What To Do If You Have A Tendency To Throw Out Your Back
This is a simple routine of spinal mobility exercises that I have long found useful to those who have a tendency to "throw out" their back or experience chronic and intermittent back pain from various sprains and strains, including those involving intervertebral discs.
Whenever possible, it's best to do this simple warm-up routine for the spine after a bit of aerobic activity that has encouraged healthy blood flow throughout your body.
Put another way, it's generally not a good idea to jump right into this or any other exercise routine straight out of bed. Even a few minutes of gentle or brisk walking is enough to encourage healthy blood flow to the tissues of your spine which will make this routine all the more effective.
