The exercises I avoid definitely are back hyperextensions, back squats and anything that directly loads my spine or causes excessive hyperextension. I see a Physical Therapist regularly so I'm firing all my muscles correcting and do a LOT of core stabilization work.Cassandra Forsythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01725791558679506576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292833559821687631.post-80561316246360033832009-09-16T22:35:48.161-04:002009-09-16T22:35:48.161-04:00Hi Cassandra, I really dig your blog, keep it up. ...Hi Cassandra, I really dig your blog, keep it up.
