now my back is always sore, thanks to these exercises I feel great again, thanks!

  • I've gotten many of these from my physical therapists over the last 2 years. The very first one here: Cat/Camel is what I was told to do daily & found it start to aggravate my back more....anyhow now I am in Yoga...

  • @bofo2919 Hi! Great to hear that you are working out again :) There is no need to separate abs and lower back. Especially if you are training for strength, injury prevention, functionality. Also remember that there are many more great core muscle exercises. For example go to google and type in "rotational core exercises".

  • @GreenwaldTom Hi Tom. I´m sorry i haven´t been in contact. College had me stressed out. I now have time to work out until i get a job. I´m starting to run in the beach and its working really great. I have a good metabolism so i sweat a lot and i´m able to gain or lose weight very fast. I´m starting to do this excercises again. Do you think i should work the abs the same day i´m doing this cause i read you said its good to train all your core muscles while doing this. Thanks!

  • You're welcome and see more from you (:
