Answer by Anunu
I would highly recommend attending a Pilates class in your neighbourhood. It’s best to get some guidance when trying to start these types of exercises, especially if you’re experiencing pain or recovering from an injury.
Pilates are amazing. This workout was designing to assist dancers during “off seasons” to keep in shape and stay strong from the inside out. They are life-changing exercises.
If you haven’t seen a physiotherapist, this might also be a good idea, as they could assist with the medical point of view of getting you strong and healthy again.
Good luck!

Answer by justaquestion
yes, try yoga because it’s good for increasing your flexibility along with back flexibility. I got my dad to do yoga and he said his back felt a little better.
Another solution is get a massage/visit chiropractor.

What are some good exercises for strengthening my back?
Question by blitzcrackunders: What are some good exercises for strengthening my back?
I’ve always had a bit of back pain, and I figure I’m tired of it, so I want to start some exercises for my back. I have access to several gyms at my university, but I would prefer exercises that I could do every day, or twice a day, at home. So, pilates/yoga type stuff would work well. I don’t have any dumbbells.
Exercises, not stretches.

Answer by Maccherone Pazzo
Hang from a bar and relax your spine while you are hanging.
There’s no better way once you know how to do it.

Physical therapy exercises for back and abdominal strength?
Question by Alie C: Physical therapy exercises for back and abdominal strength?
my father has severe lower back pain. the doctor suggested Physical therapy 3 times a week for a month at 100 dollars per session.
He has gone to a PT b4 and they just give a pamphlet and make you do it at home mostly. for that $ $ $ its ridiculous.
What are some exercises he can do for lower back and abdominal strength?
He has a very large belly, and emphysema. It is very difficult for him to stand for long periods of time or even short periods of time without sever lower back pain.
Can you help us save $ $ $ and suggest some safe exercises?
my dad is 68. He has emphysema. he weight about 265. he had surgery for Acute Aortic Aneurism about 2 years ago. he also had ball joint replacement hip surgery about 15 years ago.
According to the doctor, the reason he needs the physical therapy is because, as my dad puts it in laymans terms “the skwishy fluid bits inbtwn the discs in my back are oozing out”. haha.. if that helps any…

Answer by july
These exercises are intended to relieve sciatica discomfort. However, sciatica discomfort is almost always a result of a lower back injury, so the exercises will work well for general lower back pain:

I can also recommend these:

http://www.fda.gov/fdac/features/1998/298_exer.html
I had a partly-herniated disc in my lower back. My insurer refused to authorize an MRI or Physical Therapy, so I put myself on a Home Exercise Program using many of the above exercises.
I’m assuming you’ve seen a physician to rule out a more serious problem, such as a compression fracture. These exercises may hurt at first; it took me 3 months to resolve my lower back pain.

Q&A: What are some good exercises for your back?
Question by ~Tim~: What are some good exercises for your back?
Lately I’ve been experiencing back pain. (I’m 17, 6’4″, male) I’m on my feet a lot at work, and I’m pretty flatfooted, though I always use shoes with good support. I’ve been doing pushups and curl ups in the morning, evening, and just as I can. Are there any other exercises, practiced, or routines that can help decrease back pain and improve posture? My posture used to be pretty bad but has since improved. However it still needs work because I’m still slightly hunched. Any advice?
