Strengthening the spine reduces stress on the spinal discs and joints, protects against injury and is one of the best ways to prevent back pain. Featuring standing and floor work, this rejuvenating workout will help develop a stable and aligned spine by strengthening the entire core musculature, from the abdominals to the entire back. With a strong back, you'll feel liberated and able to perform daily tasks with ease.
