I have major back problems(will likely need surgery) so exercises that involve bending my back or neck are nearly impossible for me to do. I already do planks and reverse crunches but I'd like to add a little more variety if possible! Anyone else out there with the same problem? Any other exercises that are easier on the back? Thanks in advance! (:

Yeah, me too. My physical therapist gave me planks, but I'm interested to hear what other ideas folks have.0

I get lower back pain and was told to strengthen my abs to help with the pain. I have been doing ab workouts from fitnessblender.com, they also have a back workout. Lots of Pilates moves.0
